Modern day version


Joe Hill

Born 10 October 1879

Murdered in Utah 19 November 1915



I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night,

Alive as you and me.

Says I "But Joe, you're 90 years dead"



"I never died" said he,

"I never died" said he.



"In Salt Lake, Joe," says I to him,

him standing by my bed,

"They framed you on a murder charge,"



Says Joe, "But I ain't dead,"

Says Joe, "But I ain't dead."



"But your unions killed US jobs,

Can you see that now" says I.



"Takes a union to kill US jobs

Says Joe "but I didn't die"

Says Joe "but I didn't die"



And standing there as big as life

and smiling with his eyes.

Says Joe "Yes I see that now

We killed the jobs

We killed the jobs



From San Diego up to Maine,

in every manufacturing plant

jobs are going overseas

thanks to the unions, Joe

thanks to the unions, Joe



I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night,

alive as you and me.

Says I "But Joe, you're 90 years dead"



We killed the jobs, says he

We killed the jobs, I now see.

You might want to throw corporate greed into the mix. Around here the
CEO's get a much higher percentage raise than the hapless union workers.

Wow! Now I have to start over on a bit of base64Binary encoding I was
struggling with...


Harry, how is the number 45 (base 10) represented in base 64?

Why, John, you have a hot piece of code?
Which Base64 have you in mind? Does NDU= work for you?

Yes, Gene, I am.
