The writing reminds me of some of the missives posted here. Here is one on today’s topic of “severed heads.”

Laurence Simon - Don’t Put Another Drachma In The Jukebox

What’s with the singing box?

Well, remember the old story about Orpheus going to Hell to free his girlfriend?

He looks back - WHAM! Eurydice is back in Hell. A gang of women tear Orpheus apart, and his head falls into the stream, still singing.

Some chick puts the head in a box, sells it to a joint on the island, and it becomes the first jukebox.

Here it is. Just fifty bucks.

Problem is, it sings in Greek. It sounds so painful and sad, but beautiful. Too bad I don’t know Greek.

Do you?

Oh well. Still sounds beautiful.
