Ill Wind?
[edit]Saxophone: An ill wind nobody blows good.
I had always believed this title was given to the oboe.
complete suckage - this article needs WORK
[edit]"These are the souls that time men's tries" is a triple pun, which was originally used in a headline in the NYTimes.
I first saw this in 1967 on the timing scoring building at Sebring, Florida for the 12 Hours of Sebring Race. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.78.247.174 (talk) 16:18, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
There's only a few perfect triples in English. Another is the sign to Ken Kesey's ranch: "No Left Turn Unstoned".
Again, this article SUCKS.

Probably not worth including here
[edit]But I'll mention it on the Talk page anyway, since it's my favourite example of this pun: "A hard man is good to find." - Mae West
