I think I was being "tested" a couple weeks ago at a dinner with some of my wife's work acquaintances. They knew I had a rep as a music snob and am opening a record store, so they brought out what they thought was some edgy stuff--old albums by the Roches and an a capella group called the Nylons. I thought I'd barf. But I kept my cool and politely nodded, and murmurred little nothings like, "Hmm. Yes. I see. Really?"
