I wonder how Williams managed that incredible bend in his voice. My guess is pliers and a very sensitive part of his anatomy.

I am delighted to see you are playing a half of the entire recorded reportoire of The Cook Sisters. In my opinion they are the best of all the sibling acts including Else and Doris Waters. I knew Doris when she was just a puddle.

Doris later married Carl Rivers. They spawned a fine family.

Sat. 5/3/08 10:37am From: Doris Waters

Thanks, Ted. You used to say we were the best - POTABLE, you called us.

Sat. 5/3/08 10:47am From: A Long Memory

I can assure Mr Idleburg that they weren't the only family spawned by that rascal. "Rivers, Stay 'Way From My Door" was a popular sentiment round here.

Sat. 5/3/08 11:04am From: Irma Quibbling

On the subject of water, is it true that Collins H. Driggs died drunk playing with his Novachord in the bath?

Sat. 5/3/08 11:18am From: John London

Thank you, Mr Edison. A very funny, very beautiful hour
