Petey: Mmeep. Alice: What's that song? Petey: It's not a song. It's the note "A". Alice: A? A?! I know that letter. Alice: A is the first letter in Alice! That's what everybody tells me! Alice: You're playing a song about me! Petey: Hey! Don't you'll bend my oboe!

A is also the first letter in annoy, agitate, aggravate, abrade…

Awww! (“Awww” also begins with an A; so does “also” and the word “angel” in your Little Angel tee-shirt, Alice!) So does “adore,” as in “Alice adores her A-note big brother”!

@PacopuddyI think that’s his music on the floor. Oboes don’t generally require spit pans, I think, although oboists do seem to spend a lot time running cloths through the instrument.
Pithy (yeah, right) about 12 years ago
“A” is a good note for Petey to be working on. It’s the one the principal oboist usually gets the honor of playing for the rest of the orchestra before every performance.

I didn’t know you could bend an oboe. I also didn’t know Alice was strong enough to do that in the first place! :-D

I’m thinking that probably-Aspergerish Petey is worried about himself getting bent.
