HOUSE PAINTER TURNS TERRORISM INTO PICK-UP LINE
HOUSE PAINTER TURNS TERRORISM INTO PICK-UP LINE
SANTA FE, N.M. (Wireless Flash) Ever since September 11, a new phrase has entered the lexicon: We need to continue to do [this or that] or were letting the terrorists win. So far, the phrase has been used to justify everything from riding subways to getting your nails done, and that annoys a house painter in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Jim Terr thinks the anti-terrorist excuse works better as a pick-up line than a political belief system, and has put the phrase into a love song he wrote called Dont Let The Terrorists Win. Some of the lyrics include, Come live with me in sin/ Dont let the terrorists win. Terr thinks the song will become a popular pick-up line a la Whats your sign? but warns that anyone who uses such a stupid pick-up line ...deserves what they get.
