[78-L] Am I Missing Something?

[David Lennick]

Funny! Yup, that sold 1,069,000 according to "one report" cited in The Book Of 
Golden Dickheads". And it turns up in every single collection and junk pile, 
along with Jolson's even bigger seller (1,846,000 copies), The Spaniel that 
Blighted My Wife.

Don't make me laugh, I got chapped lips.
