Scooped!

JUDGE JOHN HODGMAN, author and DECIDER informs us that a discussion in our most recent Thorn/Morris program was presaged by Gilbert & Sullivan many years ago. QUOTH THE JUDGE:

I have been rediscovering PIRATES OF PENZANCE in my efforts to become even more of a nerd, and I am reminded that there is a song in that frothy operetta specifically on the subjects of PIRATES BECOMING CATBURGLARS.

The song in question is "WITH CAT-LIKE TREAD UPON OUR PREY WE STEAL," performed above by the University of Iowa Summer Opera.
