Uh, I just realized that that's not right ...

My mother once said to me about Carly Simon's "You're so vain," -- "Oh, what
a stupid song. She must be on drugs! That part about the cows ..." and I
said, "Cows? What cows?" "You know - 'I had some dreams, they were cows in
my coffee'." I said, "MOM!! That's clouds.... you know, like cream floating
in your coffee ..." "Oh. Well, that's still stupid."
