Hey welcome! Am loving your screen name

I don't know if there's any connection to the song though?

you know, i tend to mix up people's names, so quite often i've called my boyfriends by my father's name and vice versa - i also mix up my boyfriend's and my cat's names, i tend to write it down to some sort of inherited brain flaw (my dad does it too, as did his dad) rather than an actual freudian slip. as long as i don't cry out my dad's name during sex, i feel quite safe..

I don't know about jungian slips, what would those be like..?

hmm.. calling out the name of a mythological archetype?

i kind of read "rat within the grain" as a metaphor for disease like the plague or something.. so yeah, not a very nice thing to say about someone..

^Yes I think you are right on the Jungian slip, Zeus

Yup, I mentioned that book a few months back as evidence that the word he was saying was "rat" (everyone else thought he was saying "wrapped within the grain"). Actually there were quite a few other places the phrase was used in a political context.

the number 9 is also associated with the Enron scandel...9 Crimes...that's reading too much into it though. Might as well throw in the Beatles' "Number 9" or the movie 9 Songs (2004) who female lead is names lisa
