Simon and Garfunkel are looking for America

Michigan seems like a dream to me now
 :(

I take that as an "I-miss-Dave" lament?

Me too.

As I did with this comment:

It took me four days to hitchhike from Alpena....

(Alpena is the town Dave moved to, I think--it's a town on the coast of northeast Michigan, on Lake Huron. It was mentioned once or twice in the last Morning Show.)

Comedienne Paula Poundstone ruined any Bobby Kennedy assassination clips for me a long time ago.

She noted that Sirhan Sirhan was up for parole, and that he was quoted in the news saying, "If were Robert Kennedy still alive, he would approve of my getting paroled."

Quoth Paula: "You gotta feel sorry for this guy!  The one person who would have wanted him paroled, and it has to be the same guy he shot."

I thought Alpena... was truncated! too lazy to spell the rest of the town's name

I can handle that insipid "Tigers - Rah rah rah, Cardinals Boo" a little better after the 2006 World Series!

"Tigers, Tigers: Rah Rah Rah.
Cardinals, Cardinals: Boo."


that's really all you need in a fight song. Anything else is just too wordy.

This is one of the ultimate cases of a cover supplanting the original, which is no small feat for a Dylan song
