Otis Doss III asked Jeff Strand:

How did you come up with the song "Twister" for Jason's favorite song? When I read that, I had to ask my wife if she'd heard of the song. The name sounded familiar, but I just couldn’t remember it. When it comes to music, she is pretty much all oldies, 50’s, 60’s, and some 70’s. She definitely knew the song, and it being somewhat esoteric, she was curious to how you knew and chose that one.

Jeff Strand Either I'm very confused, or you mean "Timothy" by The Buoys. I can't remember when I first heard the song (long after it came out) but it immediately became an all-time favorite. Catchy tune, and if you're only half-listening you can miss that it is unmistakably a song about cannibalism. I picked it because people familiar with the song would get a kick out of the reference, and hopefully people unfamiliar with it would check it out.
