I love how Ozy's too short for his sax (bari?).
Tenor.
Thank you, I couldn't remember which it was.

I played clarinet, however, but I love the saxophone.

I ralize that every body has parts of their mind that are "ozy-ish" and parts that are "millie-ish". but one of the reasons I feel I can relate to ozy is that we share the same opinions and emotions, and both share the ability to play the greatest blues instrument to ever exist!
The tambourine?

the saxaphone, actualy. but close.

You cannot even spell your own instrument. I am disappointed.

That means he likes you and wants to be your friend.

This is really cool. And the picture being blue itself makes it even better. I noticed Ozy's feet right away. When I play guitar, I point my feet like that occasionally as well for some reason.
A lot of folks do that when playing an instrument. Now I've never noticed any of my guitar-playing pals pointing their feet in like that but I guess theirs a first time for everything.

I'm not sure if I want to be his friend :sad:

I figure it's a baritone sax, simply because DCS loves Lisa Simpson. He's pointed out the little-appreciated running gag that Lisa plays something that requires more lung power than the average grown man can comfortably muster.

no Its a tenor (like the one I have) if it was a bari its neck would be twisted in a loop-de-loop
