Akiruno. I haven't heard that 'song' for decades. I remember it from the '60s. I think it was played on the radio before it became too 'politically incorrect'. You must be an 'old timer' too. I just looked it up on YouTube. It was actually a bit disturbing. I have been quoting that damn thing for decades and nobody knew what it was.

In less than four days Albuquerque will be bustling with tourists and chase crews, while the skies will be filled with balloons of all shapes and colors.

There's a countdown clock at the website.

Oh, and "Cuckoo's Nest" is definitely one of my favorite movies of all time, besides being an excellent novel.
