Introduction to this weeks page
I am hit by worldly matters and have not posted much this week, but at least I managed to get my Phill page ready, a page that has taken a lot of time researching and thinking out another riddle from the mysterious person that Phill and his friends are communicating with.
Here is the message if you like to try to solve it:
Elyr
Come, on tell me the answer
.
Coming down fast
I got blisters on my fingers!
Get to the bottom
And I stop and I turn
Come, on tell me the answer
,-
But do you, don't you want me to make you?
.
I'm miles above you
Go for a ride
Coming down fast, but don't let me break you
Cause here she comes
And i get to the bottom and i see you again
If not here's the song.
Happy reading.

The comic is, like all my digital artworks, made exclusively with open source software:
Diapers not nappies?
The plot thickens.
I hadn't thought of that, but i guess I will substitute the words - the privilege of not having it printed is that it is always a work in progress. 100% upvote for the help.
No worries, I mean I'm an American and we do say diapers, but when I'm in the UK nappies, so I'm not really an authority, but I think that's correct :)
I try to use British English and US English so it fits the characters talking. My youngest brother helps me out, as do you and others. Greatly appreciated.
That song has some history
Indeed! Must have been a strange feeling for the Beatles when this song with the silly text became part of ritual mass psychogenic hysteria and murder. Actually I didn't know the meaning of the word, Helter Skelter, until I was doing research for this page and I read that the crazy Californian hippies around Mason probably didn't either. So to me the word and the lyrics always had a strange and ominous feel to it. After realising that it is just a slide from an amusement park it all makes much better sense.
Out of context lines like, I'm coming down fast, but don't let me break you - I'm coming down fast, but I'm miles above you are pretty mysterious and not really like the typical soft The Beatles love song.
I rode those slides as a kid. It is a powerful song that is open to interpretation. The Beatles really were ahead of their time
Spoiler Alert
Lennon says: "on the boring bit in'it?" right? Hehe.
