On the plus side, Burlington went awesome town this song to this day gives me shivers. I group in Bethlehem Pennsylvania. Harry is playing Lehigh campus. I could not sneak in to the arena. I had no money back then we listen to him outside. The arena just sounded beautiful.

It was Ottawa. Harry Chapin had his light on. It was his time off. He was taking a break. A few minutes later a woman waves me over. It was a man in the middle attack. I didn't realize till a few years ago. Karen was complaining to every one that I wouldn't approach her because she was white. My community verified this because they wanted to be popular with the hippies and Tommy Chong the Chinese dukabor manager of the Victory Burlesque Theater in Toronto's chinatown. Tommy Chong had someone on staff. After every striptease performance this staff member would take a towel and wipe down the chairs of semen before the next performance. The Victory Burlesque Theatre was owned amd operated by two prominent members of the J$wish business community (Honest Ed Mirvish and our former mayor Mel Lastman the bad boy of Toronto perhaps?) As a good businessman, it would be bad business to locate the Victory Burlesque on Church Street unless Matthew McCounaghey and Chris Hemsley are willing to do Magic Mike for gay men. This is Dita von Teese not Chippendales for the gay. This is not Remingtons gay Men of Steele for gay men. This is old school mafia 'I kill you if you touch her chinaman' strip tease. So location location location. Where are all your best customers. CHINATOWN you chinese sex perverts. Am I responsible for their degenerate sexual behaviour Karen. It's not like I am in denial. The Nylons have a stocking wrapped round their microphone like the nylons Canadian troops wore round their dick to keep their penis warm killing Germans and Japs for their nylon stocking fetish. Old timers remember. You bed the girl and she sends you off to kill with a pair of her preverted Christian nylons to keep you warm
