Fireman Frenzy

The word I keep hearing regarding the new Fireman CD is "Inspired." In fact, the reaction has been so positive that there is some talk that Paul regrets having it released under the name Fireman. From the look of the Best Buy ad, this will not exactly be a mystery McCartney release.



Special recognition to the following websites for their excellent coverage of the Fireman release:
AbbeyRd Beatles News
Macca Report
Maccaspan
Macca-Central

Sunsol has struck again with another forwards-backwards video - Paul Is Dead Now. This video features some absolutely hilarious heard backwards lyrics. Click under "more info" to really appreciate this video. I must add shaggily how fun it would be if Iamaphoney would use these lyrics on one of his rewritten backwards Beatles songs.

AbbeyRd Beatles News reported that the bidding on White Album #0000005 is up to £14,000.00 (approximately US $20,704.60). The auction ends tomorrow.

After listening to the interview, it appears that it was the interviewer, and not Paul, who brought up "Carnival of Light." This means that this recent eruption is not much different from when it was brought up last year. However, there is much more publicity this time, with some papers even going as far as talking about Olivia Harrison's tough decision to release a track that her late husband previously vetoed.

In the same week that it has been widely reported that John Lennon sold his soul to the devil, the Vatican announced that they forgive John for his "Beatles are more popular than Jesus" remark. Here is a link to the Reuters story.

A video appeared last week under the radar. I don't see anything new visually, but the soundtrack seems original. I have no way of knowing if this comes from Iamaphoney or not. 020289 by iamaprophet.

Back to the Fireman, here is a parting quote from Paul, I think:

London, Nov 22 (PTI) The Beatles legend Sir Paul McCartney underwent an extraordinary transformation for his new album 'Electric Arguments' and pretended to be Gladys Jenkins during the recordings.
"We decided to go undercover, to do whatever we wanted. That way, when you go to the microphone, I don't think of it as going as Paul McCartney and it frees you up," he told In an interview to T4's Miquita Oliver.

"I'd say, 'Right, you're going to become Gladys Jenkins," he said.

"It was quite thrilling, that's how we approached Sgt. Pepper's. "It's like you're playing instead of working," the legendary singer was quoted as saying by Sun. PTI


The same story appeared in Gigwise.

Gladys?

MikeNL,

I am the Vietnam vet that spoke a few weeks ago. On Feb 28,1967 we were involved in a battle at Cam-Lo my squad became surrounded and we had to call for fire support from Carroll. I don't know if you were there then or you may have heard that we had to call the 175 rounds on our own position. The guys up at Carroll laid those four rounds right between us and the NVA, which was only a matter of 20 feet or so. Laying on the ground and hearing Carroll launch those 175’s knowing they were coming right at us makes me numb to this day. Having those shells rip through the trees and impact right in front of us was the most amazing, scary, bone chilling experience you could imagine. I guess the NVA figured we were crazy because the broke off from us.


We need to convince Tafultong to shell our position. The Zips are in the wires and it is the only way.

MikeNL says so! Don't question it!

None of you understand the videos. Iamaphoney is the messiah. He is in the water in his videos because it is a baptism. There will be 12 suitcases and there will be 12 disciples again. Why don't you understand this? The book of Revelations is true. He is telling you that he is making revelations happen now.

Whether there is any truth to PID or not, the likes of faulconandsnowjob do nothing to raise it's credibility. On the David Icke forum, for instance, various posters keep pointing out huge problems with the theory that there is just no getting around; faulcon usually ignores these problems, choosing instead to continually post the same tired old 'comparison' pics of Paul and 'Faul' as her irrefutable proof. There then follows exasperation and personal incredulity when she fails to convince the skeptics. And on it goes...

perhaps she is disciple # 4

Arguably, they all had a common Thelemic master.

I'm not sure if this has any bearing upon the PID mystery, however.

I'm not sure if Crowley and Joyce ever met face to face, but I would not be surprised if W.B. Yeats and Crowley did at some point, given their occultish proclivities.

Joyce did indeed meet with the elder Yeats at one point, so perhaps we can at least muster up a Kevin Bacon-y sort of link between Joyce and the old Beast.
