What's The Grateful Dead?

My Mom is part of a public reading group and chose a Sholom Aleichem story for her performance. She had to explain who Sholom Aleichem was. Then she had to explain what "Fiddler on the Roof" was.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

What's The Grateful Dead?

I was under my hairstylist's comb one day when "Dust in the Wind" by Kansas came on the radio. I mentioned that I loved the song. She screwed up her face and said she'd never heard it before. I said, it's an old song. She said, like from the 80's? I said, no (argh), the 70's; it's by Kansas. She said, "The state?"

I don't know who Sholom Aleichem is.

He wrote the stories that "Fiddler on the Roof" is based on.

I didn't know Fiddler on the Roof was based on stories.

All I know about it is that there is apparently a fiddler on a roof singing about tradition. And he's Jewish.

And don't forget the matchmaking. I would think you would know about that.

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

I didn't know Fiddler on the Roof was based on stories.

Most of them were originally published in magazines, and then collected into several books. Basically, a series of short stories about Tevye and his wife and family and the other people in his town. Fiddler on the Roof took the basic characters, and several of the plots of the short stories became subplots of the musical, and stuck a happy ending on one that didn't have a happy ending, and kind of mixed and matched bits and pieces to make a coherent story.
