And though I came to forget or regret all I have ever done, yet I would remember that once I saw the dragons aloft on the wind at sunset above the western isles; and I would be content.

Again no one has chosen "German experimental and electronic music" on Pointless. WTF is wrong with people?

I don't have my vinyl-in-a-tin copy of PiL’s Metal Box any more. I sold it to Kriminal Records in Newport. It was subsequently purchased from there by Keith Levene (then living in Gwent), who needed to relearn the stuff for "Metal Box Live." Has any other reader had a similar experience?

You have to help another person. But it's not right to play God with masses of people. To be God you have to know what you're doing. And to do any good at all, just believing you're right and your motives are good isn't enough.

Doing the Everyman crossword and realised that the song "Voodoo Chile" has been autocorrected so often that "Child" is most common net spelling. Which wouldn't matter but for the fact there is a "Voodoo Child" not by "rocker Jimi" (but by Rogue Traders) which makes the clue wrong.

I think it was Shiny Beast by Beefy because i wasn't gonna bother with CDs at all unless the Captain was available. But it might have been Thursday Afternoon by B Eno because of lengthy listening experience. One a them 2.

War as a moral metaphor is limited, limiting, and dangerous. By reducing the choices of action to “a war against” whatever-it-is, you divide the world into Me or Us (good) and Them or It (bad) and reduce the ethical complexity and moral richness of our life to Yes/No, On/Off.

As a Star Trek person who thinks Star Wars is bobbins, I am often wondering why there has never been a Welsh character on the Trek. I'm available! (Dai Lithium-Crystals would be my character's name.)

A hero whose heroism consists of killing people is uninteresting to me, and I detest the hormonal war orgies of our visual media, the mechanical slaughter of endless battalions of black-clad, yellow-toothed, red-eyed demons.

Lester Bowie should be the one that gets called "Bowie", because he was first and it is his real name. Also "Boo-ee" is the correct pronunciation because of this very fact.

If the World Cup is abolished, what are the ramifications for the Years of Hurt? Will they extend unto eternity, when the heat death of the universe causes the Years of Hurt to exist in a dimensionless singularity? Will the Years of Hurt continue to be present in the next universe, as Dark Hurt?

People see the scars. But they see you, too, and you aren't the scars. You aren't ugly. You aren't evil. You are Therru, and beautiful. You are Therru who can work, and walk, and run, and dance, beautifully, in a red dress.
