I wish my wife had been just a lover I couldn't please, that way we would never have made it down the aisle. Outside of my obviously bitter existence, I am sorry you have hurt your ankle. The rugby player in me wants to offer the usual advice of, "you should put some beer on that." In this...

Global warming might be ready to get the treatment it deserves over here. Al Gore is the big story at the moment. Listened to a big debate on the radio today. Will he/won't he run against Hilary and McCain. Regarding the weather, one expert put it this way....there are six billion of us, we're about...

All through college I shared housing with a chemical engineer. We were great friends (he was the best man at my wedding) he went on to do a masters at Sellafield. Sellafield is the british nuclear power station which collects and reprocesses the spent fuel rods from all the other nuclear facilities ...

Chernobyl

Please take time to go to slate.com and see the photographic essay by Paul Fusco about Chernobyl today. Ignore the cheap sentiment of the choral soundtrack and listen to his voice. An amazing work.

You might check out "Priest" (I think) it was about a priest who was coming to terms with the fact that he was gay. It was a long time ago but I remember thinking it was OK. Having said that, I dimly recall liking it more because some scenes were filmed in the part of Liverpool where I liv...

Yeah, I couldn't believe that photograph. Fancy sitting next to some bloke with a goatee, in a pub in the middle of nowhere Wales and have him tell you he was Green Gartside. I would have probably replied that I already knew that, seeing as I was Stevie Wonder and we had shared some studio time back...

The enjoyment I get from reading this review dulls the disappointment of not being able to come out there this summer and hear you in full flow.

Big hit with the kids. I keep talking over it so they don't focus on the word "shit" Although, I did use it as an example of a funny video lending contrast to a sad song. And that's how they ask for it to be played. "Dad let's have the sad song with the funny film."

scritti pollitti

Hello chaps. No time to talk at moment. If you don't own "Songs to Remember" or "cupid and Psyche" then get out there and get them. Don't know about this new work yet though. Still, nice to see someone back from the dead. Even if you don't like this band, read the quote from Bob ...

Google Alex Murphy. As I boringly remind anybody who will listen, we are related. His dad is my great uncle.

funnily enough I saw the game against Detroit by default last night. I went to the pub to watch the Reds (I had a couple of fellas over to watch the european cup final in the afternoon and we decided to stick with the beer and sports thing) The pub had the Reds on, but sadly they were concentrating ...

It's all gone busy busy here. We have formally agreed the parenting plan and we are just waiting on the money issue. (Which we can't finalise until the house sells) I mentioned to the missus that I have no intention of her living in this house if she is not married to me, or when she gets back from ...

I wouldn't disagree with you about sales in america, but he sold a shitload of stuff everywhere else. You could probably buy a yacht with his Ukranian residuals. He certainly got the subject matter spot on.
