The Kazoo, a relic of everyone's childhood. These tiny plastic devices somehow take something as mundane as a hum and turn it into the most wondrous of noises. Until recently, the last time I had seen a Kazoo was in a home video of my older brother playing his as an accompaniment to Disney's "The Jungle Book." So imagine my surprise when a few months ago the magical kazoo was making a comeback. Naturally, one of my friends went out and bought a whole pack of kazoos for me and some of our other friends. Let me tell you that it has changed my life, what I once considered a simple child's toy is now the single most important object in existence. Okay so if you're still reading this then that means you have yet to leave your seat and buy a kazoo, and that's totally okay, I get that it'll take more convincing.
