Does anyone here know the story of Oppur Knockity? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

In case you don't, I will tell you. I love this.

Oppur Knockity was the greatest violinist in the world. And people used to like to have Oppur Knockity tune their violin. Sure it was expensive, but people felt it was worth it. Well, one day Oppur Knockity got tired of tuning violins, and he wanted some privacy so he announced that he was done and he moved all the way up to the top of a mountain, for solitude. Well, this one guy was so determined that Oppur Knockity tune his violin that he climbed all the way up to the top of the mountain to see him. Oppur Knockity was so impressed at the man's perseverance that he tuned the violin for free. So the guy was really happy for a while but on the way down the mountain, he slipped on some ice and fell. He dropped the violin and accidentally messed up the tuning. So he did what anyone would do: he went back up the mountain to get Oppur Knockity to fix it. But when he got there, Oppur Knockity said no, he wouldn't fix it. And the moral of this story is that Oppur Knockity tunes but once.

I think the fact that you have to give this joke too much thought is stalling my laughter...*s*

It's a play on the saying "Opportunity Knocks but once"
