Put on John Coltrane's "Giant Steps." And he immediately broke into a huge smile, lifted his arms, and started dancing. And said "I like this!"
Sigh. Nothing could make this old jazz fan happier.

Ah yes. I had so many similar moments with both the Wonk Monster and Princess Wonk. Enjoy these days, Sidd. They will all to soon be replaced with obssessions with Linkin Park, Christina A., and other derivative crap and worse.
On the plus side, they will remember that there is good music, giving you hope that they will one day return from the Dark Side.
