Of course the name Loudon Wainwright III sounds familiar.  Who could forget
the big summer hit of 1972 titled "Dead Skunk in the Middle of the ROAD".
For those of you whose memories need jogging, here's a portion of the song
(yes, I know this is net.tv and not net.music, but the question was asked
here).

	Crossing the highway late last night
	He didn't look left, he didn't look right
	He didn't see the station wagon car
	The skunk got squashed and there you are

	(chorus)
	You got your dead skunk in the middle of the road
	dead skunk in the middle of the road
	dead skunk in the middle of the road
	And he's stinking to high heaven.


Makes about as much sense as suicide is painless.
