Dear list members,

Does anyone happen to have the full text to "While shepherds washed their
socks by night"?

As many of you know, I am writing a book ORG-ANTICS, a collection of
side-splitters about all things organic, anecdotes, limericks, cartoons,
parodies etc.

I'm trying to wind this up so I can get it out by Christmas. I am still
hoping for more funnies from the esteemed members of this list.

As I have said before, I will send to all contributors, a PDF¡¡of music
from
my catalog of reprints, arrangements and transcriptions. It now numbers 304
pieces (right now finishing up the overture to NORMA by Bellini) which I
have been engraving since 1996.

I'll send, in gratitude, one piece for every anecdote-- Wild Weddings,
Funny Funerals and Liturgical Laffs are especially welcome.

If you do not have my catalog, please request it when you send your gem to
me so you can choose your gift piece.

Organically yours,


Vic Searle in Tokyo (who will return to the Mitsukoshi Wurlitzer from
October after an absence of five years.)
