WOW

But is it a trick? I just had to fill a dozen glasses and see what would happen but after drinking the contents to use them the only sound was the glasses smashing on the floor!!

You could always us water to fill the glasses. :innovativeidea:

I was watching the video and my granddaughter came running out of her room, excited because she recognized the music. My best-friend in-law (my best friend's husband, but he's my friend too) took Myra to the Nutcracker just before Christmas this year, which has since become known around our house as "Myra's ballet."

She danced with great aplomb. The topic reminded me of snaking out a sewer line Christmas Eve LOL

Is that like a conga line? Otherwise you will need to elucidate (or not, if it's too awful...!).

HAHAHA~!~! Let's just say the ebb and flow of said line should have been snaking its way towards to filtration plant, but alas.....I'll leave the rest to some colourful imaginations. Yorkshire pudding had some interesting similarities lol

The same song played on Ben Franklin's invention, the Armonica: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQemvyyJ ... re=related

Did you SEE that???? The Toledo Museum of Art had a special Mother's Day celebration back in the 80's and had a glass armonica featured with a musician playing that exact song. I will have to go back to the photo albums to see if I can locate the picture, but it was really neat watching him play and listening to the armonic tones. Thanks for posting this link

How remarkably unlike a harmonica is an armonica!
