   Joe "No Collusion" Mahoney to All   
   Aimee Mann's (Open) Secret

   From: joemahoney1950@gmail.com   
      
   Me=y fellow fellaters of the florid fungus, many of you recall the surprise we   
   ID Theorist fans felt when we learned that Rush would feature a guest vocalist   
   on "Time Stand Still" from the Hold Your Fire album.     
      
   We didn't know a heckova lot about this Aimee Mann at the time.  But some of   
   my biggest buddies from Boston were well aware that Aimee Mann fronted a band   
   called Til Tuesday.  This  band consisted of transsexuals -- and Aimee herself   
   was no different.     
   Hence the "Mann."     
      
   Now, Til Tuesday is a reference to Holy Tuesday from the Bible -- from the   
   Holy Week, which precedes the commemmoration of the Death of Jesus.  It's (not   
   coincidentaqlly) also a reference to Tuesday, October 29 1929, when the stock   
   market collapsed on    
   Wall Street, sending Germany's economy into a tailspin, and allowing Hitler's   
   Heavenly Ascension.  Similarly, Tuesday is a special day for Trump and his   
   famous "16-Tweet Tuesday," when he blessed us with his divine intuitions.     
      
   So as we enjoy "Time Stand Still," and its special Manly guest, let's consider   
   Neil's beseeching the cessation of time -- or more accurately, his pleadings   
   for us to regress to a simpler time, the Time of Christ.  The Time of Hitler.    
   16-Tweet Tuesday.
