Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes
An elderly couple had dinner at another couple’s house, and after eating, the wives left the table and went into the kitchen.
The two gentlemen were talking, and one said, ‘Last week we went out to a new restaurant and it was really great.. I would recommend it.’
The other man said, ‘What is the name of the restaurant?’ The first man thought and thought and finally said, ‘What is the name of that
flower you give to someone you love? You know…. The one that’s red and has thorns.’ ‘Do you mean a rose?’
‘That’s the one,’ replied the man. He then turned towards the kitchen and yelled, ‘Rose,
what’s the name of that restaurant we went to last night?’ 😳

Wednesday’s Quizzler is….
I’m full of keys whenever I’m made
I came about wooden when the Renaissance played
Hundreds of years later, I was divided
And two new keys to me were provided
Then in 1760, and that’s forty years later
Three keys were added by Florio, Gedney, and Potter
Around the 80’s of the century mentioned
I was used by Mozart and Haydn
Over the years, new keys were gained
In the 1830’s, Beethoven used me to entertain
Near the end of the 1800’s, or the 19th century
I was used by Brahms, Strauss, and Tchaikovsky
Now, modern renditions are made of me
Without my holes, I wouldn’t be
What am I?
Answer: The Flute!
The keys are the sounds made.
Flutes were wooden in the Renaissance era.
Then in 1720, the middle joint was divided in two, and in turn, two new keys were added.
Forty years later, in 1760, three new keys were added.
In the 1780’s (the century mentioned), Mozart and Haydn used the flute in their symphonies.
1782 through 1827, keys were added.
In the 1830’s, Beethoven used the flute in his symphonies.
At the end of the 19th century, the flute appeared in the orchestral pieces of Brahms, Strauss, and Tchaikovsky.
Now, flutes are made from metal, wood, and plastic.
