That first one is a classic. I remember when my kids looked at me and Julie funny the first time we sang that little ditty. Then we showed them and they've loved it ever since.

If you want more fun - go look up "Monsterpiece Theatre" - especially the one with The Horse Whisperer or Dr. No.
Whee! I remembered that first one as soon as I saw the opening--yes, they showed carefully selected episodes of The Muppet Show in commie Hungary on occassion. That was one of my favorites.

Nah - I'm fine. Oh, and I have a suggestion for the next time you put up a financial post. Have your website play "The Money Song" by Monty Python.
