This is the most delightfully weird fact I think I have heard all day: ”I Will Always Love You” by Whitney Houston was Saddam Hussein’s 2002 campaign song.
“IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII WILLLLL ALLLWAYS LOOOOVVVVVE YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-OO-OO-OOOO*BOOM* *crash* *gunshots* “my leg!! agggg…” *sirens* -OOOOOOOH!”
have yourself a merry little christmas.
actually, come to think of it, have yourself the biggest, best, jolliest and most preposterously over-the-top Christmas you’ve ever had. Since when has America been a nation of self-restraint? Give cookies to everyone on your block! Buy your dog a swing set! Buy all of those amazing-looking new CDs you listen to in the Borders Music Section but never actually buy and probably won’t for at least a few more months. Careen down the street in a sparkling silver Corvette, blasting operatic arrangements of “The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don’t Be Late)”…
and then, when you have drained all the money from your funds, you can wander door to door, swishing your way through piles of delicate feathers of snow, romantically seeking chestnuts roasting on an open fire.
or maybe marshmallows…..
