The rest of the day: NJO.com, Springsteen forum
I watch the fools on NJO praise AbseconAnnie post after post, because
they think someone posted news about the new CD before me.
I act like it bothers me and the fools try to taunt me by posting, all
the while I'm laughing at them because they are so hungry to get a
decent release after all these years from their paragon.
I wait for this news to catch on to the other boards and spread, then
finally ............

An immediate BTX investigation begins, they start searching for other
songs or albums with that title(they find a Meatloaf album), then they
start searching through the Library of Congress to see if Bruce has a
copyright on those two titles yet.
I don't know where they find the time, because most of the time they
are over there praising the KING OF TRASHSTREETS, Chris Phillips, and
seeing who can get the furthest up his rear end,

I notice on Wikipedia someone has edited Bruce's info to include the
note at the bottom of his profile
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Springsteen
"In October of 2007, Springsteen is tentatively scheduled to release
his 15th studio recording and 25th overall. The new release has been
rumored to be a cross between his Tunnel Of Love and The Rising
releases. Amid early reports, the working title for the project is
"Dead Ringers" and another song title associated with the project is
"Sabres, Steel, and Spades".
People are so absorbed with posting ANY new info about Bruce first,
they just post it without ANY verification.

mvbigtuna posts a thread titles SABRES, STEEL, AND SPADES, where Bruce
got the idea:
It includes the story that he/she found on google about Chinese
migrant workers who were attacked. In it there is a line that says :
""The first group of about 50 gangsters came with SPADES - the second
with axes, STEEL pipes and SABRES," one worker told the newspaper. "
This is the exact story that I got the idea for this title from. I
remember seeing a story on the news about these Chinese migrant
workers about a month or two ago.
I was waiting to see how long before someone found the story.
here is a link to the story

shaggy
Not to be outdone by my fabricated story, shaggy adds to it with his
post that conflicts and confirms my original AbseconAnnie post all in
one shot.
He goes as far to fabricate an interview with Brenden OBrien where
OBrien gives 3 song titles, The titles he named were "The Blind Spot,"
"Taxi Cab Alley," and "One Dead Ringer."
Adding to the Dead Ringer build up and actually making it seem even
more legitimate because Bruce had already copyrighted The Blind Spot
in 1995, around the Tom Joad release.

always wanting to be the first to break news, the Greasylake gang had
to get the shaggy post.

Saw this over at SPL courtesy of shaggy........ and posts shaggy's

This was just an experiment of mine, a successful one.
I know 90% of you are going to say you never believed it, but you did,
you know it.
You spread the news, you told your fellow Bruce fans, some even copied
and pasted the info and spread it around so they could be the first to
post on the various boards.
I can't believe it got as far as Wikipedia, and the shaggy post/story
just topped it off for me.
I have zero connection with shaggy, but he added to the atory, and
added some validity,  and sucked more people in.
When the CD is released and it is titled or has a song title including
the phrase Dead Ringers,well, then you'll know my secret.
This is my story, and I'm sticking to it.
Farewell,
The one and only Postal68.
Oh yeah, horse face sucks.
p.s. Last night was going to be my last post but I got a call on my
cell phone from another guy saying that Burton Busk had to rub it in.
So, I figured I'd stay.

Ho letto rapidamente e qualche espressione non l'ho capita,ma mi ricorda 
molto uno scherzo che nel 2004 feci nel newsgroup dei fans di Ligabue.
Dissi che lavoravo nello studio di registrazione nel quale Ligabue 
registrava e che avevo avuto modo di sentire alcuni pezzi e il nuovo sound 
dell'album che stava preparando.Mi inventai 6 titoli fasulli (molto 
ligabuari,da parodia.Anche questo "dead ringers" mi sa di patacca) e dissi 
che stava usando nuovi strumenti per gli arrangiamenti,e che il sound era 
finalmente innovativo rispetto al passato (qui si doveva capire che era una 
minchiata!)
Abboccarono a decine come tonni,tanto che poi arrivò un messaggio 
"ufficiale" del management di Ligabue per smentire tutto quello che avevo 
inventato.Ma la gente continuava a credere a me e a chiedermi altri 
dettagli!
Isterismi collettivi!

 molto uno scherzo che nel 2004 feci nel newsgroup dei fans di Ligabue.
Oltre a questo, ti accomuna con Postal l'odio viscerale per Patty, il 
tasso di popolaritą all'interno dei rispettivi ng e una serie di 
opinioni piuttosto discutibili sul lavoro Bruce. Se non fosse per la 
lingua verrebbe il dubbio che si tratti della medesima persona.

Bhè grazie,non conosco di persona questo Postal,ma vedo che abbiamo alcuni 
pregi in comune! :)))
Non potevo d'altro canto pensare di essere l'unico "profeta" depositario 
della "verità" sulla faccia della terra,ce ne sono anche altri!!! :)))
