[Dixielandjazz] Leader's Speech with 'attachment'

Dear Bob,

The attachment sign means that you're NOT sending your posts in plain text.
Most of the list members whom this affects are using AOL, but you're not -
you're using Outlook Express 4.72.3110.1.  (How do I know this?  I'm a genius,
that's all :-).

In a recent post I said "If you're using Outlook Express, click on 'Tools'
then 'Options' then the 'Send' tab and make sure the 'Plain Text' option is
selected under 'Mail Sending Format', then click 'OK' ".  The procedure may be
different for you, since the version of OE you're using is pretty ancient, but
there'll be some way for you to switch to plain text.

All the best (love from Jude),

Tony.

Dave
A little jazz humor from my friend in Santa Rosa, Dave Frey...top-flight banjo
player !

For all of the band leaders out there! :~) Careful!

A society wedding band is getting it together on the stand, waiting for the
crowd to come in.  The leader is taking the time to exercise his authority.

"I'm sick of you guys showing up at the last minute.  When I say eight
o'clock, I want the music to start at eight.  I don't want you
walking into the room at eight!"

The drummer gives him a "chigga dum".

"And I also expect you morons to dress like you want to be here.  Tuxedo means
tuxedo, not the upper half of an old black suit with
a bow tie."

The drummer gives him a "bucketafish".

"... and shoes;  Not black sneakers!"

"Badoompbump"

"... and a clean shirt and a shave.  I don't want any bums on my band!"

"Chiggadagump, crash".

"And if I find out who's making that noise, he's fired!"
