Your favorite rumor

It was: " I buried Paul"...on Abbey Road album.
BTW, how would this be for a rumor: Vaillant returns to the U.S. market with an oil-fired mod-con?

    Just for fun

    A lot of folks might say the best is that Britney Spears is the illegitimate child of Anna Nicole Smith but I prefer the old one: "Paul McCartney is dead." If you played one of the Beatle's songs backward (forgot which one -- of the White Album) it said "Paul is dead." That was fun.

    Mine:

    Brad is really a contractor in engineers clothes.

    Has anyone ever seen a blue stain on his shirt pocket?

    :-))

    I looked down and by golly

    there was this blue stain! The pocket liner failed again! :)

    Thanks, Jack. There is at least one engineer that takes being called a contractor a compliment.

    Oh, John!

    You start such great threads!

    My favorite rumor around here (in coastal Maine) is that: "We are tight on money right now, but we will pay you when we get back from Florida".

    I go home when I hear that stuff.

    Favorite email/rumor

    At this time of year, I want to thank all of you who have taken the time and trouble to send me your chain letters over the past 12 months.

    Thank you for making me feel safe, secure, blessed, and wealthy. Because of your concern I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains. I no longer drink Pepsi or Dr Pepper since the people who make these products are atheists who refuse to put ‘Under God’ on their cans.

    I no longer drink anything out of a can because I will get sick from the rat feces and urine. I no longer use Saran wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer. I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be pricked with a needle infected with AIDS. I no longer use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a water buffalo on a hot day. I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a perfume sample and rob me. I no longer receive packages from UPS! or FedEx since they are actually Al Qaeda in disguise. I no longer shop at Target since they are French and don’t support our American troops or the Salvation Army.

    I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a number for which I will get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica, Uganda, Singapore and Uzbekistan. I no longer eat pre-packaged foods because the estrogens they contain will turn me gay. I no longer eat KFC because their chickens are actually horrible mutant freaks with no eyes or feathers. I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have their recipe. I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking out for me and St. Theresa’s novena has granted my every wish.

    Thanks to you, I have learned that God only answers my prayers if I forward an email to seven of my friends and make a wish within five minutes. (I don’t remember that in the Bible.) I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl who is about to die in the hospital (for the 1,387,258th time). I no longer have any money at all, but that will change once I receive the $15,000 that Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their special e-mail program.

    Yes, I want to thank all of you soooo much for looking out for me that I will now return the favor! If you don’t send this e-mail to at least 144,000 people in the next 70 minutes, a large dove with diarrhea will land on your head at 5:00 PM this afternoon and the fleas from 12 camels will infest your back, causing you to grow a hairy hump.

    I know this will occur because it actually happened to a friend of my next door neighbor’s ex-mother-in-law’s second husband’s cousin’s beautician! Honest!

    That was at the end of Strawberry Fields Forever on the Magical Mystery Tour album. Abbey Road was the pic on back with Paul dressed for an Italian funeral and 28if on the bugs license plate.

    The greatest rumor of all times, even better than Elvis spotted at a Burger King.

    According to John Lennon

    the actual lyric was "cranberry sauce". This appears in the book of the last interview he and Yoko gave before he was killed (Playboy Magazine). In it is Lennon's discussion of most of the songs he wrote, with and without Paul McCartney. Fascinating reading, I'll never hear those songs the same again.

    I don't believe it. I think it was I Buried Paul. Was that article in a book? If so, do you know the name? I'm looking for new reading material and I'm almost done with Dan's book on radiant.

    I have the book

    the full version did not appear in the magazine- probably not enough room :-0 . They decided to publish the book after John was killed. It's called "The Playboy Interviews with John Lennon and Yoko Ono". You might be able to find it on a used-book site like www.abebooks.com .

    On the white album

    if you played Revelution # 9 backwards there was a part that said " Paul is a deadman .. miss him, miss him "

    At least after a few puffs it Sounded that way.

    Johns not totally wrong.

    There where sounds that sounded like a car crash, ambulance and some other voices.

    Well

    that might have helped with the words but ....

    You put the record on the turntable and used a pencil. The eraser tip was placed on the recored and you turned it backwards.

    Gees Rick I thought you where a child of the seventies. Must have been the late seventies :)

    Turn me on, deadman

    You play it backwards and I think it says "Turn me on, deadman, turn me on, deadman." Then you hear the car crash and other stuff. Let's be careful here, gang. We're treading in dangerous waters -- this is how Charles Manson got started...

    John talks about that one too

    in the book. They fed a whole bunch of stuff into that track, and he did a few mixes until he got one he liked. It was a very experimental track.
