Fascinating..

How many special people change
How many lives are living strange
Where were you when we were getting high?
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannon ball
Where were you while we were getting high?
Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova in the sky

Wake up the dawn and ask her why
A dreamer dreams she never dies
Wipe that tear away now from your eye
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannon ball
Where were you when we were getting high?

Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova in the sky

Cos people believe that theyre
Gonna get away for the summer
But you and i, we live and die
The worlds still spinning round
We dont know why
Why, why, why, why

How does it feel
To treat me like you do
When you've laid laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are

I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now how do I feel

Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They will turn away no more

And I still find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me
Just how I should feel today

I see a ship in the harbor
I can and shall obey
But if it wasn't for your misfortunes
I'd be a heavenly person today

And I thought I was mistaken
And I thought I heard you speak
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now how should I feel

Now I stand here waiting

I thought I told you to leave me
While I walked down to the beach
Tell me how does it feel
When your heart grows cold
(grows cold, grows cold, grows cold)

Pandora is playing it again... :)

The Rabbi's Hat (Louis Finkelstein)

One very windy day, a rabbi was on his way to the sheitble. Suddenly a strong gust of wind blew his shtreimel (fur hat) off his head. The rabbi ran after his hat but the wind was so strong it kept blowing his hat farther and farther away. He just couldn't catch up with it.

A young gentile man, witnessing this event

,

and being more fit than the rabbi, ran after the hat and caught it. The young gentile man handed the hat over to the rabbi.The rabbi was so pleased and grateful that he gave the man twenty dollars, put his hand on the man's head and blessed him. The young man was very excited about both the tip and the blessing.

The young gentile decided to take his new found wealth to the racetrack. He bet the entire $20 on the first race that he could. After the races the young man returned home and recounted his very exciting day at the races to his father.

“I arrived at the fifth race,” said the young man. “I looked at the racing program and saw that a horse by the name of 'Top Hat' was running. The odds on this horse were 100 to 1. It was the longest shot in the field.

”

“After saving the rabbi's hat, having received the rabbi's blessing, gotten the $20, and seeing 'Top Hat' in the fifth race, I thought this was a message from God. So, I bet the entire 20 dollars on Top Hat. An amazing thing happened. The horse that was the longest shot and who did not have the slightest chance to even show, came, in first by 5 lengths.”

“You must have made a fortune,”said the father.“Well yes, $2000. But wait, it gets better,” replied the son. “In the following race, I looked at the program. A horse by the name of 'Stetson' was running. The odds on the horse were 30 to 1'. Stetson being some kind of hat, and again thinking of the rabbi's blessing and his hat, I decided to bet all my winnings on thi

s horse.”

“

What happened?” asked the excited father. “Stetson came in like a rocket. Now I had $60,000!” “Are you telling me you brought home all this money?” asked his excited father. “No,” said the son. “I lost it all on the next race. There was a horse in this race named 'Chateau.' So I decided to bet all the money on it because the horse was the heavy favorite and the name also means hat in French. But the hor

se broke down and came in last.”

“

Hat in French is 'Chapeau' not 'Chateau' you moron,” said the father. “You lost all of the money because of your ignorance. Tell me, what horse won the race?” “It was a long shot from Japan named Yarmulke” answered the son.

First, the crazy part.  A California psychologist says all our phones and digital devices might actually be making people mentally ill “especially those who are prone to narcissism, for example, or to depression or obsessive-compulsive disorder.”  The NYTimes reviews Larry D. Rosen’s new book, “iDisorder: Understanding Our Obsession With Technology and Overcoming Its Hold on Us”.  Some nice tid-bits: “ 70 percent of those who report heavily using mobile devices experience “phantom vibration syndrome,” which is what happens when your pocket buzzes and there’s no phone in your pocket?”  That happens with me pretty regularly.  Also interesting: “heavy use of Facebook has been linked to mood swings among some teenagers? Researchers are calling this “Facebook depression.”’   I thought that was when you spotted the super-cute girl from high-school still looking super-cute on Facebook, 20 years later.

I had a feeling about that..
