[Dixielandjazz] was Mel Brooks/ now farting :))

[tcashwigg at aol.com]

The honorable if not questionable Washboardist and from previous posts 
on this subject I assume to be a farter extraordinaire Bill Gunter 
would be the expert on that Gary, or at least he knows some expert 
farters who even have a website as I recall.

Enlighten us again Bill :))   That is if you still hang around with 
those OLD FARTS :))

Cheers

Tom Wiggins Mr. Foolishness to some :))

   Is the farting scene just before Mongo's entrance considered jazz 
too?
