Subject: RE: beedle bomb
Born in 1945. Grew up with my Dad listening to Spike Jones. Guess what-my mom thought Spike was really stupid, but Dad and I knew better. I remember Beetle Bomb-I was just young enough to get it or most of it. I remember constantly asking my older brother "What does that mean?" or "Why is that funny?" I knew Spike Jones was funny from day one. Recently, my brother sent me a Henny Youngman record, which is really a horse race game as described above, but with Youngman calling all the races. THis must come from the fifties sometime.By the way, they snapped the cable for the U.S. Asian internet, so you may not hear from me regularly for a while Seth from China
