Definitely interesting and a cool thread!

That last one could also get the "odd" nod as well.

Related to the watch, I know that builders used to write their names on the materials they used to build farmhouses and such. An old colleague of mine was building a house with material salvaged from other buildings, and he found quite a few.

Inside our piano, there are also notes from several of the piano tuners who've worked on it. Pretty cool, that... ;)

Perhaps they wrote "For a good time call Larry ###-####"

-If there are any board members who's name is indeed Larry, no offence intended. Just grabbed the first name that came to mind.-

What may appear to be abnormal to some, are quite normal to others. If you ever plan to visit the kingdom let me know in advance, I have some strong contacts there.

Ba-dum-BUM! Can I get a B with three flats?

I should say that the piano tuners signed their names and dated them, indicating ownership of their handiwork.

As for board members named Larry.... you probably don't have to look much past the list of mods ;)
