The Way You Make Me Feel
Sheesh! I see Wackos's ended up in hospital with......flu-like symptoms. Over here we call that a common cold. Mind you, over here the brightest stars of Hollywood - such as Liz Taylor, Oprah Winfrey, Diana Ross and Yuri Geller? - wouldn't be queuing up to support the accused as the US media is reporting. Mind you, they haven't appeared yet so we'll see. I guess their agents, lawyers and advisors are monitoring the situation before deciding whether it will 'play good' to have their precious cash cows ruin their futures for the sake of a severely dysfunctional Incidentally, I've been off work the past two days with 'flu-like symptoms'. They should just be grateful I wasn't rushed to the nearest intensive care.
Dearest is going back in hospital again soon but this time with cartilage problems. She's going via the NHS but they have farmed her out to a private hospital in order to make the waiting list look better. It's a bit different with my Dad of course. 76 y'see, so he's basically treated as though he should be grateful that he's being seen to at all. In fact, after his last little experience of modern medicine he's quite adamant that he's not going back inside. Essentially, he'd rather die with a little dignity and control than put up with the shambolic, doctor-worship that he experienced earlier this year. In 20 years Dearest will be treated exactly the same way.
A Labour Government. A Labour Government moreover enjoying a second term and pretty certain it will win a third, is recreating Margaret's policies 20 years after she tried so hard to implement them.
What's that noise?
That, my dear boy, is Keir Hardie, Clem Attlee, Nye Bevan and Barbara Castle spinning in their graves.
I'm a bit confused about the Artist Formerly Known As Cat Stevens and his relationship with terrorism. Did he or did he not refuse to condemn Ayatollah Khomeni's Fatwah on Salman Rushdie or not? Can somebody out there put this to bed for me or not? Because I quite liked him back in the early 70s and just the other night I was playing The Foreigner Suite and drifting back once again. I've surfed and surfed and the answers to that question are contradictory to say the least.
