The Humourous Side of Lush
Peter Granstr\vm (damned ascii character set!) [[email protected]] provided us with the intitial list of run-off groove scribbles. (ROGs are the little phrases that are often found scratched on the inner circle of a vinyl record... where the run-off groove is.) It has since been augmented (Thanks Jessica Gluckman!)
