(Low bridge, cause we’re coming to a town!…) Anything would be better than this.įound a great quote about travel in a letter from John Adams to his wife yesterday. (Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal….) I am about to start playing Christmas carols as sung by the Animaniacs. Terrified students: “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!” (Classroom falls silent instantly.)Īnd now I can’t get the damn thing out of my head.


Then BH and I started singing “Low Bridge, Everybody Down” which every kid in Central New York learns to sing in second grade and then is forced to sing over and over every year as a form of torture and mind control.įrustrated Teacher: “If you kids don’t settle down back there, we’re all going to sing The Song fifty times instead of going out for recess.” On the way, we passed over the Erie Canal, which I pointed out to Mer’s boyfriend because he likes stuff like that. Yesterday we drove to Utica to watch Number One Son’s swim meet.
