Opera, cartoons, and butt-singing.

[Guest]

Parents can understand this, I imagine.

On Nicktoons, there is a commercial that uses music from the opera Carmen as background. While this is happening, they show funny slapstick scenes from dozens of cartoons they feature on that channel.

During this commercial a few moments ago, I noticed my son standing in front of the TV, bent over with his head down, his tighty-whitey-covered little butt facing his sister. He was moving his rear back and forth in time with the music, giggling and singing along with the tune.

When he heard my chuckles, he turned his head sideways to tell me.

"I'm butt-singing."



(I'm so proud.)

My son does "butt-talking." It's entirely different.

That one line from Carmen, the one I translate as "I need a breath mint", makes so much more sense now.

Don't knock it, he could be the next Jim Carey and make bazillions of $$ off of asinine stuff like that.

Cute story.

My butt doesn't sing.

However, it DOES play trombone.

Mine does impressions.

Does a great one of a french horn.

Flugelhorn for me.

I'm just sayin'....

I mean think back to when you were in band camp.

I didn't play the flute.

French horn, actually.

But from my mouth.

[Guest]

So you never played ANY flutes at band camp?

Nope.

I was young. Sweet. Innocent.

Once.

Had you been at my band camp, I could have cured that.

You just can't trust musicians.

Babes dig the drummers.

They're so good with their hands.

Horn players, on the other hand . . .
