“As for the apricot scarf and the tilted hat, again, perfectly appropriate for a maritime soiree.”

A retort to Carly Simon’s accusation “You’re so vain”.

Secondly, yes, I went up to Saratoga for an important horserace. And yes, my horse won, thanks to years of training and the hard work of all the people involved. Is this a bad thing?

Go read the whole thing – hilarious.

    did you read “The Lyrics to the Billy Joel Song “We Didn’t Start the Fire” If They Were Written by a Muskrat Instead of by Billy Joel.”? I am HOWLING with laughter.

    My guess has always been Burt Bachrach. He’s the only person I can connect to horse racing, Saratoga and the world of Carly Simon. I don’t think Jagger or Kristopherson ever owned horses. But I could be wrong.
