“'In the duck world, San Francisco is almost impossible.'”
Strange sentence. It's from an article on the use of kazoo-like instruments to promote amphibious-vehicle tours in San Francisco:
A Quacking Kazoo Sets Off a Squabble (New York Times)
I'd be remiss if I didn't include a link to the 1953 Merrie Melodies cartoon that gave me my title:
Duck Amuck (YouTube)
I should add that this cartoon is a major influence on John Ashbery's poem "Daffy Duck in Hollywood" (Houseboat Days, 1977).
What's that? I shouldn't?
