Speaking of jokes:  I saw the season finale of American Idol last night.  It was a surprisingly entertaining show, with more pop star power and better production values than either the Oscars ceremony or the Grammy awards.  Among the acts who performed was the aging glitter-glam "rock" band, Kiss.  Is that "art music," I wonder...? 

Art music is as art music does...

In this way he had a chance to have the rhythm drilled into him. And this was the beginning of a musical inclination in his descendants. JS Bach

With the exception of Goofy, who, somehow, fathered a son,

Which brings up the age-old question: why are Pluto and Goofy both dogs with similar heads, yet Goofy stands up, talks and has a peer relationship with Mickey, and Pluto is merely a barking pet.
If music be the food of love, hold the mayo.

Probably one too many trips to the vet for Pluto.
