    I like the way that everyone is looking so incredibly serious. Cos hand-farts are a serious business I suppose.

    I can do arm-pit farts; anyone play the piano?

    Funny Thing: Armpit farts? An impressive talent to be sure. Now if we can find someone who can belch the alphabet, you could form an orchestra.

    I always wondered how men keep their musical instruments nice and limber.

    Jacqueline: There are lessons to be learned from farm boys. I'd like to hear him play John Denver's "Thank God I'm a Country Boy."

    Aye. Armpit farts are a compulsory module in GCSE music, here in Britland. See? You're missing out over there...

    Funny Thing: You Brits are a much more cultured lot, obviously. Is this your child? And did he say, "Mom, you pooped" at the end?
