This week's winner: Stewart O. Olson of St. Petersburg knew that rocker Lou Reed shacks up in a romantic way with avant pop princess Laurie Anderson.

This week's question: In a strange twist of fate, former 10,000 Maniacs singer Natalie Merchant performs Tuesday night in St. Petersburg. Tuesday is the birthday of an American writer of the Beat Generation, who died in St. Petersburg and was celebrated in a 10,000 Maniacs song. To enter your name in the random drawing for the Weekend T-shirt, tell me the name of the 10,000 Maniacs song that honors this scribe.
