To find that last joke I did a search on "God and Gravina". This other joke also came up. Those were sillier times.

A person who plays the harmonica is either male or female, whereas a harmonica player is one or the other.
A harmonica player is ignored by God, whereas a person who plays the harmonica is treated like everybody else.
You can lead a harmonica player to water but you can't make a person who plays the harmonica drink.
When all is said and done the person who plays the harmonica has nothing left to say, whereas the harmonica player has nothing left to do.
The person who plays the harmonica is first and foremost a person, whereas the harmonica player is first and foremost a harmonica.
You can fool the person who plays the harmonica some of the time but you can't fool a harmonica player all of the time.
A harmonica player and a person who plays the harmonica walk into a bar. The bartender can't tell the difference between the two so he charges them both for two beers even though each order only one. In the ensuing small talk the bartender says, "We don't get many of you harmonica types in here.". To which the two indistinguishable patrons reply, in unison, "At these prices you won't get many more!".
