Had a good chuckle there!

I read once that one could tell whether someone had had intercourse or not
by measuring the neck (before and after, I suppose). Apparrently the neck
swells after? I would imagine that engourgement in that part of the anatom=
y
could interfere with singing?
My aunt was lead collarature in Z=FCrich in the 3o's. When she had a
performance, my uncle would find his bed made up on the couch. "Julia muss
morgen singen" was all the mother-in-law had to offer with a grunt.
