...I have a seriously infantile sense of humor about certain things at 
times. To wit,

Bruce Johnson writes,

<Whenever you emptied the trash, Oscar would come out of the trash can  
and sing a fragment of his 'I love Trash' song. Each time you emptied  
the trash he sang another verse, so the only way to get him to sing  
the whole thing was to repeatedly put things in the trash and empty it.

Hmm...no way THAT could go wrong!

It was by an Eric Shapiro, and was shown at MacHack '89 and may well  
exist out on the net somewhere...He eventually wrote a standalone  
version to protect people with preschoolers.

Here's a link to a copy I found: <http://asgard.actrix.co.nz/ 
macintosh/inits/>

It's called TheGrouch.sit on that page.>

ROFLMAO! I can't help but ask if this is (a) something that's actually 
going to damage my Macs (G3/266, OS 9.2.2 and 5300c Powerbook OS 8.6), 
and (b) if it's safe, can I put this on my Macs and will Oscar do his 
thing when I empty my Trash? See, I'd like to try it, but I don't want to 
mess up my Macs.

On this note, does anyone remember an extension called MacBarf? 
Supposedly if you had it installed and enabled, it would cause your Mac 
to make vomiting noises whenever you ejected a floppy. I had downloaded 
it from somewhere and enabled it (this was back on my 7200/120 with OS 
8.1 as my only computer era) but it never worked. Does anyone know why, 
and if I could find this for OS 8.6 to 9.2.2?

But I don't WANNA grow up!,
