...guide, marsh warden, bird advisory officer, conservationist, naturalist and lecturer, he is a legendary figure in British wildlife circles. He is called Kenzie the Wild-Goose Man. He is also the Owl Man, the Weasel Man, the Finch Man−a caller of the wild who can lure a hare from its hole or a baby seal onto the beach. Thorpe can mimic 88 different bird calls, ranging from the swallow's high titter to the low cluck of the red-legged partridge and the sexy whistle of the gray plover...

"My Sweet Lord," a Top 40 hit, is musically a direct steal from the Chiffons' great "He's So Fine," and must have been done as a deliberate goof. There is something genuinely funny about substituting "hare krishna" for "dulang dulang dulang."

Finally, Hoyt encountered one of the first...
...teams have grasped the idea of the Square as Game, and they play it to the hilt. The most conspicuous is the Hare Krishna people. They have shaved heads with pigtails, wear long white robes, and chant HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA KRISHNA KRISHNA HARE HARE/HARE RAMA HARE RAMA RAMA RAMA HARE HARE. They contend that this makes their lives sublime, and that it can do the same for you and me. They ask for money and distribute cards bearing the chant I have just outlined. Take a card, because it contains also an invitation to a love feast held every...
