My world was recently introduced to the work and music of two talented young women, and my world was rocked. They go by the name of Lucius - a band completed by three talented musicians. How do I describe their music? It is an unknown genre to me. If I were pushed into a corner... Continue Reading →
Navigating the Afghan Minefield
I am going out on a limb here, though not such a fragile limb as those news analysis sites who have published this story. I am merely passing it on for your attention. I have to say I do agree with the general thrust of the narrative, though aware it could all fall apart very... Continue Reading →
Cracks Appearing in the West
The cracks in the legitimacy and sustainability of Western culture are beginning to force themselves to our attention. I reported yesterday on Kunstler's latest notes on the situation in America. Today I can tell you that one in three British children are now living in poverty. Supermarket shelves are empty, not necessarily due to the... Continue Reading →

Don't worry muscovites, I'm sure you will soon find a way to 'flush' this 'exhibit'. A small victory over... Continue Reading →
After the Victory, comes…
Learning to run a country. The next big task for the Taliban. The easy part - getting rid of the Americans - now being over (although the door is not yet closed behind them, and it was only opened as a result of the dire condition of that nation's circumstances of slow, self-induced, self-inflicted death),...

The Unmaking of Australia
Australia today, is not the Australia I crossed half a world to join, 40 years ago - a little more than half my lifetime. That's a fact. What Australia has become, is an insult to all who were involved in forming this once great nation. Great in size, great in character, and also great in... Continue Reading →

I know this is stupid, BUT I LOVE IT! "Democrats Promise To Make Sure Every American Stuck In Afghanistan Receives A Mail-In Ballot" - The Babylon Bee "Democrats Promise To Make Sure Every American Stuck In Afghanistan Receives A Mail-In Ballot"
