Intonation How to tune a sax?

I will forgo the enquiry as to your actions and the reasons thereof which enabled the acquisition of super glue and reindeer snot on your fingers.

The super glue was quickly fixing the low C bumper that fell off (above) the roe deer snot was from cleaning the bird feeder after a deer used it for Christmas dinner.

From “The Meaning of Liff” by Douglas Adams and John Lloyd:

Sutton and Cheam (ns.): Sutton and Cheam are the two kinds of dirt into which all dirt is divided. 'Sutton' is the dark sort that always gets on to light-coloured things, and 'cheam' the light-coloured sort that always clings on to dark items. Anyone who has ever found Marmite stains on a dress-shirt, or seagull goo on a dinner jacket a) knows all about sutton and cheam, and b) is going to some very curious dinner parties

We have raccoons here who stick their nose against the windows and there is an expression "raccoon snot trail", which is very hard to get rid of. Worse than possum.

Oh, you had to mention raccoons. Grrrrrr... They (a whole famn damily of them) used to climb atop my house to get the juniper berries of a tall tree, then crap on the roof that drained into my cistern. Grrrr... One of 'em got so blinin' fat that he fell right through the corrugated plastic roof of my carport. Grrrr...

Ah, they're so cute... (grrrr...)

Makes the cat snot on our windows look positively tame.


Oi! Mods! I do think these posts could be usefully split into a thread about animal snot...
"You and the Night and the Mucous"?
"It snot What You Do, It's the Way That You Do It"?

We own a house in the country that has had long stretches of being uninhabited. I can tell you positively that a raccoon WILL fit through a dryer vent. Then he WILL leave his calling cards, for months on end, in your empty laundry room.

I wore a full respirator to clean THAT mess up. Then nailed a 2 x 8 across the hole.

My point is that these pitch-inflected notes aren't "out of tune", they're supposed to be that way.

It is better to say that tuning is not relevant for pitch inflected notes.
