25. There's a Zappa song about that

Listening just now, and hadn't for a decade or two, it's my hero Zappa as a writer/performer of traditional American Folk songs. He loved writing songs about weird sexual stuff he witnessed first hand or verbally. Incredibly funny and I guess pretty misogynistic besides.

I'm reading a remarkable book by Pauline Butcher?, a Zappa employee from around 1969 to maybe 1973. Learning a lot of stuff I never never ever knew about Zappa's satellite of people. "Tended to treat other peoples lives in a not so nice way." is roughly what Suzy Creamcheese said about Frank for the 1972 book No Commercial Potential. Zappa had a creepy side and could be pretty severe to his wife and kids. This book was my springboard to begin my lifelong study of what Zappa was. It's been very helpful on my path to becoming an accomplished critical thinker. Someday. Work in Progress.
