Thanks to Madelines patience with us, her incredibly thorough analysis
of our needs, her research, and of course her creativity, she was able
to develop this outstanding logo.

Eb Treble
Bass Clef
Tuba (bass clef one octave lower)
If you want versions in other keys or want more tunes added, feel free to contact me.

This page has been intentionally left blank. You have not been ripped off. This had to
be done in order to avoid page turns in the middle of a tune. You might think this
would be a good to place to make jokes or witty observations such, Did you ever
notice that Peter OToole is the only Hollywood actor to have a first and last name
with a phallic reference? But I wont be doing any such thing. So stop reading this.
It is a waste of your time.
I wont waste your time with other foolish jokes. It is just a blank page. So why are
you reading this? I told you earlier to stop. You are wasting your time.
Well since you cant just turn the page, then I will take advantage of your reading
interest to see if you might be interested in buying my time machine. It is 100%
operational and fully functioning. Everything works just fine and it runs very smoothly.
The unit has a minor design flaw in that it plugs into the wall to operate. As a result,
when the time travel starts the machine immediately loses its power source and you
land back in the present.
I have been developing this time traveling machine for years and am now too tired to
do the work involved in converting it to run off batteries. It should be an easy fix for
a home handyman.

Well, there ain't no use - of me workin' so hard
When I got a woman - in the boss man's yard.
