@edgarblythe,
Thanks for your comment, edgar, and although I don't know Jackie DeShannon, that was a great version of Splendor in the Grass. Know The Byrds, however.
I was beginning to think that the Russians had destroyed our signal.
There was a movie about Splendor in the Grass. It starred Natalie Wood and Warren Beatty.
Somehow, I was thinking about this man today.
Charles Lutwidge Dodgson born (27 January 1832 – 14 January 1898), better known by the pseudonym Lewis Carroll, was an English author, mathematician, logician, Anglican deacon and photographer. His most famous writings are Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking-Glass, as well as the poems "The Hunting of the Snark" and "Jabberwocky", all examples of the genre of literary nonsense. He is noted for his facility at word play, logic, and fantasy, and there are societies dedicated to the enjoyment and promotion of his works and the investigation of his life in many parts of the world, including the United Kingdom, Japan, the United States, and New Zealand.
When I was a kid, I read most of his books, but this one was funny to me.
and this verse, funny.
"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy."
Here's Alice.
