Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Awww, nice obit on Blossom though it manages to miss her contributions to Schoolhouse Rock, (like, "Unpack Your Adjectives").

Don't forget "Figure 8"! That's one of my favorites.

True! A very pretty melody by Dorough on that one.

Huh, I hadn't realized that Blossom Dearie was her 'real' name.

Thanks, Tom! I got 'em all.

New fav from that batch: "Satan Takes A Holiday" - Anton Lavey.

It's jaunty.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Is that "Satan Takes a Holiday" a remake of the Tommy Dorsey song? The TD song has long been a favorite.

I don't know. Probably - its an instrumental.

Do you want me to post it?

Ann, that's a ferret.

It's probably the same song.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
