    Reminds me of Cooder's song:

    Well, if things could talk then Im sure youd hear
    A lot of things to make you cry my dear
    Aint you glad [aint you glad]
    Oh, aint you glad [aint you glad]
    Aint you glad [glad]
    Glad that things dont talk

    Now, if shoes could tell where theyve been
    When you say youve been visiting a friend
    Aint you glad [aint you glad]
    He-he-hey, aint you glad [aint you glad]
    But aint you glad [glad]
    Glad that shoes dont talk

    Now, if doors could tell whos turned the knob
    When hes away out on his job
    If cars could tell whos been inside
    And whos been taking you out for a ride
    Aint you glad [aint you glad]
    Oh, aint you glad [aint you glad]
    But aint you glad [glad]
    Glad that cars dont talk

    In a world of trouble Id be
    If things ever told on me
    My whole life would be through
    cause Im guilty, how about you ?
    If things ever talk that way
    Aint no telling what they might say
    Aint you glad [aint you glad]
    Oh, aint you glad [aint you glad]
    Aint you glad [glad]
    Glad that things dont talk

    Nice. I love to easedrop on unsuspecting victims; like you said, you hear the most interesting things. I think easedropping and sketching in public go hand in hand.

    I love all your stuff willie
    such a great and unique take on the subject
    I love the snippets you can overhear
    orphaned phrases drifting through space
