I was reminded of a time I heard this song by Pink Floyd, I'm hearing right now on Pandora.
I was in a dentist's chair, shot up with Novocaine, waiting for the dentist to come in and work on my mouth.
What song comes on his sound system?
You got it.
"Comfortably Numb."
I pointed it out to the dentist, and he cracked up laughing.

When I turned the truck in and turned the engine off and removed the key.... Sympathy for the Devil came on the radio. My brother was a witness and said "if I didn't see it, I'd call you a liar".
A weird end to a weird trip from NOLA.

Oh, you said "funny", didn't you.

This big burly guy standing in front of a display case yelled across the store to his friend.
"Do you like pina colada?"
I was inspired to sing right back to him "Or a walk in the rain?"
My girlfriend laughed so hard that she cried.
Best one yet!

Now every time I even think of that part of the saga, that song comes into my mind - to the point where the scene in the movie seemed wrong without that background music!
