Two catastrophes

[telebob x]

It was NOT Teresa Brewer...it WAS Patti Page who sang about that fucking dog 
in the window.

I once threw a rock at Patti's 1958 pink Oldsmobile station wagon as it went 
past me in Tulsa's Utica Square.  On the side of the car...in pretty script 
written on a bar of musical staff were the words...."Here goes the Patti 
Wagon"...I kid you not.  Is it any wonder I hurled a stone at her?  Not to 
mention that vomitous song. Yip yip. I, a Big Joe Turner and Ray Charles 
fan, could not tolerate one more note.

Teresa Brewer was guilty of many sins, but the dog song was not one of them.
