Hey.

Monday I went with Dad to Mountain Home VA Hospital so he could get a check-up. On the way back we were listening to the Knoxville NPR station's classical music program and they were playing Ketelbey's "In A Persian Market".



Afterwards Dad quipped that the chorus reminded him of Florida State Seminoles fans--or Atlanta Braves fans as well, I suppose--cheering sections at a home game.

PS: I know the chorus is really saying (free translation)...
Give Us! Give Us! Money for the poor
Give Us! Give Us! Money for the poor
Give Us! Give Us! Money for the poor
Thank You! Thank You! Good Day!
