Dear Boss...

Thanks to dedicated Infinite Jest reader Lisa for sharing this with us:

So for those of you who aren't fans of Irish folk music, look up the song "Dear Boss/Bricklayers Song" on YouTube, and you'll see that it is an exact telling of the unfortunate events in the insurance memo on pp. 139-140. It's a great song too.

There appear to be loads of versions of the song on YouTube; here's one: The Clancy Brothers with Robbie O'Connell.
