My 2,002 post

[Waldo]

G'day,

Well I was going to put up some useless drivel regarding my 2,000th post but I stuffed that up in the Bar is Open, see post 85.

So what do you post on your 2,002 post?

Well I thought this might be a good choice:

Astronomy Domine by Pink Floyd.
(Barrett) 4:12

Lime and limpid green, a second scene
A fight between the blue you once knew.
Floating down, the sound resounds
Around the icy waters underground.
Jupiter and Saturn, Oberon, Miranda
And Titania, Neptune, Titan.
Stars can frighten.

Blinding signs flap,
Flicker, flicker, flicker blam. Pow, pow.
Stairway scare Dan Dare who's there?
Lime and limpid green
The sounds surrounds the icy waters underground
Lime and limpid green
The sounds surrounds the icy waters underground.

When you think about it, it makes a lot of sence really for a 2,002 post - about stuff all.

But what a great band.

I wasted my 2000th too but this is what I should have posted:

Whats he building in there?
What the hell is he building
In there?
He has subscriptions to those
Magazines... he never
Waves when he goes by
Hes hiding something from
The rest of us... hes all
To himself... I think I know
Why... he took down the
Tire swing from the peppertree
He has no children of his
Own you see... he has no dog
And he has no friends and
His lawn is dying... and
What about all those packages
He sends. whats he building in there?
With that hook light
On the stairs. whats he building
In there... Ill tell you one thing
Hes not building a playhouse for
The children whats he building
In there?

Now whats that sound from under the door?
Hes pounding nails into a
Hardwood floor... and i
Swear to God I heard someone
Moaning low... and I keep
Seeing the blue light of a
T.v. show...
He has a router
And a table saw... and you
Wont believe what mr. sticha saw
Theres poison underneath the sink
Of course... but theres also
Enough formaldehyde to choke
A horse... whats he building
In there. what the hell is he
Building in there? I heard he
Has an ex-wife in some place
Called mayors income, tennessee
And he used to have a
Consulting business in indonesia...
But what is he building in there?
What the hell is building in there?

He has no friends
But he gets a lot of mail
Ill bet he spent a little
Time in jail...
I heard he was up on the
Roof last night
Signaling with a flashlight
And whats that tune hes
Always whistling...
Whats he building in there?
Whats he building in there?

We have a right to know.

Tom Waits - the greatest living poet IMHO - Dylan lives in his shadow..

The thing I like about Tom is his music structure i so brilliantly agricultural.
