Definition of a flute, according to David W. Barber in his book A Musician's Dictionary:
"A sophisticated pea-shooter with a range up to five hundred yards and deadly accuracy in close quarters. Blown transversely to confuse the enemy, it can be dismantled into three small pieces, for easy concealment."
I do not consider my self as having mastered the flute, but I get a real kick out of trying.,James Galway
