Comfortably Numb? Hmmmmmm, is he/she/it still around? Does he/she/it still care? Did he/she/it ever really care?

Re: "... pigs on the wing" ??

Some flying pig references from history and literature:

Pigs flie in the ayre with their tails forward...
A SHORTE DICTIONARIE FOR YOUNGE BEGYNNERS, (1553).John Withals

Pigs might fly, but they are very unlikely birds.
Popular euphemism, 1620's.

"The time has come," the Walrus said, "To talk of many things: Of shoes and ships and sealing wax, Of cabbages and kings, And why the sea is boiling hot, And whether pigs have wings." THROUGH THE LOOKING-GLASS, (1872).
Lewis Carroll (1832 – 1898), English writer, mathematician.

The first pig to fly in an aeroplane was taken up for a joyride in a biplane by Lord Brabazon, holder of the first pilot license in Britain.
"The TIMES", London, (1909).

"I have myself a poetical enthusiasm for pigs, and the paradise of my fancy is one where pigs have wings. But it is only men, especially wise men, who discuss whether pigs can fly; we have no particular proof that pigs ever discuss it."
FANCIES VERSUS FACTS, (1923). G.K. Chesterton, (1874 – 1936), British author and critic.

"Just about as much right," said the Duchess, "as pigs have to fly."
ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND. Lewis Carroll (1832 – 1898), English writer, mathematician.
