Playing in the Park


Just another beautiful crisp day in Vicky Park, playing with Lee's Mum's dog who is the sweetest rappiest doggy in the world - next to my Jade of course. Here I am discussing with her the importance of compromise on returning the tennis ball back to me.

I love days like these.

hypo-critical

We're living in critical times if the world stands united against North Korea for testing a bomb in their own basement, but not united when 1000's of innocent lives are lost because the United States and United Kingdom invade another sovereign state in the interests Of International democracy and Liberation (O.I.L).

It is absolutely unbelievable that the US, UK, Russia, China and many 'others' are outraged at the North Korea's nuclear test when it is conveniently omitted that these very countries with their large accusing foam hands, have their own nuclear weapons. Where do they test theirs? Why is it any different, why is it that they get to have nuclear weapons and other countries don't? What is this supposed criteria? Do you have to be a country lead by a person who lacks any moral intelligence, who's father was a president so it makes it ok for him to be? This entire primitive, not from the west, not adopting western forms of life, not accepting a few country's keep policies stance - does this make them uneligible for this exclusive group?

I can't believe educated people around the world accept this hypocrisy. Also it just makes me sick to think how irresponsible the media is being. Sick.

I find it almost hilarious that a newspaper (if you can call it that), the Metro, with such low standards of objective reportage says that the world is against this madman Kim Jong-Il, I'd like to know where exactly they got this interesting fact. Also the fact that its almost as if N Korea exploded this bomb in someone else's backyard. We do not even know for sure whether this bomb exploded - it might have just fizzed out unsuccessfully. Though I have to admit it is foreign diplomatic suicide for N Korea to admit that they had tested nuclear weapons. They should have just kept their mouths shut.

Even funnier to read the front page headline of Lite London tabloid - 'The bomb that shook the world'. Obviously Nikki from Big Brother wasn't doing anything exciting like filing her nails for them to put on their front page.

Shall we have another go?

The Govt and LTTE have announced that they're ok to go for another round of peace talks, though we have heard this tune before I believe that this time it will be different. There's alot happening in the midst of all the corruption and loud mouthed extremists (you all know who you are) lets just hope the people who have good intentions get to see them through right to the end.

Rock and roll again tonight with another kick ass gig from Chimovski - my spanish is improving thanks to more lessons and hopefully I'll keep to my commitment of more time each week.

¡Escribiré la semana más próxima! si no más pronto...

We have broadband!

And in other news, just went to Bristol this past weekend where Lee and his band Chimovski played a cool gig... more gigs this week too. Rock and roll.

Looks like the U.S.A is going mad (not a news flash) but am really taken aback by the unbelievable school shootings this past week. Life really is losing its value with some. But there's still hope with others.

The winter is approaching but here are some pictures of a fantastic summer gone by...
