Mr. Lee, Mr. Lee!
Hey neat. I just caught the tail end of a song on WNTI that I had never heard before…

Check out the song (a local link)
The refrain is “Mr. Lee Mr. Lee. Oh, Mr. Lee”. A lot of people have called me “Mr. Lee” before, and they sometimes double it up, “Mr. Lee, Mr. Lee!” but I always thought they were calling me that because of it’s Chinese sound and it’s fun to say. Go ahead, try it! Oh, and, no my name isn’t Chinese, it’s a shortened form of a Hungarian name. Wow. I’ve lived my whole life without knowing this personally important facet of the collective unconscious!
