And why not add Pickles and Peppers to round out the mix?

[tdub1941]

Paul, - One of my favorites is "Too Much Mustard in the Pot," or is it just "Too Much Mustard" ? ?

[idasynco]

It's actually titled "Tres Moutarde", Tom.

Au revoir, Ida.

[tdub1941]

Arkansas English would be "tree mustard,"

I'm getting more confuseder and sooflayed as we go.

Now once and for all, what in the dickens is the name of this tune?

[idasynco]

"Sweet Pickles" with "Dill Pickles", "Pickles and Peppers" and way "too much mustard".

I'm going to have to double up on my Alzheimers medication as it seems I'm falling deeper and deeper into a state of confusion over this song title. Maybe I can have an extra long therapy session with my psychiatrist on my daily visit tomorrow. I hope he doesn't have those extra big guys in white suits waiting for me with another straight jacket like the did the other time when I did the Monkey artwork with my feet.

My oh my, life is complicated!

May I recommend the Feathered Peacock Pose, a yoga move to calm the anxious mind.

[tdub1941]

I saw a picture of the FPP on Google images a minute ago. I discovered last year that that particular yoga position may be out of the question in my case, as I am a long time sufferer of a double articulated flamboyance of the saskatchawan intersection. This condition explodes in to a radical proxnadle fligerate when aggravated by doing the "Feathered Peacock Yoga Pose." Woe unto me if I try?

[idasynco]

Hum, perhaps then may I suggest a Sweet Pickle covered with a crushed cholinesterase inhibitor chased with memantine.

[tdub1941]

Ida,

There you go again try'n to impress us po country folk with that there hi falut'n medical talk!

This is Sweet Pickles Rag, I love this one. There was a seminar about the composer too...Theron Catlan Bennett (as George E. Florence) The music can be found in the "Ragtime Rarities" book. I can speak from experience that it is a very fun one to play,not too hard. One could follow up with "Dill Pickles" by Charles Johnson for the not so sweet of tooth as well!

Thanks! I fixed it. TW
