Boy, oh boy, am I going to put that big piano on the fritz

Thanks to the Gregorian calendar and Washington D.C.'s observance of Emancipation Day, the 15th of April this year is not Tax Day. (That's Tuesday, thank God.)

It is, however, the hundredth birthday of the inimitable Hans Conried and I can think of no better way to celebrate his legacy than by colorfully protesting a ridiculous terrible authority figure. Toward that end, I am off to the Tax Rally being held on Cambridge Common.

Shall we dance?
Don't mind if I do!

Now I wish Dr. Terwilliker were our president instead of that other guy.

Oh, God, I can't disagree. I'd have a lot more fun with his TV appearances and we'd already know how to defeat him.

Thank you! The rally was worth attending.

OMG. Somehow that song is EVEN WEIRDER than I anticipated from reading the review, and the review gave me extremely high levels of weirdness-anticipation.

If you mean the Cuban Boys' "Ten Happy Fingers," it is my favorite remix of anything and a reasonably accurate representation of the movie.

If you were listening to the movie's actual score, the mind of Dr. Seuss (and Friedrich Hollaender) was a fabulous place.
