twiley Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Pretty funny but hard to top the kid. The little Darth Vader won a crapload of awards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiegie Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 reminds me of the fact that Benjamin Franklin invented a "musical instrument" that consisted of cats meowing. Oh, how did he get them to meow on cue? He had the instrument poke them with pins when it was their turn to meow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have to remember that the next time I am disparaging the feline species. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always wondered how they did stuff like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiegie Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 RE: The Benjamin Franklin "cat organ": I tried to google confirmation that Franklin did indeed create an instrument as I described, but I came up empty. (I do remember reading about it somewhere a long time ago, but perhaps my source was wrong.) It is, however, a fact that other musical "instruments" were created in which cats were locked into boxes while string was tied to their tails. When the "musician" pressed certain keys, it would cause the string to yank the cats' tails causing them to meow/cry in pain. I am not condoning this type of instrument.
