Might not mean much to most, but I just passed the last of eleven fingering exams for graduation. 'Had to take written fingering tests for Flute, Oboe, Bassoon, Clarinet, Saxophone, Trumpet, French Horn, Euphonium, Trombone, Tuba and Percussion rudiments.

Congrats! In this case, it is good to blow your own horn

Um, Congratulations? I passed fingering in high school and it felt great!....oh, talking about music! Sorry, I really couldn't resist.

In all seriousness, that's an awesome accomplishment, very well done sir.

Congrats on passing all those exams though.

Congratulations! That’s an impressive list of instruments! I’m still learning how to play Guitar Hero.

Be sure to celebrate with a great smoke!

That's a lot of instruments...

You're a one man cigar smoking Prince/George Michael with all those instruments under your belt.

When's the first album coming out?
