Random Excess spake thus:

Yes; now you know about all the viola jokes, right? Like:

Q: What's the difference between a viola and a trampoline? A: You take your shoes off to jump on a trampoline.

And this trickier one:

Q: What's the difference between a seamstress and a violist? A: The seamstress tucks up the frills.

But I also know one of the few *violin* jokes:

Q: Did you know that violins and violas are actually the same size? A: No, I did not know that. Q: Yeah; it's just that violinists' heads are so much bigger.

the OTHER Mike spake thus:

Um, I think that's the point.

By the way, that joke is about an orchestra conductor. Anyone know any good jokes about railroad conductors?

How can you tell a trombone players kid on the playground ?

he doesn't swing and has trouble with the slide.

Did you hear the one about the violinist that wanted to be a drummer but he was just a beat off ?

Yes, I'm a high school band director and I do know the difference between a moose and my band.

the OTHER Mike spake thus:

You mean your band has *antlers* in it? How weird.
