9/13    Does anyone know who or what Proud Mary refers to in the
        song of the same name by CCR?
                \_ a steamboat?
                   \_ yes, obviously.
                      Though I've also become partial to the interpretation
                      of the line "But I never saw the good side of the city\
                      'till I hitched a ride on a riverboat queen" as a
                      double entendre.  -tom
