BR> Oh well, we had our share of those too.  Anybody
BR> remember the Cowsills or the 1910 Fruitgum Company?

Of course.  The Cowsills were the basis for The Partridge Family, and were
going to BE the Partridge Family, but when ABC wanted everyone but the mom
(Using Shirley Jones instead), the family said no, and we got the TV family.

Cowsills had a few big hits, like "Indian Lake", "The Rain, The Park, And Other
Things" and "Hair".  They also did the theme for the TV Show "Love, American
Style".  They have a website at http://www.cowsills.com/.

How's that for usless trivia?  :-)
