duh...maybe some of us folksingers are just s_l_o_w.

years ago, I had just returned to Wichita Kans from my first foray to Wash DC, and I had acquired a bumper sticker reading.."Take an AUTOHARP player to dinner"...which I put on my 'harp case.

One day, I was sitting in the park, waiting my turn to play in the local pick-up volleyball game and playing tunes, the case in front of me...up rides a pleasant young coed on a bicycle...stops in front of me...looks at me, the 'harp, the case...and as I finish the tune I was playing, asks..."What do you eat?"

It took me a long few moments to connect the question to the bumper sticker, and to this day, I have NO idea what I answered!

(similar things have happened since...so far I'm batting 2 for 6 or so..*grin*....married #2 and had 19 years of durn nice......music)
