I thought he was a cowherd, John.

Re: The question is...."Are YOU on the square....with God?"

Gargoyle, I took special care in driving home because in the hour that it sat in the warm church, the dulcimer went dismally flat. I thought I could just pick it up and play it. Wrong!

I did't want to have to explain to St Peter why I played something so out of tune in the Lord's house. However the Lord seems to tolerate pipe organ, the second-wobbliest instrument, so maybe I would have been in the clear.
