Wait, Timmy is a “Banjo Man” and yet his brother Jimmy is the ne’er-do-well? What is he, a “Kazoo Man”?

He’s the Bongo Man.

I want to be a ne’er-do-well brother to a banjo man. That must be seven steps closer to enlightenment than being just a banjo man.

Seriously, if you’ve never moved a piano before, you can’t possibly know the horror story that it involves.

Rent-A-Plenty….Ne’er-do-well….Timmy and Jimmy Fretwork….What a HOOT! Love this comic to bits!

If Timmy’s the reliable one in the family, are you really sure you want to be marrying into the Fretworks, Miss Bliss?
The piano was no doubt rolling around unsecured in the back of the truck. Everyone knows you can’t tie down, if you’re a Banjo Man.

Maybe Jimmy Fretwork is the inspiration for that trash bag commercial where the piano is being hoisted on a rope up to a window in a high-rise and the rope breaks… it appears the trash bag will be used to “catch” the piano, but alas, the piano crashes to the ground and so the piano is delivered in pieces inside the trash bag.
