Quislet, Esq. would draft interrogatories for the Misters Steinman and Loaf to clarify matters of that. I would post a series of comic book covers to illustrate the lyrics of this Billboard Hot 100 #1 hit (for 7 weeks in 1993). That thing you do -- how would you do it (or don't do it) to interpret this Meat Loaf monster smash?

Which, now that I think of it, is the 1950s Male/Female "ideal" relationship in capsule form. Or at least the advertisers' fantasy version. Which I swear, is not at all what I intended. I'm taking the rest of the decade off from the internets, I think... When I get back, we'll have peanut butter cookies, okay? Hey, Kids!
