I was in the car this morning queueing to get just inside the “snow bound” city boundary for an hour. I was listening to The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll and wondered when Billy Zantzinger may die. I wondered what Bob Dylan would say. For some reason I had a picture of him being told [...]

I could be cynical (as usual) and say we should reset our stop-watches and see just how long the honeymoon period will lasts. But at this stage of the game perhaps we could just enjoy what this man has to offer. Don’t be fooled by the lack of slave history in his family. This is a [...] I’m not big on heroes and even with the current US President Elect I reserve the right to be sceptical that things will become significantly better.

God, another 4 years of the banana muncher is more than I can take. I have to say [...] Well its US election day. Looks like its neck and neck so I guess we’ll have to see tomorrow what the outcome is. I don’t think it will be quite as close as predicted as I’m sure lots of people make up their minds at the last minute and vote for who they think will [...] Well we went to see Fahrenheit 9/11 last night in the shiny new cinema.
