    My 4-year-old daughter was singing “Your flag decal won’t get you into heaven anymore” in the Jewel one day.

  9. I once came across my daughter singing “…and the news just repeats itself, like some forgotten dream, that we’ve both seen.”

    She was five.

    Same with Ebert, who first told the masses about the “singing mailman” in 1970.

  12. “If dreams were lightning, and thunder was desire, this old house would have burned down a long time ago…”
