Sounds like a regular friday night for myself......

Mice can whistle and chirp like birds--and researchers now say their songs seem to be happy ones. New experiments associate the rodents' ultrasonic chatter with the brain's dopamine-based reward system, and investigators hope that studying the songs may eventually point toward genes behind human emotional disorders such as schizophrenia and autism.

No one knew exactly why mice sing, but rats make similar calls during sex, pleasant brain stimulation, and drug use, so psychologists thought the songs might be a sign of happiness.

And the final proof that mice our one of our closest relatives:

(Females sing during social reunion with other females but only squeak uncomfortably during sex).

If I had a dollar for every time I heard a female squeak uncomfortably, I'd be a millionaire. :cry:

Umm...just one question- How can a woman 'squeak uncomfortably' if she doesn't feel anything??:confused:

Back on topic, there is now definitive evidence on why so many musicians are drug users. Drugs=dopamine rewards=music=more dopamine rewards=more music..., and on and on, ad infinitum, 'till death do you part (usually a little early.)
