Best Hair song? As a teenager, I got a kick out of singing "Sodomy" because of all of its naughty words. If I had to choose now, I think it would be "Frank Mills," probably because of my fondness for the Lemonheads covering it on It's a Shame About Ray.
I've been looking forward to it: you're keyed up to read Cetology, which is both a delight and the first real test of a lot of readers' patience with Melville engaging in his project of Complete Whale Knowledge!
There are YouTube channels where Internet Dads teach people how to change a tire or tie a Double Windsor knot. I love that for everyone who enjoys them.
But this inner-monologue of a parent summoning all of their love and respect for their adult child as to not embarrass them by belting out showtunes in a restaurant is the kind of dad-ness I require.
(Everyone please pretend that I posted this under the longer letter. Thank you.)
