    If any of you were hesitant to learn the cello because of its effects on your manhood, fear no more. The condition known as “cello scrotum” has finally been revealed as a hoax (although this would already be obvious to anyone who has ever actually played a cello):
    http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/01/28/uk.cello.scrotum.hoax/index.html

    Some related medical conditions I saw listed in another article are “fiddler’s neck”, “flautist’s chin”, and “guitarist’s nipple”. A few others I’ve heard are “sousaphone neck hump”, “trombone valve beard”, and “English horn virginity.”

    Yo yo MA!

    Rich,

    Great news for the cello players!

    “Trombone valve beard?” Luckily,I never suffered from that affliction. Thank goodness,because I was goofy-looking enough during my trombone playing years;that condition added to it would have “done me in.” :)

    Funny stuff, Rich!

    Those afflictions remind me of Stephen Colbert’s disclaimers when he does his Faux Pharmaceutial company bit! :)
