The tune which is solidly stuck in my head this morning is "Get Happy" - not the Costello album, but an old show tune - and a jazz standard. (The version I am persistantly whistling is from a Hank Mobley album, I think.)

Wherever it is from, it seems a pretty good way to start the day!

[Edit] Well, I don't think can have a version of "Get Happy" by Hank Mobley, since my search of his discography on the 'net finds no trace of him recording the tune. This is now going to bug, 'till I get home late tonight and rifle through all my old vinyl to find the LP I am thinking of. Damn!

Wasn't that used in one of the Marx Bros films? A Day at the Races, maybe?

I am trying to picture Groucho singing "Get Happy"... No, it doesn't work for me!

Chico I think....

I guessed it would have been Zippo. (Why name your kid after a cigarette lighter?)

Still, in the 21st century, he would have been called Nano. Which would do nothing for his self esteem.

There was a brief sidebar in this week's New Scientist, warning of the dangers of nanotech, chief amongst them how easily the stuff can get into your lungs...
