[ The bug that dares not speak its name]
	I like the lyrics to "Pamela Brown" (performed by Leo Kottke, but
I believe it was written by Tom T. Hall).
	"I'm the guy that didn't marry
		Pretty Pamela Brown"
It goes on to recite all the things that he's been able to do because
he didn't settle down with her.  
	"I guess the guy she married was the best part of my luck,
	 She dug him, 'cause he drove a pickup truck."
and finished
	"One of these days I might be in your town,
	 and I guess I owe it all to Pamela Brown."

It isn't a "hate" song like some of the things people have been posting
of late;  just a "things turned out better than I thought" song.
