Tom Was Sending a Subliminal Message
« on: July 25, 2007, 09:30:43 AM »
I don't know what it means, but I will never forget it.

I love his lawn
I love his lawn
I love his lawn
I love his lawn
I love his lawn
I love his lawn
I love his lawn
I love his lawn

I suspect some sort Manchurian Candidate keyword this week, to send us all into a hypnotic trance state from which we commit some heinous crime to overthrow society.

At first, I was thinking:

I love his law
I love his law
I love his law
I love his law
I love his law
I love his law

Which obviously is a Murphy's Law reference - and perfect on a night when so many things seemed to bog him down.

But then I got it:

I love Islam
I love Islam
I love Islam
I love Islam
I love Islam
I love Islam
I love Islam

(Then I read in the unauthorized autobiography of Paul McCartney, Am I the Walrus?, that Paul and Linda were only paying tribute to Yusuf Islam, formerly Cat Stevens, for his contributions to the world of music. Caused quite a stir when it was first released though.)

Huh. All that makes sense, except that the lyric is really:

I love his slaw
I love his slaw
I love his slaw
I love his slaw
I love his slaw
I love his slaw

The call from Thor in Eastbridge was great, too.  I love those last minute throwaway calls.

I heard: "and nobody here's at home".  I missed the part where it started skipping, so I thought it was a song proper.

Yah, that might have been my first call. I mentioned Mason Rudolph's autograph and Tom asked something like "What kind of circles do you roll in?"

I am saving my close encounter with Dolly Parton until a later time.
