Looking forward to listening to the middle one, which is entirely new. (I've read the first, and can nearly recite the last from memory, though I'm partial to the "I'm not crazy" version.) Thanks!

Note that the link's screwed up; pretty sure the OP means this. The book is great, but don't miss the 1971 movie. Also, more info about I'm Not Crazy at the Joe Frank wiki.

I'm 70% sure that I wrote that text, except the music part. It's a small world. Cheers!

Maybe I saw the middle link after it was fixed, but I don't see a difference. I'm glad to know about it, though, and listening to it now.

Also, I probably should have said, "context," rather than "version." I suspect the actual clip is unchanged.
