OMG, Ardiril, I haven't heard "Telephone Man" since I was in junior high, I think. :D Too funny! I think the woman who sangs that was from Atlanta- specifically, Marietta, if I remember right.
Are you a Dr. Demento fan, Ardiril? Did you ever hear "Telephone Man"'s sequel? I think it's called "The Meter Reader" or something like that. Great stuff.
"Peter the Meter Reader" but I never heard it. Unfortunately, Dr. Demento didn't make it to my neck of the woods, but I did get to hear one show sometime somewhere. I would have been a fan though.
