Aħna mixtrija tagħna ewwel (u biss) "luxury" car back when hurricane Floyd nailed the east coast of the U.S. We got a LOT of rain here in New Jersey and diversi jiem għadda before life returned to normal. Just before Floyd struck, aħna għamlet offerta għal Volvo użati 850 GL u wara Floyd laqat, saq dar.

It was our first car with a CD player. Like most new car owners, aħna marru CD crazy ftit, revived our dormant CD collection and went on long drives just to listen to CD’s in the car. Like all fads, this passed for us and we ended listening to the same CD over and over again. Fil-każ tagħna, kien Ġesù Kristu Superstar.

Wieħed mill- (ħafna) biċċiet brillanti f'dak blat opra hija kantata minn-tipi reliġjużi istabbiliment, mmexxija mill Caiaphas, the "High Priest". They sing their way into deciding how to handle the "Jesus problem" and Caiaphas directs them to the conclusion that "Jesus must die". The refrain on the song is "Just must die, għandu die, għandu die, this Jesus must die". You hear that refrain a lot in that piece.

Fil-ħin, my son was about three years old. You can probably see where this is going.

I came home from work one day and my son is in the living room playing with toys and humming to himself. I’m taking off my jacket, tfittex permezz tal-posta u kollha walk-in-the-bieb tas-soltu tiegħi għalf u I f'daqqa jirrealizzaw li hu biss qal, mhux verament kant: "Jesus must die, għandu die, must die." I was mortified. I could just see him doing that while on one of his baby play dates at a friend’s house — probabbilment l-aħħar data play ma 'dak ħabib baby.

Aħna jinġibed li CD mill-Volvo wara li 🙂
