It is normally recommended that a lawyer not represent himself as a defence
attorney, although in this case she might be deemed competent to handle either
task separately.

It is also recommended (at least in the US) that one not try to
fill the roles of consuming products while thinking for oneself
at the same time.  We have (great) leaders who handle the latter
portion for us, as is mutually represented by the waving of
brightly coloured pieces of cloth.

If you mean at the same time;
-Shaving with a straight razor in one hand and eating with chopsticks in 
the other. But Thomas Campion- arguably at his  less profound level than 
Dowland- was better at being both poet & composer of songs. Never the 
underlay problems such as found in so many of Dowland's second verses 
and subsequent verses. But I still prefer Dowland.

   We have posted the penultimate installment of our Dowland discussion,
   with an excellent example of why lutenists should not write poetry.

   Hm... WOULD YOU CONSIDER IT TO BE ACCEPTABLE IF POETS PLAY THE LUTE ??
