Unable to make a career as an opera singer,
Guido uses his voice to hail cabs for tourists at the Wagner Hotel.
Maxim:
Take what you can get.

  2. That's my motto when visiting my "happy place", otherwise known as
    The Track.

    wv: hydroc - which could mean don't
    wear your diamonds when
    travelling.

  6. Sukipoet,
    Case in point: you took today's maxim and did what you could with it. You definitely walk the talk!

  7. Shirl,
    I think the maxim could be adjusted to "take the winnings and run" in your case.

    I think the "hydroc" advice could also be applied to what one wears to one's happy place, otherwise known as the Track.
    ;-)

  8. Stickup Artist,
    Or the strain on his face could just indicate that he's overdue for his washroom break.

  9. DCW,
    His voice is what one would describe hail and hearty.

  10. Barry Coidan,
    Guido thanks you from the bottom of his heart but asks you to save the applause and throw money instead.
