this is not a french horn

Congratulations Micheal Pealow!  Micheal won two tickets for tomorrow night's Whitehorse Concerts presentation of Guy & Nadina—lucky man.

And knowledgable, too. It was a bit of a tricky question because the instrument does very closely resemble a french horn, but is, in fact, called a corno da caccia or cornet de cassio

Thanks for entering everyone. Keep your eyes peeled for our next contest.

Oh wait. I see you mean the photo, not the failwhale-horn. Yes, this is a corno da caccia.

I just want to say that something needs to be done with the smwinoboles around.  I live in Porter Creek and already they are out on their machines and driving quite fast up and down 14th and Fir.  This has been a problem every winter and I have seen kids on sleds without helmets, pulling a sled with a rope tied to the back and kids that are in the sled being towed without helmets and on the street.  Someone is going to get seriously hurt soon around here.  I am tired of shovelling my driveway and I work hard to clear the snow and many hours outside doing this and I hear a snowmobile coming up the street just to take jumps off my snowbanks and throw all the snow I just cleared back onto my driveway to make a huge mess.  Their is no respect from them or consideration of the amount of work that goes into clearing a driveway.  I am getting very upset about this already and they need to stay off peoples property when on their machine.  I hope something can be done to make it fun and safe for anyone riding a snowmobile and that laws will be enforced so nobody gets hurt or killed soon.
