    Thanks. “Another one bites” the dust is catchy. Weird Al Yankovic (to drop a name) had his version: “Another one rides the bus.” An acquaintance’s take on the song was “Another one kicks our butts.” My version: “Another one gnaws the crust.” Btw: Great to see someone make an good, working instrument from easy to find materials such as balloons.
