Ah, yes...the only music my parents ever hid from me in my checkered childhood. Not that they would have minded me knowing the songs - I knew all the drinking songs from Dei Fledermaus (in translation), after all. They just dreaded a phone call from school, if I started singing, say, "Old Dope Peddler", and the authorities heard me. There was a large article on Lehrer last week in the Youngstown (OH) Vindicator. Forget People Magazine; you know you've made it when they write about you in the YV. Keep the thread up, there's a good quote in the article, but I won't be home until next week, and won't have 'net access at work until Wednesday.
