Bring Along Your Trombone.

   If you are anything like me, you may find yourself in social situations and find it difficult making conversation. Sometimes it feels like the cocktail party was almost invented as a torture device for the socially awkward. Weddings, Company Christmas Parties, Showers(forget it), Kid Birthdays and such,  all require social intercourse, often with mere aquaintences, even outright strangers.Without the recourse of two fisted, oblivion drinking, I resort to my default topics of :
"How A Hyena Kills"
"The Symptoms and Stages of Death From Smallpox"
"Invasion of Giant Hogweed, a Noxious Invasive Plant"
So most people would  rather hear " I brought my trombome and thought I'd play a few tunes." Otherwise  it's ,  "....Then the antelope's entrails become entangled in it's rear  legs ...." or worse.
