I found both of these stories to be surprising and entertaining. #1 - I've heard of dueling banjos, now dueling accordions. Who chooses the songs? #2 - Tough date! Most men fib a bit to make an impression, don't ya know?
Hahah these were great. The first one just plain has a fun reveal, but I love how the second one implies so much normalcy even though the scenario is bananas. Hilarious.
I had 2 thoughts. First thankfully it wasn't bagpipes and second, does he still have to pay for dinner?
1. I suppose it’s all regional—accordions here, bagpipes elsewhere. 2. Yes, if only for the shame of it.

1. I assumed they weren’t so much songs as zydeco-jazz solos, if such a thing exists. 2. Yes, but not on this date they don’t.
Beautiful "twisties" Even Simone Biles couldn't have done better!!
Hah! Thanks Jill!
And thanks so much for the comment!
Yikes! Accordions! Brutal. The only thing worse would be bagpipes! Very clever, Mr. Curtis!
Thanks Sharron! Absurdist humor sometimes gets the ol writing blood moving.
Indeed it does! Witness my “Riding on the Metro Bus” series. Totally absurd… but true.https://sharronbassano.substack.com/p/riding-the-metro-bus-2?
Yes!! So good. Sorry I missed that one!

Hahahaha! Loved them! Accordians at dawn 😂
Sometimes you gotta give the writing a shake of the bellow 😉
