Well, there's an idiomatic expression that didn't travel well across
the Pacific! :) From your misspelling of "ass," I'm assuming that
you're Austrian, so I guess I'll have to cut you some slack.
Nonetheless, the expression you're thinking of is "cat's pyjamas," as
in "I think your theory is the cat's pyjamas."
To which I can only reply, "Thank you." I think there's something to
the theory, but maybe other true Stone Rose's fans can help fill in
the blanks. I've only been listening to them for a few years now.
