   I read about and listened to Apostrophe and Baby Snakes over the   
   weekend, and since I had the day off today I read the chapter on The   
   Best Band You Never Heard In Your Life while listening to the CDs this   
   morning.   
      
   The most interesting bit that I learned about BBYNHIYL is the section   
   of The Torture Never Stops Part 1 from 3:03-4:56 quotes the theme   
   songs from a bunch of old TV shows: I Love Lucy, My Three Sons,   
   Mission Impossible and The Addams Family.  I'm pretty sure I had   
   caught the Mission Imposible reference before, but somehow I had never   
   noticed the other three.  I'm particularly embarrased about never   
   noticing the Addams Family quotes before - that's one of my all time   
   favorite TV shows, I even own the whole series on DVD.   
      
   It was also interesting to read about all the edits and quotes in The   
   Eric Dolphy Memorial Barbecue.  Trying to put it all in order while   
   listening to the track was like doing a jigsaw puzzle.   
      
   Lots of quotes from Keneally posts in a.f.f-z in that chapter.  I   
   actually remember reading some of those posts back in the day.
