[78-L] ^Have some Madeira, M'Dear was: Venuti!

[soundthink at aol.com]

The Limeliters' Lou Gottlieb was a good friend of mine and his audiences never got tired of him chewing the scenery with this routine. He always had fun with it. Nice that someone brought it up. Lou was fond of saying that the song brought him "perilously close to solvency."

 That's NOT what I wrote, but that's the way it came through.  As to your 
hymed couplet, I fail to see the connection.  Or does it fit in with
 
 1).    You pays your money and you takes your choice.
 2).    That's what makes for horseracing.
 3).    To each his own.
 4).    Each to his own taste, also known as "chacun a son gout" (it will come 
hrough better without the 
             diacritical marks)
 5).    etc.

 P.S. On my PC the "a" in the quotes above is gotten with Alt-133, and the "u" 
ith Alt-150.  Try it!  Maybe you have to send it as Unicode.
