As a young'un my folks got me a phonograph. I don't know what
happened to it after I got a MagnaVox, but I suspect it was trashed.

Anyway, one of the first records that came with it was "We're
Building A City" which I think I wore out (no record of where that
record went, either). Later my mother told me that she thought
something was wrong with me and had actually called the doctor. I
would put the record on and play it over and over while rocking back
and forth in front of it.

And look what happened to me <smile>.

Cheers,

Richard
