Don't know if the piano is really purple or whether it's a trick of the light . . .

Zorba's piano looks like it was slapped together from potter's field coffins. Very sinister.

Now that you mention it, it does!

But please don't refer to that wreck as "Zorba's Piano"!!!!

I mean, I don't have a Steinway, but my ol' faithful 1918 Hobart M. Cable uber upright is better than that!

Of course I was refering to the ghastly claviered specter so diligently sought out and provided for our titilation and horror by the incomparable Veiled Male. I did not mean to imply that it was his personal instrument, which, of course, is no doubt decently veiled.

"Incomparable"? Incomparable to what?! A two headed cow?!

My wife put a long doily on top of our pie-anna - does that count as a veil?
