Misanthrope's Lament (aka "People Suck")

A Tom Lehrer-esque sort of song. Inspired by Jonathan Coulton, I'm recording one song per week at least through November; this is song #3 in sequence.

This song is (c) 2009 Glen Raphael

[Tech stuff: this one was done entirely in iMovie using the built-in camera and an Apogee One. Some color correction and sound-level adjustment; no extra effects)

If you have a dog instead of a cat, the alternate glen-approved stanza for that purpose is:
"Yeah, people suck/you might have noticed/unless you have been living in a fog/the longer I spend around people, the more I like my dog"

This is getting silly. do you guys only have one laptop between the two of you? If so I can sort of sympathize, but if not, I'm laying down the law: Miho needs to sign up for her own account so I can keep you straight...at least occasionally...

...not to say that I wouldn't want to be with either of you in particular. I just like to know who's offering. :-)
