Today I played some music on the laptop to entertain me while feeding  
my son Zachary (who we call Z). I noticed he was happily bouncing in  
his high chair, and then noticed he seemed to be kind of bouncing in  
sync with the music.

Curious, I turned down the music. He stopped bouncing, looked  
nonplussed, and then got mildly fussy. I turned the music back up, and  
he smiled and started bouncing again.

A few more repeats of this experiment convinced me that he was,  
indeed, grooving.

So what was Z's first groove? "Party Machine," by Bruce Haack.

"Low low low, like Kurtis Blow.
Down down down, like James Brown.
Haack attack is back. Bruce Haack, anti-wack."

Hah!
