Every time I hear her name, the lyrics just arise unbidden in my head...


But during...
National Brotherhood Week
National Brotherhood Week
Lena Horne and Sheriff Clark are dancing cheek to cheek
It's fun to eulogize
The people you despise
As long as you don't let 'em in your school

Tom Lehrer is funny as hell. My father bought "That was the Year That Was" when it was originally released. My siblings and I thought it was hilarious, now my son and his friends are into it.

I had to endure an entire night of short life jokes from the cow orkers.

That, however, is brilliant.

Won't get much play outside of the Philadelphia area, but another piece of our childhood has passed ... Wee Willie Webber (a DJ on a local Top 40 station, but also the host of afternoon children's TV programming, including introducing us all to the wonders of Ultraman) died this week.
