The sound was indescribable (although if I had to describe it in words I would say that it sounded something like like an old upright piano falling off a dolly and hitting a tile floor...) The overall aural effect was made even more dramatic by the screems of the Miss_____, the music teacher as the instrument went over. A sad day.<BR/><BR/>There must be a tradition for this sort of thing in Milwaukee. A year later a venerable old Hubbard harpsichord fell off the end of a truck onto the street near the local university It did not survive.<BR/><BR/>There is a piano moving company in this city called "Hernia Movers."<BR/>their motto is "The Potantate of Totin' Freight."<BR/><BR/>Perhaps they would have done a better job...<BR/><BR/>Jonathan BrodieGushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11376843955272495732noreply@blogger.com
