When I was young and naive, my parents listening to rock music on the radio, I would often wonder what Eric Clapton's lady-friend had against the fine state of Washington... because I could hear him singing, loud and clear to me anyway, that "She don't like, she don't like, she don't like... Spokane."
At least I know better now... And I sometimes wonder why my parents exposed me to this sort of music when I was younger. (I listened to The Doors when I was 4...) Oh well. I don't smoke, drink, or do drugs, so I don't suppose it's hurt me any!
