Howdy,

I think I recorded a small bit of this on cassette probably 30 years
ago, found someone else on the net who had recorded part, and wrote down
the words, but doesn't know who it was, or what the name of the
selection was.

It involves a radio station-like presentation of the various classes in
high school. The last one is a home ec teacher named Nancy Fancy,
giving instructions on tie-dying that go like this:

This is Nancy Fancy with Home Economics. Today we're going
to learn about our clothing, and the way we're going to learn
is by making an actual piece of clothing we can wear ourselves,
or give to a friend. We are going to tie-dye a tie! Now
watch carefully. First you take the tie you're going to dye
and tie it. When the tie is tightly tied, you dip the tie in
the tie-dye dye! Ooh! When the tie-dyed tie is dried, you
take the dye you just applied and set it a side. Re-tie the
tie-dyed tie, take another dye, dip the re-tied tie in this
dye, too. Take it out, let it dry, untie the tie, and you've
got a tie-dyed tie. And a tie's not all you can tie-dye. You
can tie-dye a tutu, too! Take the tutu, tie the tutu, dip it
in the dye, let it dry like the tie we dyed, now tear the tutu
in two. Now you've got two tutus to tie-dye! Take the two
ties you tie-dyed, and the two tutus you've torn in two and
tied, and dip them in the dye!

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Bill

Awesome! Thanks, Gary! I was torn between Conception Corporation and
Firesign Theatre as possible leads.

Thanks again,
Bill
