So when you’re waiting in line at 4 am to bum rush the Best Buy to snatch up a flat screen TV (rabbit punching anyone who stands in your way), let this be your theme song. Of course this song is actually referring to the stock market crash that led to the Great Depression, not the insane shopping extravaganza the day after Thanksgiving that I was alluding to.
Probably one of the most cerebral band names of all time, Steely Dan, for those of you who don’t know, derived it’s moniker from a dildo featured in Naked Lunch which was written by the inimitable William S. Burroughs. That particular piece of literature continues to disturb me to this day. But not in a particularly bad way.
