"Listen Thornapple, if you HAVE to whistle-up your courage, try something a little breezier than the 'Dead March', huh?"
"I'M not whistling--Wasn't YOU whistling?"
(September 30, 1966) |
The "Dead March" referred to here is the one from Handel. I am not familiar with it, but maybe others are. Most of us probably more familiar with Chopin's "Funeral March" and possibly Beethoven's funeral marches and Mendelsohn's. Typically, the music I hear when walking through the cemetery at night is either something from The Bloodhound Gang or the Felix the Cat theme song.
"Whistle-up your courage"? Ok.
You
are going berserk. Who are you talking to? The readers are not in the room with you.
