The lady in the Spanish Guitar Schoo...

She’s tilting further and further over. Hope someone’s ready to catch her!

It's like in the old Maxell commercial ... the bailora is being blown down by the high sound pressure from the tocaor on the left.

Good observation, Paul. She's definitely listing to port. Perhaps she needs a rudder to right her by bringing her to the starboard a bit. Perhaps she needs more ballast to stabilize her. Could her superstructure be rendering her top-heavy? What lies below decks in the cargo hold? (The nautical (not to mention naughty) possibilities of continuing her story are endless.)
