My mind, constantly whirring on the mundane, discovered that little exiled Cuban waif Elian Gonzalez’s name fits perfectly into the Sarah McLaughlin song “Ediyah.”
Picture it as though it’s being sung my the little boy’s Uncles and Aunts as he’s on his way back to Cooba:
*"Elian I do believe I failed you …
Elian I know I let you down …
Elian I’m empty since you left me …"*
etc., etc.
Minutely amusing. Yeah, that’s how my mind works.
Anyway, with this story everywhere you turn at all times now, that song pops into my head every single time the subject comes up now.
I’m going insane.
Just thought I’d share.

Well, it’s almost two am and I still have a song by Stealers Wheel going through my head having watched ‘Reservoir Dogs’ on Wednesday night, ‘clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right, here I am stuck in the middle with you.’ ARGHHHHH!! * Where is the mind’s reset button?? *
“Please Disregard the Following.”
Aw, Anti Pro, do you have that gruesome scene still stuck in your head also? That scene makes my knees go weak, even thinking about it.
Here’s one. I just thought about starting a thread with it after reading the initial post, but I’m sure it would sink in a hurry. Anyway, every now and then, every sentence that I speak, I have a visual image of my fingers typing the words. This has been going on ever since I learned to type - 15 some-odd years ago.
