Wow.  You read.  You discussed.  You reacted (some more strongly than others -- yes, I'm talking to you Alan).

Thanks for all the E-mails.  I'm a bit surprised that no one commented on the video.  I guess it's "hilarious" in a late 90s viral video kind of way.  I guess I'll always be a sucker for bloopers (cue "Smokey and the Bandit" credits).

But you liked the music part.  So in response to your response:  You demanded the complete lists and here they are (I didn't include all of them - just ones within reach at the time this was penned).

Let me know what you think.
