Today’s definition of irony.

October 29th, 2004

This morning I was listening to Soul Coughing’s album Ruby Vroom. The song was Is Chicago, Is Not Chicago. The opening line is “A man drives a plane, into the Chrysler building.” The rest of the album is peppered with songs that include “Bus to Beezlebub” and “Blue-eyed Devil”. But I digress.

As the Chicago song is playing, there is a knock on my door and I see two well dressed ladies through the peep hole. I open the door and one woman says,”I am sure that you are aware of all of the war and terrorism going on in the world today. Did you know that the bible talks about the same kind of events?” Then she wants to read scriptures to me. I AM LISTENING TO SONGS ABOUT SATAN AND TERRORISM and a woman comes to my door to tell me about the bible and TERRORISM. I just thought it was funny.
