Break Time #11

Okay, so I'm a little late on yesterday's post. Rather and type out an excuse, I'll just finish the post. I had to create a band out of items in my office. This was pretty fun because I do have a lot of bubble wrap, but that's not a very fun instrument for the coworkers. I have had that McDonald's commercial stuck in my head. The one where he makes a tune out of various things at Mickey D's, especially the part where he shakes the bag, and his friend "Hoots". Everything else makes sense except the Hoot! Who Hoots when they are satisfied with a Big Mac? Who is ever satisfied with a Big Mac?

Those life mysteries have led me astray in the post. I had to create instruments and then arrange them in "sections" for playing. Up front you have the two hard hitters of the group, the drum and bass. The tall tube of glued tape rings serves as a good drum, and the Cowboys canteen serves as the a hooting thing and can sound like the bass. Next we have the high tones of the child rattle, giving the tune a little bit of Latin flavor. Then we have the strings providing the tune with a little bit of class, or hick flavor, depending on the way you pick the strings. Finally we have the clicker section with the stapler and staple remover. To stifle the obvious joke, no they would not cancel eachother out. There you have it, the Desk-estra.
