From: Mike Ciaraldi <ciaraldi> I always thought it was... "In his Thunderbolt Greaseslapper, now He's on your trail." i.e. the missing word is "now". Maybe this is just gestalt filling in the word. While we are on the subject of missing words (but not from animated shows), I have wondered for years what adjective describes Lola's voice in the Kinks song. i.e. "I asked her her name and in a **** voice she said, 'Lola.'" It always sounds like "suff-rone" phonetically to me. Any one know? Mike Ciaraldi seismo!rochester!ciaraldi

It'd make sense for Lola to have a guttural voice if she was a guy once, right? Oh well.... The Gray Mouser
