I almost forgot what day it was, till I heard the song on the radio this morning. Nice to know the local station remembered it.

Well, GL is going around touring this place and up came one of the woman caretakers. She went right up to him, looked him right in the eye, didn't introduce herself, and just said:

"It Ain't Musty!!!!"

I always got a kick out of that story and I hope you did too.
