<p class="MsoNormal">I first encountered "Cosmic Muffin" in the song "Deteriorata" from the National Lampoon Radio Dinner Album in 1972.  Actually heard it on the Dr Demento show.

He and his SO at the time suggested I watch the movie with an open mind.  So, I did, and subsequently wrote these two log entries:<br>

I re-read those entries before sending this to be sure my self from 4-5 years ago doesn't sound too stupid.  But, IDK.  Life's too short to be embarrassed.<br>
