Can she learn to "shoot" the keys like Chico?

Let me see if I can fix this mess I made of this story.

Angela sent me this email:

"Sophia has gotten into watching Tom and Jerry cartoons.  Yesterday she was watching an episode where Tom does a piano solo.  She said that he was playing Golliwog's Catwalk.  That gave me a big laugh!  I knew she liked the Marx Brothers and Mystery Science Theater, but I didn't know she was a Debussy fan."

I read it and thought "Catwalk?"  That doesn't sound right.  Went to YouTube and sure enough it was Cakewalk.  So I figured Angela had just mis-typed it.

I fired off an email to her and said "very cute, but I think it's Cakewalk isn't it".  Then I posted the story with my stupid correction.

Then Angela sends me this:

"Yeah, Sophia knew it was Cakewalk...but it was a CAT playing the piano."

Rim shot. 

Grammy, go soak your head.
