Today's entry is a sort of a riddle... your job is to guess which two lines of the following song lyrics are the the real inspiration behind today's entry... JD is excluded from guessing on this one...
by The Police
Just a castaway
I am lost at sea oh
Another lonely day
No one here but me oh
More loneliness
Than any man could bear
Rescue me before I
Fall into despair oh
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
A year has passed
Since I wrote my note
I should have known it
Right from the start
Only hope
Can keep me together
Love can mend your life but
Love can break your heart
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
Woke up this morning
Can't beleive what I saw
A hundred-million bottles
Washed upon my shore oh
Seems I'm not alone
In being alone
A hundred-million castaways
Looking for a home
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
Sending out an SOS
Sending out an SOS....
To me, it's between "A year has passed Since I wrote my note," although that's not quite write since you blogged yesterday, and "Woke up this morning Can't believe what I saw." So what did you see? :-)

Posted by: Mom at June 9, 2005 03:15 PMLove can mend your life but
Love can break your heart?
Well, I won't drag this out too long... Mom was right (or... write :-) when she guessed, "a year has passed since I wrote my note"-- with my "note" being my very first entry. Yes, Jethro's World has been going for a full year now... can you believe it?
I also think the whole song could be a kind of theme song for the whole weblogging world...

Posted by: Mom at June 11, 2005 12:05 PMMy Guess was right! I wish I would have looked at your entry sooner.
