More please.
It's a Haiku. Genius
That or thinner thighs.
I once knew a person who used to make rubbish .ST3 files on his computer. One of his "tewns" was called "Bored," and then one night he made a remix of it called "Bored 3am." I don't really know why. Anyway, I though this might be of interest to you.
I assume this is the BBC World Service? Do you live in Botswana or something?
I don't live in Botswana. I live in Wales. You can listen to the BBC world service at night after Radio 4 shuts down. I listen to it when I have bouts of insomnia. On a particularly restless night I might hear the news headlines four or five times. So I learn a lot about world affairs. Though once I woke up convinced I'd heard that Yasser Arafat had been assasinated, but it turned out to be a dream.
Also, I love making crap music on my PC. It's such a democratic medium - anyone with a computer and some cheap software can sample away to their hearts content.
I once wrote a song called "3am Eternal".
Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Eternuh-oo-uh-oo-ul Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Eternuh-oo-uh-oo-ul Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Eternuh-oo-uh-oo-ul Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Eternuh-oo-uh-oo-ul Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Eternuh-oo-uh-oo-ul Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Eternuh-oo-uh-oo-ul Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Eternuh-oo-uh-oo-ul Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Eternuh-oo-uh-oo-ul Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Eternuh-oo-uh-oo-ul Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Three-ay-ee-ay-em Eternuh-oo-uh-oo-ul
Perhaps you had been unconciously listening to an episode of On The Hour. I seem to recall one particular spoof headline that read:
ARAFAT ABLAZE IN KEROSENE OYSTER HELL
Not much to add to that, very good observation
nice, lol.
