Maybe a reference to Matthew 12:36-37, which he used for the AquaChat message? Or does he mean the previous message on the site with the Phantom lines?

Quote:

Some quickie searches didn't pull up this line anywhere, hmm. Could "the path" be referring to whatever URL the chat will be going on in? Though even if the path is found, finding salvation from the Prof isn't necessarily all that appealing!

I'm gonna have to pick my brain on this one. There used to be one of those hand-clapping rhyming songs that had that in it. Or maybe it was a jump rope song. It wasn't the Henry song that phensley thought of though. I used to sing it as a kid...

*EDIT*

I found this...

Quote:
The Blue Bird Song

Way down yonder and not far away.

A blue jay died of a whopping cough.

Well, he whooped and he whooped and he whooped all day.

He whooped his head and he scared right off.

Second verse, same as the first.

A whole lot louder and a whole lot worse....

Third verse, same as the first. A whole lot louder and a whole lot worse....


but that's not the one I was thinking of. Also, the Dreidel song in South Park is supposedly to the tune of a song by that title.

"I'm Henry The Eighth I Am" by Herman's Hermits

I'm Henry the eighth I am
Henry the eighth I am, I am
I got married to the widow next door
She's been married seven times before
And every one was an Henry (Henry)
She wouldn't have a Willy or a Sam (no Sam)
I'm her eighth old man, I'm Henry
Henry the eighth I am

Second verse, same as the first

I'm Henry the eighth I am
Henry the eighth I am, I am
I got married to the widow next door

after consulting with my sister, we've decided that "Second verse, same as the first" was used in a bunch of jump rope and hand clapping songs when we were young. I think kids my age just stole the phrase (probably from the henry song above) and used it as a transitional phrase in the song. So not much help here, sorry.

I think he's just saying that we have to solve it the same way as 1981 (the first)......because we never did actually "do it". Very Happy
A way of saying "do over"?

If he still wants us to find the path based on the Angel of Music/Music of the Night stuff, I am fresh out of ideas. Maybe there is a clue with the new quotes, but I haven't worked it enough. The question is, do we still try to find the "solution" to the last broadcast and hopes it leads us to the next one, or should we try something different? Or should we even bother since he seems to just give us the answers if we dont come up with anything? I felt strangely let down with the link to the broadcast appeared on his website for a brief moment. He gives us all these warnings about how not to let Tobi on his trail, yet he gives Tobi and Marcus et al access to his broadcast by putting it up on his home page! A message on his Grendel group would seem a bit more secure since he invited each of those members to join (although there is the possiblity of one or more moles in the group). I get the feeling the professor is making up (and changing) the rules of his little game as he goes.

Well with the "second verse same as the first" I tried taking the original two lines:

Come to me Angel of Music!
Listen to the Music of the Night!

And deleting the dupes....was left with COMMA...which doesn't work (hey I'm tryin'...lol)
