#TBT Better to have loved and lost. I think I was 4. I think Janet Lennon was around 10 at the time. I dictated my letter to my uncle. Years later (1985), Gwynne Thomas was producing People Are Talking on WBZ and the Lennon Sisters were going to be on. I called her earlier that day to see if she wanted me to call in and remind Janet about the letter. She said. "Oh God, No! They're going to be talking about stalkers."

#TBT Spring, 1992. I only performed this about three times over the span of several years. I needed a powerful instrumental for the closing. I flipped through the library at the radio station. I thought the National Anthem of Finland was as obscure as you could get (here in the USA).
On the last night, a half dozen people stood and put their hands to their hearts. They were from Finland. They were just as shocked as I was. They were very nice about it. I figured it was time to retire the character.
