I'm Doomed
Ladies, Gentlemen, Designated Others..
I have just surfaced from listening to the entire Metallica S&M album. The one recorded live in concert with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. At ear-bleeding, brain-cell killing levels. All two hours and more. From The Ecstacy of Gold to Battery.
What was I singing as I got up from the couch?
"Another postcard with chimpanzees.. And every one is addressed to me...."
Aiiiieeee!!! I am one of those people who is susceptable to songworms, and Another Postcard by Barenaked Ladies has the potential to knock It's A Small World After All out of the number 1 spot as the most insidious song of all time! My Ghod, had we had this song in 1989 when we were trying to get Manuel Noriega out of the Papal Nuncio in Panama? 24 hours of Another Postcard would have had him crawling out begging to implicate the entire Columbian cocaine cartel! This may be the solution to suicide bombers. Broadcast Another Postcard over the Hamas and Jihad controlled areas, and bombers will blow themsevles up as soon as they are armed!
Another Postcard could be the key to Word Peace! How can you fight a war if both armies are pounding their heads into trees and walls screaming "make it stop!" An alternative to capital punishment thart might really be a deterant! Life imprisionment in a cell that plays Another Postcard every hour. Can you imagine the space race? Just mention that no broadcast of Another Postcard has yet to reach the nearest stars, and we will have FTL drives in a month and the Exodus will begin! Screw the core explosion, we're fleeing Another Postcard! (There's a story there, us stopping to help poor alien races, or at least smash any sort of radio astronomy they might posess.)
On Earth, the only one left will be the deaf and those God-like few who don't get music at all. The deaf will inherit the Earth.
I'm learning ASL now.
"every one is, every one is, every one is addressed to me...." Damn!

With that in mind, I remind you of this Trav filk (http://lists.travellerrpg.com/pipermail/tml/2001-August/126788.html) I posted to the TML a while back. It may be an evil songworm in its own right, but at least it isn't your current affliction....
