Did you realize, chris, that all those stupid palindromes were actually pinched from a Dylan parody by Weird Al Yankovic, If you're interested, take a quick look at that other address...........! gk

Hi GK
No, I certainly didn't - I've not heard of him. What is the "other" address?

A discovery for me, too!
Instead of advertising AB, I'll repeat the link for you direct:

(that's not a mistake in the middle!)
If you google the man, you'll find an endlessly interesting homepage. A better skit on BD than others I know! But Paul could have taken better ones as examples, you would have thought..........

Wait a second, I think I have to correct the last letter of that link:

(oh, that seems to be it after all: if it doesn't work, either tell me or look in AB after all!)

That was a new one on me - very clever! My favourite Weird Al parody is his Star Wars/American Pie mashup:

Bullfrog: you actually know this very versatile guy? I think I once heard his name before. Not being so familiar with the Jedi etc this one was a bit lost on me unfortunately. I've ordered a very old record by him though! And I owe the realization to the other guy on AB. Again amazing what you can discover for yourself just by doing a puzzle (in this case a pretty crappy one: good job s'thing better came out of it).

Hi GK
Our guests have now gone and I've just looked in. That was hilarious. It was difficult to believe that it wasn't his Bobness singing.

There were several better ones than the ones Paul used, as well!.

Thanks for that.
Chris
