I love to sing along when I shower and one of my favorite songs right now is "Sylvia's Mother" by Dr. Hook .....it is about a caller who is desparate to talk to his ex-girlfriend - Sylvia - one more time from a phone booth and there is this voice from the operator asking him to deposit another forty cents for the next three minutes...those times of operator interrupted calls are long gone - today forty American cents would be roughly 28 European cents, enough money to allow for a ten minute international,overseas phone call between Carolin's mother here and her daughter in Belleville...now that's really good news to sing about.
