Wake up, little Susie

Last night, two songs popped into my head. The first, the Pomplamoose rendition of "It's The End Of The World As We Know It," I posted; the second, I didn't, because I couldn't see its relevance: "Dear Prudence" as performed by Siouxsie and the Banshees.

This morning, I was reading a Taiwanese magazine for students of English and my attention was drawn to a full-page advertisement, all in Chinese except for a single English word that jumped out at me: Suzy.

At that exact moment, my phone informed me that I had just received an email, and I checked it:

Dear William,

Shortly after reading your post today, I was listening to CCR on youtube and the second song that came up was Suzie Q.  I don't know how it fits in with the other synchronicities, but maybe it's relevant.

Is this an attempt by the synchronicity fairies to make me take Q seriously, something I have never done before? Or does the name Suzie/Suzy/Siouxsie have some specific relevance?

I thought of this.

Slow Joe is Biden, of course. When I first started thinking about Fox in Socks, I noticed that Sue and Crow suggest the Sioux and the Crow, two closely related American Indian tribes. This of course ties in with Siouxsie and the Banshees.

And then I thought of the Everly Brothers song that gives this post its title. I had been predicting before that Trump's victory would be finalized by January 10, but obviously that didn't happen.

Well, I told your mama that
You'd be in by ten
Well, Susie, baby
Looks like we goofed again

But Susie still goes home, of course, just not on schedule.
