Well, @Mr. Kite, I have to confess that I prefer the more acoustic, slightly jazzier sound of Harrison’s 1979 solo version. As for Scylla or Charybdis you make me choose between a six-headed monster who, when ships pass, swallows one sailor for each head, and an enormous whirlpool that threatens to swallow the entire ship. Instructed by Circe, Odysseus held his course tight against the cliffs of Scylla’s lair –but lost six sailors. I’d do the same I guess. PS: I have vanished in the air at least twice in my life, and disappeared from the face of earth for everybody but three or four people…

 

Question: Harry Potter for children, Twilight for teenagers, or ancient myths for both –and the benefits of a classical education?

I got a feeling that was your choice, but I was referring to the Police reference(s), and Greek myth question. I like Harrison’s too, just like the original better, before it was remixed in the 80’s and before he redid it.

Normally email as i hate talking on the phone. Emails you can ignore until you have the desire, want and need to get around to however phone calls are good if its important and straight to the point, i have zero interest in small talk.

 

Hospital food or airline food?

Career ’cause it sounds more impressive (I have a job)

Zebra or mule?

Zebras. Mules get detained at airports and spend time in prison.

 

Family dogs (like Golden Retrievers) or mean mother–f$%& dogs like Pitt Bulls?

Blinking ones, because I once stared with fascination at randomly blinking ones on my sister’s tree for a minute or so 20 years ago, trying to determine the sequence of blinks (we’d been smoking “mistletoe”, lol)

 

Strobe light or lava lamp?
