> Don't use cutlery Mike. For The Bells of St. Mary's I suggest:
> 1) Get yourself twenty-three Norwegian white mice.
> 2) Train the mice to squeak at a selected pitch.
> 3) Arrange the mice on a rack in the correct order.
> 4) Use two mallets and strike the mice on the head.
> 5) Strike the mice in the proper sequence and they will squeak 'The
> Bells of St Mary's'.

> Playing the Mouse Organ requires some special mallet technique.
> A squashing sound may indicate that you are striking the heads with

> Norwegian white mice "stun" easily. (Or he might be tired and shagged
