Tickling the Ivories!
The Music Editor (ME) has a dillema. He has this accoustic guitar which Monz helped him pick out at the local guitar center, several years ago circa his birthday, when he had delusions of teaching himself how to play desipte his fear of blisters and callouses. Despite not having progressed farther than being able to play a clunky version of the main riff to "Blister in the Sun," the guitar has great sentimental value to him (after all, it was the source of a fun Monz adventure!) But now he's thinking he may make more progress with one of those "teach yourself" keyboards by Casio, the ones with the keys that light up and built-in lessons. The pros and cons keep the poor ME awake at night. (You might finally be able to make music! Girls don't dig keyboards, they dig guitars! You could practice without disturbing the neighbors! You could disturb the neighbors!)
Meanwhile, Monz struggled with whether he should clear The Place of noisy young invaders with his mighty bellow, or stay put and dig his footlong veggie delite on wheat. Unlike the ME, Monz was decisive in his decision.
