People Keep Entering The Theatre In The Middle Of The Movie That Is Our Life And Then Think They Know What's Going On As If It's A Movie

So I'm watching a "Matlock" from way back in time and blueberry stains under the mat of some guy's car mean the Black guy didn't do it. Isn't that exactly it? Those of us in bad need of a person who can spend the time finding the blueberry stains under the mat and then showing the significance of this so that we can be set free know what I'm talking about. And what about if the guy had thrown away the mat so that no one could ever find it? It boggles the mind - the very thought should send some form of fear into the hearts of all decent people. It HAPPENS.

I don't expect anyone to do the real due diligence needed to find out what entitles my following conjecture. Many would think it pointless for me to even express this conjecture. So what if it might actually be true, what's the point, if it might not be? Where does it leave me, if those a million miles from ever researching me, or ever knowing the true upshots of such research, are left with a poor impression of my grasp of reality? Well, for one thing, it might be true, I do not know, but what I do know is that it is considerably more likely than it would seem to many. And it might regard The Beatles. And if I don't say it, who will?

I know that a story I wrote in 1965, "Endless Voyage," had a major influence on certain Beatles songs, and led to a continuing interest in me by the ex-Beatles over the years, not dying in the past, but instead including even very recent actions by Paul McCartney. And if the following conjecture should prove to be true, should it be that Mr. McCartney must never see the day that it all became apparent enough to me to actually put it down on paper?

I SEEM TO REMEMBER
On my way to work today, Kiefer Sutherland, whom I've occasionally seen and whose work (and whose father's work) has occasionally been influenced by me, drove by me. Reasonably certain it was he.

Later today, when I saw last night's Letterman, which I had recorded, I started to have a Kiefer - Sutherland - in - the - movie -"Dark City" moment. I am referring to how, in "Dark City", the character he plays enters the memory of another character, so that the other character sees his own entire life from early childhood on as one in which Sutherland made recurring appearances, moments that connect to each other, for the purpose of mentoring him, all towards preparation for the single moment when he would need to be equal to defeating the bad guys in the present.

Way back in the last paragraph I told you that something might have happened on Letterman last night. It was when Letterman said, "Pretty boy Clooney", in reference to George Clooney. I once owned a parakeet named "Pretty Boy". And when Bruce Willis was on Letterman two days earlier (Monday's show), between commercials the Letterman announcer said something about parrots. This was a moment that stood out for me, as I saw it as possibly being in relation to something I describe in my March 13, 2009 blog (see page 92 of Vol. 1 of my blogs, posted at Archive.Org). There I connect something regarding Bruce Willis to something regarding a cockateel (a bird very similar to parrots and parakeets, as they are domesticated pet birds that sometimes perch on people's shoulders). Given the gravity of what I was connecting way back on March 13th, and given that Letterman and Willis sometimes do things in relation to me, together and individually, and given etc., looking at this as a possible inside-reference made for my benefit, by mentioning parrots on this particular night, did not strike me as out of the question. Add to that my "Pavlovian" response (has to do with dogs salivating, look it up) to "Pretty Boy" two days later.

PRETTY BOY AND STAYING CLOSE TO HOME
In 1965, when I was nine, I owned a green parakeet named Pretty Boy, as well as a blue parakeet named Polly. One day when Pretty Boy was out of the cage, he managed to escape from our house. He flew way, way high up above the trees, circling wildly, and it didn't seem that I would ever see Pretty Boy again. As I recall, though it is not a totally vivid recollection in every respect, we took the cage with Polly in it and brought it outside. Somehow, over about an hour that seemed like ten, we managed to get Pretty Boy back into the cage.

A fairly short time after this incident, a Beatles song came out called, "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)". Obviously "bird" was meant to be seen as a reference to a girl, and obviously people are generally familiar with the idea of birds flying away. However, there certainly have been times when people, especially people such as John Lennon, are known to have said things for more than one, two or three reasons.

A fairly short time after this, a Beatles song came out entitled, "And Your Bird Can Sing," about a green bird, a pet, the song including the idea of being brought down and awoken by the bird being broken.

The cover of the Beatles album containing "And Your Bird Can Sing," which was entitled "Yesterday And Today," depicted Paul McCartney inside an open steamer trunk. Not entirely unlike the idea of a person being caged/imprisoned, yet not sealed inside this "cage".

Many, many, many years later, on the album, "Double Fantasy," John Lennon does a song entitled, "Beautiful Boy," sure to cause a Pavlovian response in a person who once knew Pretty Boy. No Pretty Boy Floyd jokes, please, I already get that Pretty Boy is not a totally one-of-a-kind name - however, it is nevertheless relatively rare.

In the song, "Beautiful Boy," Lennon sings, "Out on the ocean, sailing away," with an intonation that lends itself to an emotion not dissimilar from someone whose bird is flying away.

Pretty Boy flying away, Beautiful Boy sailing away.

Among the million different levels to everything on "Double Fantasy," among the things that can be said about the album cover would be that it has John and Yoko outside their home, about to travel further from their home (waiting for a traffic light), yet still not too far from their home.

During the '90s, the three then-living Beatles took a work-in-progress song left behind by Lennon, "Free As A Bird", and created the first "Beatles" song in over 20 years.
