Puzzle Description:

Bagheera has finally found a way to control Kaa

Breast, but, yes.

I was looking on the internet to find the quote and this is what I found: There's a well-known line that you've probably heard before: “Music hath charms to soothe a savage beast.” ... Calm and melodious music can have a settling effect on people, babies and young children included. After more research it seems that is a musquote, but I will leave it as is because to me a snake doesn't have much of a breast. But it sure can be a savage beast.

I love it! One of my favorite movies to watch with my boys when they were little.

One of my favorite stories! Thanks, Norma

Re: #2 (and #1), this is one of those almost-always-misquoted quotes. It was originally "Music has charms to soothe a savage breast"

Very nice. Thanks Norma. You have real talent.

Thank you, all. The cartoon version with Phil Harris is my favorite all time cartoon. There will never again be able to bring together voices to equal the cast for this production.

It was fun recognizing the black panther and his littler "friend." And fun to solve too.

For those who might not be familiar, these are characters from Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Book.

Here'sssss a clip:

Thank you, Teresa and Travis. The way Kaa is animated is truly masterful. Thanks for the link Teresa.

John Goodman has been a *decent* replacement, but he's not the same as Phil Harris.

Hey, I just learned some stuff! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phil_Harris

They don't make 'em like they used to. :)

Nicely done Norma!
