Rrava roves you rong time


on: September 26, 2005, 07:42:39 PM

Sorry if this is old news, first I've ever heard of it.  Stumbled into it through Wikipedia.

http://www.maydaymystery.org/mayday/

Basically:
Once a  year, either on May 1st or as close to May 1st as they could get, a full page ad was run in the University of Arizona paper.  This goes back to the early 80s and is still going on.  Apparently, no one paid much attention until this guy in about 97.  It seems to be some sort of game.  It is very mysterious. Ooooo.  Sweet.

(I put it here in Useless News because it seems appropriate for possibly outdated conspiracy theories and general weirdness.)

Check out the "recent developments" section.  The dude has received messages on his answering machine from people supposedly representing the game's creator(s).  Suitably cryptic stuff like "You may ask any two questions you wish, and they will be answered."

My first question would be, "Why?"

I'm betting it's a whacky "Legalization of Marijuana" lobby then. That's how I'd reconstruct society.

How?  Exactly as much marijuana would be smoked then as it is now, and a few more people would not be in jail.  I guess its an arguable point that that would be an improvement, but it hardly reconstructs society. 

All life begins with Nu and ends with Nu.  This is the truth!  This is my belief! At least for now...

I think he was being facetious.

But it's hard to tell without the teal.

He might seriously believe that legalizing a drug that relaxes people and makes them lazy(er) would unleash a new age of enlightenment on the nation.

A Henpecked Husband's Complaint

Care away, away, away -
Care away for evermore!

All that I may swynk or swet,
My wife it wyll both drynk and ete;
And I sey ought she wyl me bete -
Carfull ys my hart therfor!

If I sey ought of hyr but good,
She loke on me as she war wod,
And wyll me clought abought the hod -
Carfull ys my hart therfor!

If she wyll to the gud ale ryd,
Me must trot all be hyr syd;
And whan she drynk I must abyd -
Carfull ys my hart therfor!

If I say, "It shal be thus,"
She sey, "Thou lyyst, charll, iwous!
Wenest thou to overcome me thus?"
Carfull ys my hart therfor!

Yf ony man have such a wyfe to lede,
He schal know how judicare cam in the cred;
Of hys penans God do hym med!
Carfull ys my hart therfor!

Ah I feel better now.  Den away.

My cousin PJ gets crazy just as much as he can
A real party reptile for a northern man
He’s dressed like a republican
He thinks conservative
But he drives faster than I ever did
He’s into nuclear power and insider deals
He has a scene with baby oil and heels
He’s my favorite politician
When he comes on weird
Says I’m not fit for this office let’s get out of here
My, my, loves his ma and apple pie
Well, well, he’s the party’s favorite guy
I hope you like it
You know I’m going to take good care of you
I hope you like it
I hope next time you bring your friends with you
He’s a drinkin’, huntin’, shootin’, fishin’ son of a gun
He knows a surgeon’s gonna keep his wife young
Got industrial kickbacks in an offshore bank
Knows who to stand on and he knows how to thank
I hope you like it
You know I’m going to take good care of you
I hope you like it
I hope next time you bring your friends with you
My, my, loves his ma and apple pie
Well, well, he’s the party’s favorite guy
He likes to come take me for a night with the boys
He talks about the NRA and their toys
Got an automatic rifle in his pick up truck
He drives me home when he’s in no state to walk
My, my, loves his ma and apple pie
Well, well, he’s the party’s favorite guy
I hope you like it
You know I’m going to take good care of you
I hope you like it
I hope next time you bring your friends with you
I hope you like it
Love it, like it
I hope you like it
Love it, like it
