The Drunkard

Posted on November 30, 2008 - Filed Under Poem | Leave a Comment

Standing above his night’s vice The drunkard loudly proclaims his truth to his companions, Bounds out the door, And hurls the empty rum bottle across the street, Where its shards glint in tandem with those of its slain accomplices A bald man observes all this from his doorway, And returns fire the following morning By [...]

‘Chinese Democracy’ panned by Chinese government

Posted on November 25, 2008 - Filed Under Music | Leave a Comment

From BBC News: China has dismissed the new Guns N’ Roses album, Chinese Democracy, as a “venomous attack” on the nation. An article in the Global Times, published by the ruling communist party, says the album, launched this week, “turns its spear point on China”. Having listened to it twice I think it’s pretty good.

I still don’t get why she called it that. The video doesn’t clear anything up either. Does anyone else get a Bowie-vibe from the song?

Clinton as Secretary of State

Posted on November 23, 2008 - Filed Under American Politics | 1 Comment

This by now seems like a done deal, and it strikes me as a very bad one. Perhaps the greatest policy difference between Obama and Clinton during the Democratic primary campaign lay in their ideas about how to conduct foreign policy. Obama essentially took a softer line than Clinton, suggesting that talking to enemies can [...]

Repeat Ad Infinitum

Every night I lie in bed And tell myself that tomorrow will be different, That I’ll be better suited to my life, That I’ll get stuff done, And that all this won’t seem like such a dreadful error.

Another Amanda Palmer song. I can’t stop listening to her at present, and I don’t mind in the slightest.

From teh Beeb: A manhunt is under way in western Germany for a convicted drug dealer who escaped by mailing himself out of jail. The 42-year-old Turkish citizen – who was serving a seven-year sentence – had been making stationery with other prisoners destined for the shops. At the end of his shift, the inmate [...]

On Confidence

I’m sooooooooooo drunk right now, but here goes some blogging. I really, really, really ought to just drink in the morning. Honestly. I’m so much more at ease after having a few. And I’m so much happier too. And besides, who wants to live past 60 anyway… Also, why the hell am I so paranoid [...]
