Okay, I'll go further off topic - the bus is a metaphor, but what is
a meta phor?

Mark, very well stated, you are, like, a poet, but as harp player
Dave Murray sagely wrote, it was more, like, a simile.
A metaphor might leave the interpretation to the reader (he put the
foghorn in his mouth) , whereas a simile expressly frames it as one
thing being like or as another, the low D harp was like a foghorn
cutting through the smoky room. (Or, the list is like a bus)
An analogy might be, the low D harmonica woke his wife with the
alacrity of a foghorn to the crew of a swamped sailboat facing a
leeward shore. Or somethin' like that.
D'ja like the sneak of harp content? See, I can get technical about
some stuff... even if I'm arguably wrong. Which of course everyone is.
This concludes the brief english discussion. Now we return you to
regular programming.
Merci, et a bientot!
