Music and humor can intersect in one of three ways. The first way is when serious artists get clever. This would be The Who's "Squeeze Box," The Ramones "I Want to be Sedated," or Aerosmith's "Dude Looks Like a Lady."

Individuals that possess eidetic memory, or photographic memory, are able to recall with precision a large amount of information, images or sounds.

Art truly is one of the great measures of a civilization and is a window into what a particular culture thought and valued.

On May 17, 1607 an expedition of English explorers landed on the shores of Virginia after a charter was granted to the “Virginia Company” by King James the First. In keeping with the principals established under Queen Elizabeth the First, the English immediately “claimed” the land and set about renaming everything in sight, much to the considerable annoyance of the local Algonquin native Americans, who duly commenced a sporadic form of guerrilla warfare with the adventurous English settlers.
