Schnitzel

Iris likes to listen to [KEXP](http://www.kexp.org)–or at least she likes to come into the bedroom and turn on Laurie’s clock radio, which is set to KEXP. The other day she got upset because the DJ was not Cheryl Waters.

I was listening to a promo–you know, “Hi, this is Ben from Death Cab for Cutie, and you’re listening to KEXP”–and had a funny idea that I’m sure is already a standup comedy staple. What if classical stations also had promos like that?

> **Me:** Ja, zis is Mozart, you are listenink to KXYZ.

> **Laurie:** I don’t think Mozart talks like that.

> **Me:** Of course not, he’s dead.

Iris loved my Mozart impression, so I scooped her onto my lap.

> **Me:** Ja, zis is Mozart. Vould you like a viener?

> **Iris:** (laughing) Are we playing Bavarian Meats?

> **Me:** Vould you like bratwurst? Knackwurst? Weisswurst?

> **Iris:** No! We are playing Mozart.
