Saw it on Saturday with my son and Sharon.

All 3 of us admired it immensely. A difficult film to enjoy, it is nonetheless magnificent in its ambition and delivery against that.

The lighting nd the sound when […]

Depends on artist and venue, no?

Afghan Whigs at the 930 club? Doesn’t matter.
RT at the Birchmere? Very, very bad idea.

My kid loved them when he was young. I still have great memories of him bouncing on the bed in the hotel when my parents, brother and sis-in-law came to visit, and he was just shouting “The Wiggles! The Wiggles!” […]

Have we already forgotten Father Kevin?

Watched: The Sweeney made it over here, so I’m working my way through it. It still stands up. Great TV. Apart from, a few old movies.

Listened: primarily podcasts. My favorites right now are “Dolly Parton’s […]

I’m lucky in as much as that my preferred venue, The Birchmere is all seated and no-one gets up to dance but sit to appreciate the music.

I have, on the other hand, almost done murder at the 9.30 Club with […]

I know our home phone from the 70s, my grandparents from then, and every home phone since.

At least they aren’t confusing Zoophobia with Zoophilia. THAT would be embarrassing.

People who live in a country with a 37% prosecution rate and a conviction rate of under 33% in men aged under 24 may perhaps be better off improving their own country before casting too many aspersions abroad…

One of my favorite tracks from one of my favorite albums. I want to be as happy at work as this guy:

Alexa, Siri, the Google version….all evil. The amount of privacy and conversation you are surrendering is just…horrible. My prediction is that sooner or later there will be a criminal prosecution where the […]

2019 has been…interesting. I started in a job I really liked, and then quit in .April because of the effect it was having on my mental health.

So, a couple of small contracting gigs and a lot of time off. […]

Ah. That makes more sense!

Wait. Flower of Scotland is racist?

You’re referring the section about Proud Edward I suppose? Who invaded Scotland?

Stop being invasive Colonial powers and England will stop being called out as such.

And […]

A least Annie Nightingale got something.

The only thing Duncan Smith should get is an early political grave.

Section 2 is Patrick(s)

A bottle of gin from Colorado, and a couple of very nice books that I’ve been after for a while.

And my son’s delight at seeing some of the rubbish I got him that dates back 25 years…

I (and Sharon) wish everyone every happiness and health for you and your family

As hokey as it sounds, I appreciate everything about this place.

Thanks

Yes. Never used by racists:
Not appropriated by, say, the EDL at all. or the BNP.

I live in the South. Not all Confederate flaggers wants slavery back. They want something like “my heritage celebrated”.
