I would like to postulate that it is impossible to accurately add up a column of numbers, even with the help of a calculator, while the radio is playing The William Tell Overture as performed by Spike Jones and His City Slickers.

All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
I'm really thinking about putting a 2m in the Jeep again.

As a more of a kid (than now) I was a huge Spike Jones fan.
Back in the 40's & 50's, his work came out on big 78 rpm platters.
One of my favorites (he did a spot-on impression of Peter Lorrie):

So, I was sitting here at my laptop and I heard something tapping on the window. I turned around and there's a tiny bird of an unknown (to me) species clinging to the outside sill, pecking at the glass. I walked over to the window and put my face within inches of his. He just fixed his beady little eye on me, unfazed. I grabbed my Peterson's Guide to Western Birds, figuring I was never gonna get a better look at a wild bird than this and managed to ID the species within a minute or two: it was a bushtit.
Bushtit? Bushtit??
I mean, come on.
You know that the guy who came up with that name must have been some horny old ornithologist who'd been snowbound in his cabin for months on end.

They can name birds but not flowering cactusses. Brilliant.
