Uhh..."Riding Lawnmower"? What the hell is THAT!??? Isn't that why we have kids? To mow the lawn?
(up here a "riding snowblower" would be more appropriate; especially so far this year!)
Edit: Anyway...I failed to make myself clear and as a result believe I left the impression that I thought the Lawler cornet was TOO expensive. Far from it. The problem I had is that, "for what I wanted to pay and the amount of playing that I do" I couldn't justify buying that high a quality or class of cornet. I have had the chance to snag a Schilke XA1 and the same logic applied in that case (it would have been about $1,200 US used). When I bought the Getzen I was seriously cosidering a Kanstul Custom Class or even Signature cornet; again...when you apply the exchange rate that starts to be getting awful close to "oh the wife is gonna kill me now money". And since the cornet would be of no use to me if I were dead..... I opted for a life sentence instead.
