I'll be posting some rhymology in the a.m. about the Marx Bros' childhood home situation... GOOD LORD, even moreso than John Lennon's rants about how totally excellent NYC was during his life here, it was my reading of the Marx Bros' biog's and autobiog's during my Missouri adolescence that made me fall in love with NYC!
However, I must say, the piss-poor presentation of Bill Marx's youtube video and the poorly edited blog & petition linked to on his youtube page make me feel even more frustrated than usual that my NYC Rhymology site doesn't have a space where I can blow off some steam!!... [deep breath]
