In earlier drafts of the lyrics I had mention of some historical specifics, but they were too vague. I did not want to go through all the episodes and make it about one of their adventures in specific. That would have used up pretty much all the storytelling time I had to work with. So I made it entirely about Sherman's life after the show, thinking that _that_ story was the one I want to tell, even if it didn't quite meet the challenge. Since I was no longer in the running, I was trying to make the process more like fun, less like work.<br /><br />For various reasons, even with Joe and Denise's help and encouragement, because of a lot of technical problems this one turned out not to be much fun to work on, but in _retrospect_ I'm glad I wrote it the way I did.<br /><br />The sound at 0:32 is a tuba player making a rasberry or something: whenever Peabody makes his horrible pun at the end of the episode, there is this foghorn sound to indicate "THE HORRIBLE PUN HAS ARRIVED... CLEAR THE BUILDING IMMEDIATELY."Paul R.

"I Have A Leap" is...For clarification...<br /><br />"I Have A Leap" isn't about MLK's assassination. In 1958, a crazy woman by name of Izola Curry really did try to kill the man. She saw him at a book signing in a Blumstein's store and stabbed him in the chest with a letter opener. The cops pulled her away just in time; the blade was resting right against his heart, and if he had sneezed, it would have killed him.<br /><br />The only part that's fictional is the Quantum Leap element. At least...as far as WE know...ITCnoreply@blogger.com
