I just forwarded those four Dave Barry columns to my office partner, and read them along with him. We damn near died of Overlaugh!

OK, I've got two that will haunt you for the rest of the day (please forgive me):

Brand New Key - Melanie

I Have a Nickel - some bratty little child singer and an adult accomplice.

That would be "Playground In My Mind" by Clint Holmes. No relation to "Pina Colada" Rupert Holmes.

Brand New Key - Melanie

Brand New Key.

OK, now you've done it--you reminded me of "Playground in My Mind."
