I get the impression that one of these is true about Tom.
1. He’s on meth.
2. He’s on crack.
If a caller cannot speak clearly and rationally, if he has to speak very rapidly and frantically, then don’t accept his calls. Don’t inflict him on us.
A caller like Tom doesn’t attract listeners; he drives them away.
Suggestion. Instead of playing “Yesterday”, play “Yesterday, When I Was Young” (sung by Roy Clark).
“Yesterday” only laments a lost love; the other song also laments lost dreams, years, and friends.
“The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned
I always built, alas, on weak and shifting sand.”
“I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out;
I never stopped to think what life was all about.”
“The game of love I played with arrogance and pride,
And every flame I lit too quickly, quickly died;
The friends I made all seemed somehow to drift away,
And only I am left on stage to end the play.”
“As I have explained, the introduction of an income tax resurrected a form of slavery as it gave government ownership rights in our labor. The definition of a free person is a person who owns his own labor. Today people subject to an income tax are in the same position as medieval serfs who owed part of their labor to feudal lords.”
Many say that the 16th amendment was never lawfully ratified.
“Let us go back to 1909, when the American people were offered a plan for destroying nations that had been formulated again by a filthy degenerate named Mordechai, alias Karl Marx. Now it’s true that the promoters hired a few journalists, liberal professors, and other intellectual prostitutes, to prove conclusively that the proposed income tax could never under any circumstances exceed four per cent. on the income of millionaires and could never affect anyone else, for the obvious reason that no federal government could possibly spend so much money. But the point is that a majority of the American people — the inheritors of a free government based on the premise that government must be limited to essentials and must be tied down by the chains of a stringent constitution restraining the exercise of all powers except those deemed absolutely necessary for national defense — those American people believed that hogwash.” (Revilo P. Oliver; “What We Owe Our Parasites”)
