   Paul Is Dead Clue(s) You Actually Consid

   I never believed that Paul McCartney had actually died and been replaced; I   
   was never that stoned or stupid.  As a young kid, however, I was amused by the   
   possibility that the Beatles actually engineered some prank to this effect.   
      
   One of the items I considered was the rumor about the gibberish muttered by   
   John at the end of "I'm Only Sleeping."  The legend was that when this was   
   played backward, it stated:  "Paul is dead man, miss him, miss him."   
      
   I couldn't dismiss this possibility, because the utterance does sound weird   
   (of course, it's also classic Lennon); and I had no way to test it.   
      
   Today, it's fairly well-known that John states:  "Monseur, monseur, monseur,   
   how about another one?"  BTW, what did *that* mean?  Another take of the   
   song?  Another cigarette?  Or is it mere Lennon silliness?
