Back by popular demand.
Retirement was just not in the cards for me. The clamor made by my public was deafening. I would like to answer each and every one of you but that would be impossible.
So, in the interest of time I'll respond to the four most poignant messages:
Yes, Gandhi Rules it is about fucking time.
Toasty, it is not proper to call a man approaching his seventieth year 'crabby pants'. The more mature term would be 'crabby trousers'.
Thanks Cameo for so noticing my absence. It's so nice to be so noticed.
But, the most astonishing message of them all came from Janet Evening who said she assumed I was rock climbing. How in the world could she have known that!
You bloggers are some really big time ass kickers.
As to current events, in the last twenty four hours bombs have killed people in Afghanistan, Lebanon, India, Iraq and Pakistan. So, there's nothing new in that.
Here is Mexico someone threw a grenade into the office of a newspaper. We haven't gotten to the real bomb stage yet. Nobody wants to stick around long enough to detonate it so,for now, its tossing grenades and run like hell.
QUOTE OF THE DAY:
Every new love is a murderer. Without batting an eye, It kills all former loves - Blaga Dimitrova
MEXICO (as I see it):
One nice thing about Mexico is the equality among the social strata. It's comforting to know that the rich don't get what they pay for either.
Their cable television channels come with black screens, static or screeching noise, no sound or garbled sound too. Their computers cannot find the server either. Their fancy houses are on streets flooded by honking trucks, thumping radio speakers and hawkers of every description selling plastic crap of every description just like everybody's streets.
Mexico's pretty much free of rules and regulation, unless, of course, one is trying to apply to the government for something, then a labyrinth of laws suddenly appears. Our society is free wheeling. Something between laissez faire and lawlessness.
Still, it's satisfying to know it works the same way for all of us.

The quote of the day, yes, I see the truth in this.
As for the equality among the social strata, I too would feel a pleasure in this.
