CHALLENGE

Alright, here's the dish! - it has come to my attention that today is the day before New Year's Eve. It has also come to my attention that this day does not have a name. This needs to be remedied! I challenge anyone who's willing to participate to help come up with an appropriate name for today!

Contenders so far are:
Antenovannual day

PLUR!

Misheard Lyrics

I've never been a huge Avenged Sevenfold fan - in fact, my first exposure to them was playing "Beast and the Harlot" on Guitar Hero II.

Apparently my hearing isn't that great, because for several months (until I actually looked up the lyrics), I was grossly misinterpreting the chorus. Here's what I thought I was hearing:

"She's a fey and peaceful dreamer
She's everything she wants to be
But only when she's in her dreams, and when the morning comes, and she wakes to the daylight
All she was will fall beside the way."

Here is the actual chorus:

"She's a dwelling place for demons.
She's a cage for every unclean spirit,
every filthy burden, and makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great."

Curious isn't it? The real chorus makes more sense, but I still almost like mine better...

PLUR!

Veritas

It seems that, especially over the past 5 years, I've increasingly found that to establish the truth of a thing, one doesn't need to believe it....but merely to convince other people of it.

This is growing a mite unsettling.
