Yes. No boat. Has big motorhome, instead.

carrying their trombones

The trombone wasn't bad. I carried one for a couple of years
before figuring out it was more fun camping with the accordion you
didn't need a whole band to play with.

At one time, I had 9 different accordions, but only have 3 now. I
don't play them much any more. Internet is too addictive.

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.

Hey, SWS! I am Irish and I resemble that remark.

You pee in your boat?

I would, of course, if my other choice was to pee in whiskey.

OK try this one.

Old man and old woman sitting on the porch, rockin' away. Old lady
gets up and walks around over to the old man and slaps him right off
the frekin' chair. The old man laying on the porch asks the old woman
why she did that, she anwered, "thats for being a lousy lover for the
last 50 years. About an hour later, the old woman gets on over and
slaps the old man right off his chair. Again, the old mans asks her
why she did that, she answers " that's for having a small, well, er,
winky". About an hour later the old man gets up and slaps the old
woman right off the frekin' porch. The old woman looks up and asks the
old man why he did that, to which he answers, "that's for knowing the
difference".

OK, goodnight...

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.

Drums man, all you had to carry was a pair of bones, and those were
considered cool
