I didn’t know about the happy ending on my horizon. But this was queued up on a cassette tape a couple of years before when my very young sons got off in a car pool line at a Montessori School we could not afford but their Mother insisted on. So we entertained, at volume, the young lady escorting the kids from car to school.
It was the stuff we do to distract ourselves from the stuff we don’t want to face. And before our group sing along ( same company car and cassette player) with John Prine on visitation weekends during I-71 transits. The line from “Please Don’t Bury Me” that ends in “Kiss my Ass Goodbye” was a crowd favorite!
