Please, not ABBA!

[LBernier at tribune.com]

     I've had a soft spot for ABBA, particularly Waterloo, since I saw 
     "Muriel's Wedding."

Adam's testimonial to ABBA is sadder than all the sad songs we've mentioned so 
fa r.  Or 
maybe I missed the epic scope of their sweeping vision, like the devilish 
wordpla y of their 
name.  Just gimme a cup (hey, make it a *grande*) of that Starbucks Decaf 
Cappuci no 
Amaretto latte, a good Marge Piercy (or maybe that Ann Beattie) to curl up with 
i n my B & 
N armchair, "Waterloo" on the earphones, and oh man is this better'n drugs or 
wha t? An 
orgasmic fit!
     
     
aghast,
