That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for September 04, 2020

Gustav was a real weirdo. He played music to make women put on their clothes.

Carol just wished that Gustav would stop fiddling around and come to bed already.

I was mistaken; you can go wrong with sex and violins!

Once again Kevin got so wrapped up in his violins he forgot about the sex.

I don’t get it: there seems tom be some sort of disjuncture in this painting – the guy is playing violin while the woman appears to have just applied foot fungus ointment.

A couple having a romantic evening, in the Covid era.

“Bjorn, playing the violin is another thing you’re not good at.”

Later that evening, Tom reflected and realized that this is the same point all of his dates went south.

What is a C note?

Jack Benny, the early years.

sighing, she thinks, there’s too much violins in this relationship…

What she really wanted was more cowbell.

All wordplay aside, this is a peculiar setting for a painting. Fully dressed in background playing violin, woman apparently getting dressed on the kitchen table. Not your typical date night.

Some people like to smoke after sex, Ivan was always inspired to play his violin. It was in this very moment he wrote his hit tune “You can leave your corset on!”

His rendition of “The Stripper” made her want to put her clothes back on.

Peggy thought a city hoe down is quite a bit different than a country hoe down.

I worked with a fellow who had to tell the ladies, “Money first, then the clothes.”

Jacques and his Stradivarius play for the Madame.

“Put on your bedclothes, put on your nightshirt, fiddle about, fiddle about”….with apologies to you know…….

Part of the cost of going to this acupuncturist was listening to his (awful) violin playing.

Unfortunately, Pierre took the request for an “encore” , LITERALLY !

Lady Bluestocking tries to figure out what went wrong….did her deodorant fail?

Momma always said I could charm the socks ON a girl.

The lady is sex on the hoof/ yet the fiddler is clearly aloof/ it’s a criminal waste/ and not to my taste/ send the fiddler back up to the roof.

One gets the distinct impression/ it’s the end of a modeling session/ but the chap with the fiddle/ is a bit of a riddle:/ is he crucial, or just a digression?

The Stripper’s Bump And Grind song wasn’t very provocative when played on the violin.

“Uhmm… Honey-babe… Hint, hint?”

Watson finally had photographic proof that Sherlock Holmes truly was asexual. Now, how to use that information…

Tom was really into S&M, it was the tenth time he played “Pop Goes The Weasel” Louder and louder, faster and faster, he refused to hear her cries of the safe word.

The musician misunderstood when she said “Voila.”

Personally, I don’t think I’d want to be eating anything off that table.

She fell for it because he had made a perfect pitch.

From G-string to G-spot.

Man, she thought, he really plays “The Stripper” more up-tempo than I’ve EVER heard it before!

In spite of his bowing and scraping, Olga couldn’t shake the notion that Sven was just stringing her along; sort of too much fiddle and not enough “hey-diddle-diddle.”

As the artist diddled with his fiddle, Alice gave up on a having a little diddle.

or… “I thought you said ‘etchings’ not ‘scratchings’”

In The Faerie Queene (VI.×.10-18), when the poet’s alter ego is heard playing bagpipes for his sweetheart on a sunny hill, the three Graces are so delighted at the sound that they appear and bring a further hundred naked maidens with them, to dance in circles around her. Maybe the fiddler here is hoping to achieve a similar effect!

“After the sitting”? Not ‘laying’?

Gerald had explained to her that he needed the violin playing to calm down from their session. But she noted how “glad he was to see her” and wished he would think of another way to relax.

Pierrot fiddles while Roma burns!

Celest just noticed the erection was her or was he love with the music.

A C FOR A SEE…….. Such a deal!!

I C’D Lolita, Now that’s beautiful music!

When he said he wanted to fiddle around, that wasn’t what she thought he meant.

Geez, you get holidays off, too?

I’ve been forced to resort to Mike du Jour. Help !!
