Composer Don Music was a Muppet character on the children's television show Sesame Street.
The typical sketch would have him become frustrated by his inability to think of the final line to well known songs such as "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" and "Mary Had a Little Lamb", and react by banging his head on his piano. However, a reporter observing him, typically Kermit the Frog, would then help Don by suggesting some suitable lyrics. As a result, Don would be inspired to suddenly come up with a whole alternative lyrical composition to the familiar children's songs, which he immediately plays with a full arrangement without any rehearsal with a line of backup singers that suddenly appear from the next room.
Don Music debuted in 1974. Around this time, some parents complained to the Children's Television Workshop that their children were imitating him by banging their heads against things. Concerns were also raised that Don was teaching inappropriate ways to vent their anger when things were not going right.
Music kept a picture of Sesame Street songwriter and composer Joe Raposo on the wall, although it was never actually identified as such. Don Music also maintained a bust of Ludwig van Beethoven on his piano; addressing it (to apologize for his failure as a composer or otherwise verbalize his feelings) as Ludwig. In at least one episode the bust is of William Shakespeare, whom he calls "Bill."
Don Music was performed by Richard Hunt.

Went up to Saratoga, where my horse naturally won.
Wispa bars are back - again. If they're that nice, and people are buying them, why take them off the market in the first place?

I think I'm a wee bit in love with Frances McDormand in Fargo.

Passed by several clamped cars at Clontarf Dart station on my way to work this morning at the horrific time of 6.45am. Took a look at the notices, and saw that they were clamped at 1am in the morning! Unbelievable!
The car park is not busy on Sundays due to 1. people not working, 2. reduced train services. I really think that's just going too far.
why do clubs/countries charge for the kids to bring out the flags / be mascots etc? It's a disgrace. Dont think they give the cash to charity either it's pathetic.
