iPod iChing - Thar She Blows

It is a sticky friday and news are mixed...

So, we ask the Mighty iPod One: will RS Ophiuchi in fact become a type Ia supernova?

Whoosh goes the randomizer...
Whoosh.

• The Covering: Funky Kingston - Toots and the Maytals
• The Crossing: Walking Back - Cranberries
• The Crown: Learning our Long Vowels - Twin Sisters
• The Root: Three Little Birds - Bob Marley
• The Past: Minstrels - Claudio Arrau
• The Future: Scenes From Childhood: An Important Event - Schumann
• The Questioner: Ghost Town - Specials
• The House: The Long Way Around - Dixie Chicks
• The Inside: You Can Call me Al - Paul Simon
• The Outcome: Tank Park Salute - Billy Bragg

Hm. Somthing is happening, and heavy on the funk.
Al is Ia? Subtle is the iPod.
Questioner is worrying for the first time, though it is true, it is quiet around here.

The Outcome is spot on though. She's gonna blow! Future says it all...

As always, the Key as explained by Sean

Tank Park Salute

Kiss me goodnight and say my prayers
Leave the light on at the top of the stairs
Tell me the names of the stars up in the sky
A tree taps on the window pane
That feeling smothers me again
Daddy is it true that we all have to die

At the top of the stairs
Is darkness

I closed my eyes and when I looked
Your name was in the memorial book
and what had become of all the things we planned
I accepted the commiserations
Of all your friends and your relations
But there's some things I still don't understand

You were so tall
How could you fall?

Some photographs of a summer's day
A little boy's lifetime away
Is all I've left of everything we've done
Like a pale moon in a sunny sky
Death gazes down as I pass by
To remind me that I'm but my father's son

I offer up to you
This tribute
I offer up to you
This tank park salute
