It's nice to know that Sandra Boynton is still alive and busy. (I claim that I was one of the early Hippo Birdie buyers during her greeting card heyday...)
I was quite tickled by Also Quacht Zarathustra, performed by the O.K. Chorale.

My boss bought Rhinoceros Tap for her kid, and got me hooked on it, too. I love The Crabby Song!!!

The first card of hers I ever saw was "For your birthday....a 21-bun salute!" showing, duh, 21 bunny rabbits saluting. It brought on a hysterical laughing fit right there in the bookstore, and I gave it to my Dad for his 50th birthday....which gave HIM a hysterical laughing fit.

Dang, that sure would be a good one to give to your lovely wife...
