Part II Begins with "Syd's Theme", the four note (Dah DAH dah DAH...) riff that is repeated throughout this part of the song.
Part III Rick's synth horn solo.
Part IV Vocal section.
Part V Sax solo.
Part VI Odd-sounding synth, then goes into some decent lap steel by Gilmour.
Part VII Second vocal section.
Part VIII Jazzy synths.
Part IX Closing funeral dirge-like synth horn solo.
Evan: RATE Shine on You Crazy Diamond plz

You: ok, i sent this e-mail to my ex. Long story short, she was making her arrangements to move out and i think had gone out to her sisters, anyway she comes homes and demands that i give her 2,150 dollars SO i LOL of course, guess what she says. "If you DO NOT GIVE ME THAT AMOUNT OF CASH, I WILL TAKE YOUR CARS AND SELL THEM". YUp, i had my cars under her name , so taht night i was eating a juicy burger and when i heard those words i lost my appetite LITERALLY. Anyway one car was worth 10 grand (prelude) which i bought in CASH, REALLY low miles 40k on the ODO. lemme stop rambling
here's the Email

I've been thinking lately why i should get back together with you becky. I asked myself what do i miss most about you? and the only thing i could think of is that you were humble, but i was wrong after you said you would take my car or cars and sell 'em if i didn't give a certain amount of money and that right there sealed your fate with us. WOW i said to myself, You were upset YES but you would go that far, and be a SNAKE, DECEITFULL,. SHAME ON YOU REBECCA, i know women use their emotions when they get upset but you took it too far. I mean i have my faults (which u never seem to admit and if you do say you have faults, i don't think you think and realize your faults). I mean we lived together and yes you wanted LOVE, in my world i DO NOT HOW TO SHOW LOVE, i never HAD A MOTHER and a FATEHR when he was there he himself seems like he was LOST. But i'm sure he loved me but he didn't know how to show it. ANyway were done rebecca, i regret meeting you, don't write me, don't call (unless it involves ava) don't call to say happy b-day, if i die let me die alone, if you see me in the streets see me as a stranger, dont' call to say merry xmas, or happy new year, I DO NOT WANT TO BE NEAR YOU, I DO NOT WANT TO LOOK AT YOU, I FEEL ANGER WHEN I SEE YOU, HATE is a STRONG WORD and taht's how i feel towards you. I'm ASHAMED to call you the MOTHER of my CHILD, I REGRET HAVING A BABY WITH YOU. As long as i live i will trust no WOMAN because of you, I WILL HOLD THIS PAIN AND ANGER as long as i live, it's all i know, and i will use it as my defense in LIFE.

Also do what you do BEST LET you GIRLFRIENDS READ THIS AND FURTHER BASH ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO FLAWS, YOUR A GOOD PERSON

ME: THATS RIGHT! SHAME ON YOU REBECCA!

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
