It's early evening and I'm in the kitchen, cooking for my ever-hungry family. ChinchillaBoy comes running down the stairs with a mysterious look on his face.
"Coincidence? Or hidden message?" - he inquires.
"Say wha?"
"In Stairway To Heaven, four minutes and twenty seconds into the song, they sing "if there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now". Get it? 420? They are referring to drugs, Mom!"
"Wait, there's a what in your what? Write that down for me, willya?"
ChinchillaBoy writes it down.
"Wow, my English is nearly not good enough to get this. What's a hedgerow?"
"A hedge. Meaning grass. Get it?"
I scratch my head. We have a hedge and it looks nothing like grass. Is there something wrong with our hedge?
"Okay, what's a bustle?"
"It's a hole, like when someone's busting through?"
"So there's a hole in my hedge from someone busting through. So why should I be alarmed now? How's that a reference to drugs?"
"Oh, Mom." ChinchillaBoy rolls his eyes at my outdatedness. "It just is."
Happy New Year, by the by! Check out my new design - it's a New Year's present from a good friend of mine! The link to her site is on the sidebar - there have been technical difficulties, but it should be back up & running by the time you read this post.
