l,n Vl Presenting: "The History of Swing Choir," an intellectual report. Back in 1933, the gangster Cliff Whitman, alias the Barbequed Eyeball, was heard saying, "Don't give me that song and dance" to his righthand man, "Sticky Mitt" Simpson. Minutes later, Whitman was brutally slain by the wild boar that he kept in his car for some unknown reason. Well, "Sticky Mitt," not thinking too highly of his ex-boss, decided that he would hire a few guys and gals to give good ol' Cliff a song and dance anyway. Thus, the first swing choir gave its first performance at Cliff's funeral. For time, this was the thing to do at all funerals. Now, in the 1980s, these choirs just perform for dead audiences.
