I'm not born as an English speaker, so I don't really care about the lyrics when I'm having a catastrophe.

Niether am I. There are some albums I like to listen at certain times, occasions or circumstances, but that's quite different. I've never been superstitious about anything, and certainly not the music I like.

Why don't they have seat row 13 on planes - how many aircrashes are there where only one row of seats fell out? Is sitting in the back row the safest place to be because planes don't reverse into mountains? Why aren't planes made from the same material as the black box flight recorder? If flying is safer than crossing the road why don't we fly across the road? If jet fighters have ejector seats why don't they have them on jet airliners? Why don't aircraft have a huge paracute strapped to the fuselage? Or why don't they inflate the lifejackets and rafts with helium? Why do they tell you to adopt the 'crash' position, can't we adopt the 'bit of bump and gentle roll to a stop' survival position instead? |
And why do they ask you to put on that ridiculous seatbelt, as if that's going to save you from a plane crash  it's only so they will have it easier for identifying the corpses from the seat number they are tied to!

I never listen to Genesis when I'm scuba diving. It's the acoustics as well as the fear of the many Phil Collins fans amongst orcas.

I was nearly killed in a car accident a few years ago, driving on a road that, in the space of about 30 seconds, was completely covered in ice by a storm...I ended up sliding onto the area that divides two sides of a highway, crashed into trees at about 50 kms, they pierced through the windshield and front console area. The car was a total write off, the CD I was listening to at the time, somehow ended up behind my seat, about a billion scratches on it.
It was `The Byrds - Younger Than Yesterday', and I've still got that very same ruined CD....I don't know whether it's bad luck or good luck....Needless to say it's not in my new car anymore, and no accidents since! 
Oh, and I didn't get even a single scratch. The ambulance and polcie were in total disbelief. |
That's because you are a goddam superhero. :) so glad you were ok from that. :)

Hmmmm, methinks the God of Thunder is really the Lord of Lies - that cute avatar won't fool anyone for long lol! Or maybe Loki, the trickster God!
