Judith,

Now this is real quality and fun and the way a Robert Rosen
list should be! I can get a few and I add a bit from one of your
sources...

Tom Lehrer's (sp of his name) song about Werner Von Braun
(sp of his name?) German rocket scientist. Here's another
snippet from a song by same comic/music genius, this one a
spoof on Catholicism:

(the chorus)

Time to get down on your knees
Fiddle with your rosaries
Bow your head in great respect and
Genuflect! Genuflect! Genuflect!

and somewhere else in the song

2, 4, 6, 8 - time to transubstantiate!

Had to be Clouseau's boss...

Monty Python's Flying Circus (I'm a big fan).

Also in that skit

"Norwegian Blues prefer kippin' on their backs"

Wizard of Oz?

Thanks,
