I don't think a classy place like Portage, PA ever had a jazz club, but I'll have a Rusty Trombone on my layout.

Brass doesn't rust.     :trollface:   Tarnished Trombone maybe?    :trollface: :facepalm:

While true, trombones aren't 100% brass. We often have nickel silver hand slides, but there isn't any iron on them either. We do get corrosion on the inner hand slides, though.

Science aside, I remember the first time I was told of the Rusty Trombone. I was quite pleased in that it accurately described an action that was very similar to playing a trombone.

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

Something about Weldon Salt.

It's "Sirlee Salt".

It's actually "Surlee" Salt. It is more of a pun against being surly than it is being a knight.

I don't even remember where this inside joke originated from.

It all started when Lee yelled at me for eating at Stuggy's instead of ONLY eating at Pollock Johnny's in the ballpark.
