Awwww, opera is not bad, sung properly it can be absolutely transporting.
Opera has everything, love, hate, vengeance, murder, incest, fantasy, it's like a great reality show with a fabulous music track. Then again, it's all about personal taste, sung well, I love opera, sung poorly, it's a miserable night in the theatre. Sung poorly, I weep for Verdi, but it never kills his music.
As for you Mousepod, it's about time someone had the Rhinemaidens in the nude, proper costuming for a mermaid no matter what Disney may say! ;-)
Now, I agree, some of these parents should have their children taken away from them, if for no other reason that with someone else they might have a more healthy exposure to art, culture, the world. Of course, the kids will be exposed to a healthy exposure to art, culture, music and the world via their gay friends.
