Very thought provoking...especially about the American Pie song!

Oddly enough, I had a dream back on the 4th with a reference to pies:

Scene change again, I end up in my home neighborhood where I grew up. I was preparing to host a party just two blocks away from the street lived on in a warehouse. At first, it felt like a boathouse but there was no body of water at this location. The interior really felt like I was on a boat. This is where I saw both my father and FIL. It was some kind of reunion with both our families. My father actually had a gift to give to my FIL…not sure what the occasion was. It was a strange-looking type of equipment to use for exercising. It was a U-shaped leather covered piece of metal that is used for flexing the arm muscles. My FIL demonstrated it for us to see how it worked. It was funny to hear my father mention Arnold Schwartzenegger as the celebrity who endorsed the product. He is actually my FIL’s favorite actor. My father and Arnold actually share the same exact birthday too! Then I came to the door as two women showed up. They were relatives on my husband’s side. One of them told me in the dream that they felt bad about not bringing dessert so I told them they had a choice of two nearby bakeries to pick up a pie. I pointed towards the street where I grew up to help them on their way. It was a strange feeling to know I was in my hometown hosting this party. I went back inside and caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. I noticed the outfit I wore: a black, shiny square-necked tank top with white clean-cut pants. Funny thing was it had a nautical flair to it. THAT WAS IT. END
Now to crunch some numbers:
My dad/Arnold: 7/30/47 - 7 and 3…add them TOTAL: 57=12= 3
FIL: 12/7/51 - 3 and 7…add them up TOTAL: 70= 7
WHAT?!! It looks like the numbers 3 and 7 are the ones to watch!

Other than that, I believe the American Pie theme started with Madonna last year since she covered the song as well.

Tim Tebow joining the NY Jets unfortunately named him the jester in the song


Helter skelter in a summer swelter
The birds flew off with a fallout shelter
Eight miles high and falling fast
It landed foul on the grass
The players tried for a forward pass
With the jester on the sidelines in a cast
Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
While sergeants played a marching tune
We all got up to dance
Oh, but we never got the chance
Cause the players tried to take the field
The marching band refused to yield
Do you recall what was revealed
The day the music died?

Thread: New York JETS = JESTer? (originally TITANS OF NEW YORK!)

The bldg in the I Pet Goat video that I referred to as the 'pie' with the 4 and 20 blackbirds too...^^seems to connect with the lyrics above^^
!

The marching band..."When the Saints Go Marching In"...?!








The anniversary of the 1959 plane crash that inspired the song will be a day to watch!
