[edit] Miscellanea
- The songs "Bluebeard" and "Know Who You Are at Every Age" were covered by Cantopop artist Faye Wong for her 1994 album "Wu Si Lyun Seung" or "Random Thoughts". "Bluebeard" was renamed to become the album's title track, and "Know Who You Are at Every Age" became "Ji Gei Ji Bei" or "Know Yourself and Know the Others."
In his travelogue 'Blue Highways', William Least-Heat Moon describes his theory regarding how to find the best diner in small town America. The more local business calendars that are on display, the better. A four-calendar café is at the top of the scale!
