Thread Name: International Accordion Awareness Month
Subject: RE: International Accordion Awareness Month
Someone gave Chongo Chimp a used accordion last month. He tried playing it some and was getting half-decent sounds out of it, but some of the keys were sticking and he finally got mad and pitched it out a 3rd storey window onto a cobblestone street below.

Gawd...the thing made a HELL of an awful sound when it hit! Pieces of accordion flew everywhere. I guess it's beyond fixing now.

Chongo didn't want to be stigmatized anyway...you know, the old organ-grinder and monkey thing? He's sensitive about stuff like that.
