    New York City is Paul Simons biggest fan. New York City hates Christians. Christians who support the genocide of Palestinian children by Israel. Same people who live in New York City are same people committing genocide against their family the Palestinians over a birth right. Land. Arabs are the seed of Abaham and Hagar who was Sara's Egyptian slave girl. Sara was Abraham's wife. She was not able to give Abraham children so their God gave Abraham permission to seed Hagar with Ismael aka the Arabs. The Palestinians are Arab so in the hollywood movie The Kingdom the Saudi soldier says Shame on you. You know what they are doing to our brothers the Palestinians. America a stooge of Israel aka Camp David. New York City an extension of the Israelite bigot and partricidal maniac. Shame on on all Christendom too.

    I met my old lover on the street last night 어젯밤 길거리에서 우연히 옛 사랑을 만났지 She seemed so glad to see me,I just smiled 그녀는 반가워하는것 같았고 나는 그냥 웃었어 And we talked about some old times and we drank ourselves some beers 우리는 맥주를 마시며 옛 이야기를 나눴어 Still crazy after all these years, still crazy after all these years 여전히 미쳤지 세월은 가더라도 사랑은 남는다니, I'm not the kind of man who tends to socialize 난 사교적인 사람이 아니야 I seem to lean on old familiar ways 난 좀 구식인거 같아.... And I ain't no fool for love songs that whisper in my ears 그렇지만 귓가에 속삭이는 사랑의 노래에 빠지는 바보는 아니야 Four in the morning, crapped out, yawning, 오전 4시, 포기하고, 하품하고, longing my life away 긴 인생이 빨리 지나가기를 바라지 I never worry, why should I, it's all gonna fade 난 걱정 안해, 왜 해야 하는데? 모두가 다 사라져 버릴건데. Now I sit by my window And I watch the cars 지금 난 창가에 앉아 지나가는 차를 보고 있지 I fear I'll do some damage One fine day 이렇게 화창한 날에 누군가 손해를 입힐까두려워... But I would not be convicted By a jury of my peers 배심원인 내 친구들이 날 기소하진 않겠지

    Is the real Paul anything like this? He seems like a sweet and slightly neurotic guy. He looks very small and slight in here compared to how he usually looked to me, especially in the 60s, where it looked like he had a slightly square and stocky build, at least compare to Art. The guard not recognizing him was like the guard not recognizing that Jeremy Lin was an NBA player and thought he was a trainer.
