Dealing With Illusions (or Life on a Parkinson’s Drug): “I was drinking coffee in the kitchen one night a few years ago when I heard, emanating from our stereo system two rooms away, the unmistakable voice of Marilyn Monroe singing “Happy Birthday, Mr. President.”

Startled, I asked my wife, Gina, what that recording was doing on our stereo.

“You’re hallucinating,” she said. “That’s the Grateful Dead. It’s not even close to ‘Happy Birthday,’ much less Marilyn Monroe.”” (New York Times)
