That's great! I assume that you made it, though. That would be too much of a coincidence... The cat even has the "deer-in-the-headlights" look that Stockhausen seems to have in some pictures.

Showing up blank... Is that some kind of mean joke? >:(
Beethoven's Op. 133 -- A fugue so bad that even Beethoven himself called it "Grosse".

Speaking of cats and music, Roald Dahl wrote a short story about a cat who loved some classical music by certain composers and other composers not so much.
When I bought the book, a series of stories, the title was 'Someone like you'.
This was early Roald Dahl, before he became a well known children's book writer. I think 'Lamb to the Slaughter' was in it as well. If you haven't seen the Hitchcock Presents version of this short story you should. Several other of his adult stories were published in Playboy. Switch Bitch (a suburban wife swapping story) and I forget the other title. Something about a powerful aphrodisiac. Writen at the time of the Nixon Administration.
