Here is a blog with some songs played backwards. Many of the songs are pretty lame interpretations, but the Led Zeppelin one is kind of scary! I can't imagine that was purely accidental.
In other news, new housing sales were up 12% in March. This is the highest increase since 1993. It was completely unexpected and I bet it was caused by buyers fear that mortgage rates are going up. Most of the increase can be attributed to a 22% increase in the Midwest. Sales in the northeast actually fell 9%. I hope mortgage rates are still below 7% when I graduate. I doubt rates will still be below 6% by then. With a 30-year loan at 6%, each $100,000 borrowed generates a $600 payment. At 7%, it goes up to $665--over 10% higher from 1 point.
