No disrespect intended. “Orinda-Moraga” is a pretty damn good exit ramp to name a tune after.

If Fahey’d lived on the Other Coast, the same piece might be called “Bayonne-Perth Amboy.” Doesn’t have that same “Fata Morgana”-like ring to it, somehow.

**trose** - can you find a place in your movie for the guy who did the announcing at the Westminster Kennel Club dog shows? I think his name was Karas (sp?). He died this week too.

What a great, loving voice. The NPR report said he had nine dogs of his own.
