2. You misspelled a word in your OP. You meant to type 'sucks' but it came out as 'rocks'.
You're welcome.

7. There's a MacArthur Park in San Antonio, where I grew up. My grandfather used to take us kids
there to play on the playground all the time. The first time I ever heard of the song, I thought it was about MY MacArthur Park; I thought: "Cool! Someone else wrote a song about it."

Didn't know at the time that it was another MacArthur park... :dunce:

8. I would never leave cake out in the rain. The alternative would be death. Cake or death?

9. MacArthur Park was downright dangerous
back when I was living in LA. Major hardcore drug scene, and bad gang problems.

Leaving your cake out in the rain was the least of your problems. Don't get caught there at night.
