A drummer walks into a music shop, goes up to the guy behind the desk, and says:

"I'm a drummer but I fancy something new. Have you got any of those accordion things?"

The guy points to the back wall, covered in accordions, and the drummer walks over.

Ten minutes later the drummer comes back and says:

"I really like the look of the big white one at the bottom, but I can't get it off the wall."

The guy behind the counter smiles and says:

"That's a radiator."
