some things stink and this stinks!
MCB sent me this link earlier today and quite frankly I am lost for words. I wonder what the Swedish politicians will say on this? Hopefully they will jump on this school harshly because this is incredible!
How any teacher can confiscate a little boys party invites is beyond me. I [...]

I am not getting too far with my plan of watching Bond with Swedish subtitles as ‘homework.’

Its with a lot of sadness that I read Morrissey is finally going to do a gig in Israel. I hope he now follows up on his desire to play in Iran to balance things out. I cant quite see the Iranian Authorities allowing Moz in though.
