I wish I could claim it was original with me, but it’s not even by an American or an Englishman… I first heard it from the Austrian liaison official for our musical institute in Graz in 1978. He also told us another one, but it is not appropriate on a family blog… I mean, it is even less appropriate than the one I retold…

that kind of stuff can happen when you over-leverage your positions.
