....You could get killed in New York saying things like "groovy", too...
When all the world was singing about love-ins and chocolate watchbands, my favorite New Yorkers -- the Velvet Underground -- were singin' about venus in furs and shiny shiny boots of leather heheh.

We needed groups like the Velvet Underground to balance out songs like Simon & Garfunkle's "Feelin' Groovy" song -- which, by the way, was subtitled "The 59th Street Bridge Song".
The 59th Street Bridge is the only means of driving from Queens to Manhattan for free. If you take the Midtown Tunnel, you have to pay a toll.
So I guess the free access is *some* reason for "feelin' groovy". But I'll take the (fake) furs and shiny boots instead of all da "grooviness". :)
Oh, and I have one exception regarding the use of "groovy". Alexander Scott and Kelly Robinson use that expression an awful lot in the old *I Spy* teevee series, and they're cool, regardless. :)

Talking about furs...
My 11-month old Nephele yesterday saw a lady wearing a fur coat and, confused, started shouting "Arf! Arf!" presumably mistaking her for rover. Makes you wonder....
