**** MUSIC RELATED MALADIES
The Association of Neurologists has just discovered the following new, rock music maladies:
HEAD BANGERS' WHIPLASH: comes from moving your head with great force during heavy metal songs, developing neck pain.
DOO WOP WRIST: a carpal tunnel-like syndrome, brought about by snapping one's fingers repeatedly to 50's music
CLASSICAL ELBOW: just like tennis elbow, caused by holding a baton aloft and swinging it vigorously
DRUMMER'S DEGENERATIVE DISEASE: the bones degenerate from repeated tapping on whatever flat surface is available
SYMPHONIC SMILE: this is an inflammation of the musculature of the face, caused by grinning smugly because you listen to classical music
64TH NOTE WRIST/ELBOW: another repeat-motion malady, usually affecting heavy metal guitarists, caused by repeatedly playing too many notes.
BLUE DEPRESSION: listening to too much blues
SEATTLE EAR: this is a pitch reference destroying syndrome, leading the listener to believe an Ab is an A.
PARENT'S VOICE: this causes frequent hoarseness because of constant cries to "Turn That Noise Down," and is further aggravated by almost any type of newer rock music, Marshall Amps, and car alarms
