Roger in Baltimore	Help: Little Boxes (Malvina Reynolds) ticky-tacky? (138* d)	RE: Ticky-tacky	25 Apr 04
In my dim memory, the term "ticky-tacky" preceded Malvina, but as an adjective not a noun. Malvina's creativity was to say the house were made of "ticky-tacky" instead of they having the quality of beint "ticky-tacky". I remember being crushed when Karen Rauch (the resident Bohemian of my High School's Junior class) described me as a "Ticky-tacky guitar player". Ah the joys of memory. I'm sure there are much nicer things I could have remembered from 40 years ago which instead I have forgotten. At least today, I know I'm not a "ticky-tacky guitar player". Roger in Baltimore
