A drummer went to the music shop. When the salesman saw him he asked "what can I do for you?"
"Well," said the drummer, "I'm tired of everyone saying I'm dumb just because I'm a drummer so I decided I'd come down here and pick out a new instrument to play."
"Okay," said the salesman," if you need help just ask."
After looking around the store the drummer came back to the counter and said,"I think I've decided. I'll take that red trumpet there and that accordian over there."
"Well," said the salesman, "you can take the fire extingisher but you can't have my radiator."
