DOWNSIDE UP, UPSIDE DOWN

awhile back i downloaded a song and on DC it was called Wild Honey by U2. I'm a fan of U2 so that's probably why I downloaded it. Recently it has become one of my fav songs. Today I foudn out this song is called Downside Up and it is by Peter Gabriel!
These are the lyrics, I hope you enjoy it as much as me :)

I looked up at the tallest building
Felt it falling down
I could feel my balance shifting
Everything was moving around
These streets so fixed and solid
A shimmering haze
And everything that I relied on disappeared

Downside up, upside down
Take my weight from the ground
Falling deep in the sky
Slipping in the unknown
All the strangers look like family
All the family looks so strange
The only constant I am sure of
Is this accelerating rate of change

Downside up, upside down
Take my weight off the ground
Falling deep in the sky
Slipping in the unknown

I stand here
Watch you spinning
Until I am drawn in
A centripetal force
You pull me in

Pull me in
Pull me in
Pull me in
Pull me in
Pull me in

ovo ovo ovo
ovo ovo ovo
ovo ovo ovo

ovo ovo ovo
ovo ovo ovo
ovo ovo ovo

Downside up
Upside down
Take my weight off the ground
Falling deep in the sky
Slipping into the unknown

THE CASE OF THE MISSING GARLIC FINGERS:

Everyone knows that a late night study session calls for some greasy foods. So, on Thursday April 15th, two keen students ordered some garlic fingers to help get them through the greulling hours of studying ahead of them. Figuring they were quite hungry and had a lot of studying left to do, they ordered a large. Alas, there was too many greasy garlic fingers for the two of them to finish that night. They would be saved for the next afternoon (perhaps a post-exam snack). So, after many hardcore hours of studying, the garlic fingers were put in the fridge and the 2 students went to sleep.

The next morning upon awakening the two eager students went to get the garlic fingers from the fridge and were taken aback. They were surprised, shocked and appalled. The garlic fingers were gone!! Not knowing what else to do, the two students went back to the room, sad and hungry.

If anyone happens to know anything concerning the whereabouts of the said garlic fingers they can report it on www.p-dawg.blogspot.com or on the potato monologues. (2$ reward for box containing garlic fingers - no questions asked)
