Steve,

I think Joan Jett did a cover of this for ESPN's coverage of the NCAA Women's Final Four several years ago. Naturally, much more rockin'. If you find a copy of it, I'd love to have one.

Gracie,

I'll watch for that for you.

I lived in the Twin Cities in the mid 70s when the show was being filmed.

Most folks will never realize how immensely proud Minneapolis was, as every week, they watched Mary Richards stroll down their very own Lake of the Isles, ride the Skyway Escalator in the IDS building, and throw her hat into the air on Nicollet Mall.

She was THEIR Mary.

And she's gonna make it after all!
