Dean:

My favorite pop song is probably Bacharach's "Mexican Divorce" as arranged and performed by him on his eponymous album with, I think, Cissy Houston (or perhaps an unnamed singer) doing the vocals. But The Drifters recorded it earlier, and Dionne was one of the backing singers along with Cissy, and that's where he discovered her.

@8:14 Handy Haversack: swimming every day. Hopefully for a month more or so. The lake I go now to is 10 miles away but no complaints, very few people there, water's clean and it's safe and serene, unlike the nearest beach, which seems to attract young vandals, who don't mind the security cameras...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:26pm

@Linda Lee: I recall that you and I are about the same age, but yes, that is exactly also what I feel about Dionne/Burt and Pet Clark/Tony Hatch. If being an adult was being reflected in those songs, I'm ready.

Cha Cha, we got out of town last weekend, and our friends knew a swimming hole in a local creek, which was excellent -- though I did look up to see a snake about 15 cm from my face at one point, which led to a sustained bout of wading until I got my heart rate to get over it.

Even then I wasn't into branding. My lunchbox was a generic Scotch plaid, and I never wanted one associated with third-party operations. And so it goes to this day. I oppose bumper stickers, hashtags, and branded t-shirts, with one huge exception: I routinely and proudly wear WFMU t-shirts.

Cheese sandwich, mustard, and carrots. Once my mom gave me...what?!...dessert. It was a plastic-wrapped slice of cherry pie. (Get your minds out of the gutter, you slobs.) I took a couple bites and found it a bit chewy. Then I observed that the pie was supported by a slice of cardboard I'd been consuming. Because my mom never gave me processed foods--except for the Velveeta--I was not prepared for the pie.
