Coors Lite it is. And I'll even put some Land Shark Lager in the larder
for you.
I've been seriously thinking about a bass guitar, but I'd like something
more manly. Maybe a tuba.
I'll keep a light on for you.

Forget the tuba. Not you.

You need a double belled Euponium.

Or a good old Sousaphone:

I played the tuba in junior high school. Because I was one of the biggest
guys in band and played trumpet and mellophone, the teacher decided I should
be the tuba player. It sucks as an intrument. Hard to play at parties and
is heavy to carry.

The smart kids in grade school/junior high played flutes, or at the worst, a
trumpet. I always felt bad for the poor suckers climbing on the school bus
carrying their trombones, tuba or sousaphone.

Something they didn't think about when they picked an instrument.

My Uncle had a double belled Euponium. As a kid I played trumpet and always
got a kick out of trying his Euponium.

Two Norwegians were adrift in a life boat following a dramatic escape from a
burning freighter. While rummaging through the boat's provisions, one of the
men stumbled across an old lamp. Secretly hoping that a genie would appear,
he rubbed the lamp vigorously. To the amazement of the castaways, a genie
came forth. This particular genie, however, stated that he could only
deliver one wish, not the standard three.

Without giving much thought to the matter the man blurted out, "Make the
entire ocean into beer!" The genie clapped his hands with a deafening crash,
and immediately the entire sea turned into the finest brew ever sampled by
mortals.

Simultaneously, the genie vanished. Only the gentle lapping of beer on the
hull broke the stillness as the men considered their circumstances. One man
looked disgustedly at the other whose wish had been granted. After a long,
tension filled moment, he spoke: "Nice going idiot! Now we're going to have
to **** in the boat!"

It's funny how jokes change. First time I heard that one, it was
whiskey and Irish.

You're turning into a regular Jimmy Buffett. Buy a guitar yet?
I may be heading down there for a visit. Coors Light, if you please.

Bagpipes. Two reasons. One, the major annoyance factor. Two, only a
manly man could wear a skirt sans underwear and play with a bag.
