VINTAGE rick
It
was nearly unimaginable back then: Israelis and Palestinians
shaking hands on the White House lawn. It's even harder
to imagine now. Remember September of '93 in this Vintage
Rick!

Going ballistic
(Far) East Side Story
By Rick Horowitz
Korea,
The missiles take off from Korea,
They climb into the sky,
And then they quickly die
At sea.
Korea,
There's something not right with Korea,
We need to keep 'em calm,
'Cause they may have a bomb --
Or three!
Korea,
Say "Enough!" and they just ignore us,
Say "Back off!" and they threaten to war us,
Korea,
We're up to our ears with Korea.
[Instrumental interlude, in which the civilized nations of the world
dance desperately across the stage with various carrots and multiple
sticks, to absolutely no avail: North Korea's Dear Leader continues
to do exactly what he wants. The singing -- and hand-wringing -- resume...]
Korea,
There's no getting through to Korea,
No way to read their mind,
No way for us to find
The key.
Korea,
We can't make it stick with Korea,
We say, "They must do this,"
Then China begs to dis...
Agree.
Korea,
We've done all we can do to spook 'em --
And there's no way on earth we can nuke 'em --
Korea,
We might have to live with Korea!
