Please, not ABBA!

[MASCARO at humnet.ucla.edu]

Adam's testimonial to ABBA is sadder than all the sad songs we've mentioned so far.  Or 
maybe I missed the epic scope of their sweeping vision, like the devilish wordplay of their 
name.  Just gimme a cup (hey, make it a *grande*) of that Starbucks Decaf Cappucino 
Amaretto latte, a good Marge Piercy (or maybe that Ann Beattie) to curl up with in my B & 
N armchair, "Waterloo" on the earphones, and oh man is this better'n drugs or what? An 
orgasmic fit!


aghast,
