Tune du Jour: “In the Ghetto” – Elvis Presley
THE CLASH of Cover Tunes: C.I.A. vs. Susan Cadogan vs. Nick Cave
Everybody’s Dressin’ Funny … Cover Me Impressed!
Read it in the Sunday Papers …
A Spanish civil servant didn’t show up at work for six years, and his absence was only noticed when he was nominated for a dedicated service award. Joaquin Garcia, 69, was tasked with overseeing the construction of a water plant in Cadiz in 2004, but decided the job was beneath him and stayed home to read philosophy. He kept collecting his $41,500 salary until city officials tried to give him an award for 20 years of loyal service – prompting co-workers to say they hadn’t seen him in years. Garcia was fined $30,300 last week for his six-year absence, but he’s appealing, saying he’s the victim of a media “lynching.”

Oh the disharmony! Much like Harlan County there are no neutrals here. It is your solemn responsibility to decide which cover song prevails. In other words … Which Side Are You On?!!?
