   More like the old song, Ken:

   “Nouga-cha-ka, nouga-cha-ka
   I can’t stand this Bingley
   Sittin’ in sight of me
   BLECH! You just don’t realize
   What it does to me…”

   And, for Diptera’s sake and because it’s LENT, I did NOT link to the amazing David Hasselhoff video. See? I’m sensitive and respect other cultures.

   You really are an inspiration Sis. A shining example in these dark times.

   “Dark” being the operative word.
   I live to serve.

   You have my thanks for avoiding that particular temptation, Ms. Sister. ‘Course I shoulda known that Hasselhoff did a cover – hopefully in German, just for the comedy value.
