They were a great couple of beatniks.<\/p>\n<p>I was showing my husband how to take apart a piano about ten years ago, and opened up the bottom.  There was a dessicated joint held between the strings, all eaten except for the paper.  I guess it had been left there by someone who wanted a secret stash, but then forgot about it.  Darned short-term memory loss.  I assume it was from the club and not from my dad &#8211; at least, that&#8217;s what I choose to believe.  There are cigarette burns on the top.  There&#8217;s an oddly mildewed patch on the lower left.  I don&#8217;t care, it&#8217;s the piano I had when I as a kid, and maybe the F sharp sticks a little, but it got me through practicing for competitions in high school, and I love it.<\/p>\n<p>One day, maybe I&#8217;ll have time to make something to grace the top.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This would look so beautiful across the top of my piano.
