a recent column in wall street journal
reported the effect of classical music on
cows – news to them of course in nyc
I’ve been telling you for ages what cows
like (the three b’s) don’t (1812 cannons)
they checked this, found it true, carried
research further – a pisciculturalist
reports fish farms pipe song into their
ponds (we all know whale tunes don’t
sound like rap the ocean must be filled
with music) they also found honey
production sweetens up when bees
buzz along with berlioz I even told you
about a sewage plant in germany where
bacteria work faster with mozart (my
studies spread a wide net) all this
apropos of nothing but hey it’s summer
