Micky... you have lived a good life... I will grant you whatever you wish in Heaven. A lifetime supply of Winstons.. that 6' blond with large mammary glands you always speak of... even perhaps... James LaBrie losing his voice... But you have to answer me one question.... 'what is your favorite prog rock epic over 10 minutes'

*Micky speaks in his trademark mumbling monotone*

Oh wow... you know God...  hmmmm..   *sound of thunder and lighting crashes upon Micky*

'MIcky...  I have my eye on you for some time...   nice to see you join us here.   I saw your post about not having a sin you didn't like while checking out the reviews on the latest DT album. I have wanted to meet you for some time. Oh you are going to BURN for that SFaM review...   and I plan on seeing you suffer.  Here in hell we have Dream Theater albums 24/7..  and the only channel we get on TV here in FauxNews.

*micky gasps*

NO!!!   say it is not so.   I'll do anything... ANYTHING.  SIlly me thought hell only a euphimism for life on Earth.

HAHAHA...  yes Micky... now you learn the answer to the question Man has always asked.  However it is forgotten that once I was once an Angel... the bringer of Light.. so I will give you a chance to escape eternal damnation.

an eternity of DT?   Yeah.. whatever you want...  I've been told I have a cute ass... it is yours...

No no no... I only want one thing Mick.   I need to know.. we all need to know... damnit.. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PROG ROCK EPIC OVER 10 MINUTES .. damnit man... SAY IT!!!!

alright...  my gig is up...  you win.  

If I had to choose one .. it would have to be...

Osanna - Oro Caldo...

*poof.. and Micky disappears in a ball of smoke... to where...  who knows..   then again.. who cares*
