More on the genesis of the Dawned on Me video, and the spinach tie-in. Weird but fun. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/comic-riffs/post/when-popeye-met-wilco/2012/01/26/gIQAcaQGVQ_blog.html#pagebreak?tid=sm_twitter_washingtonpost

Thanks to all who've posted. I've smiled at each one and that has made my morning.
