Johnny comes home from school, and says to his mum, "Mummy, I learned the alphabet today! The rest of the class messed up around F, but I made it all the way through!"
Johnny’s mum says, "Very good, son. That’s because you’re a violist."
Johnny comes home the next day and screams, "Mummy, Mummy, I counted to a hundred today! Everyone else couldn’t get past 60, but I made it all the way to 100!"
And his mum says, "Excellent. That’s because you’re a violist."
The next day, Johnny comes home and says, "Mummy, the teacher measured everyone’s height in class today, and I was taller than everyone. Is that ’cause I’m a violist?" His mum shakes her head and says, "No, honey; that’s because you’re twentysix."
