In all fairness, you guys never did figure out the hidden philosophical meaning of the foam creatures in the first thread. Let the debate continue! I'll bring the beans.

Dawn in Japan or dawn in Texas? or dawn in the park?

Dawn in the park
Where the Mach men meet
The machines are playing kill by numbers
Dawn in the park with a friend called Five...

Everybody, grab your FOAM PITCHFORKS!!

Hah. I actually for some reason thought this was a purposeful reconstruction of Burhanistan's post based on the recent debacle regarding Single-Link Posts, but alas no, just a normal double. My life is meaningless again.
