TOP REASONS TO SING BASS

You don't have to worry about a woman replacing you.

Action heroes are always basses. That is -- if they ever sang, they would sing bass.

You get great memorable lyrics to sing like "oom, papa, mow-mow." (Oaks)

You never need to learn to read the treble clef.

If you catch a cold, so what.... you're a bass… it'll make your voice even lower.

For fun, basses can sing at the bottom of their range and fool people into thinking there's an earthquake.

If you belch while you're singing, the audience just thinks it's part of the song.

Great one -- although I have an aunt in Texas who's 88 who actually can sing bass! :-) True story.....

How chauvanistic of you. Political science majors are always politically correct.

Maybe not always. Forgive me, Dr. Floyd! :)
