Ok, I promise, this time I will post my travel log from France, begining tomorrow. but, first some thoughts: Firstly, France is still the home of liberty, equality, and fraternity. Secondly, the food is incredible. not only do the french insist on having delicious food, the noticible lack of preservatives and of growth hormones, coupled with the fresh fresh fresh ingredients, make even meals in the most lowly of corner bistros a feast for the senses. And the cheeses are richer, more creamey and probably healthier for you, too. Thirdly, Paris can truly be said to be New York without the cocaine addiction. et, demain, les descriptions travelaires.

I'm back, bitch! Tales from France to follow, as soon as I get over my jet lag. I will leave you with this thought: Paris is New York, without the cocaine. Thursday, June 10, 2004
Perhaps I have been too strident, and too cruel towards the demise of our 40th president. Perhaps I should not levy my bile on a man who has only recently passed away. I should wait a respectable time before again decrying everything he stood for, and angrily spouting my vitriol. After all, "de mortuis nil nisi bonum." But Nancy Regan is still quite alive.

While widely reported at the time, Regan did not yell: "Goebbels, you magnificent bastard! I read your book!" as he visited the graveyard in Bittburg, Germany. We know this to be apocryphal for two reasons. First, even Regan would not dare to sully the life and reputation of Patton by taking one of Patton's most famous quotes, and twisting it to fit an expedient political need. Secondly, because Regan couldn't read. Sunday, June 06, 2004
At last, the old man is dead. If only the politics of hate and exclusion, of dispairity between rich and poor, of haves and haves-not, could die with him. One day, when the revolution comes, the wall will not be long enough to line them all up against it. We will need some people to build more wall, which sould guarantee the revolution provides jobs, at least temporarily. Friday, June 04, 2004
Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, so i am proposing to lose weight. in other news, gas prices have reached up to 7.00 in Great Britain (~ L1.53), while in the US, we have topped over $2.00. this is the first time i have heard that gas now costs more than coke. coca-cola, that is (do the math: even at $.50 per litre, a gallon being about 4 litres, coke is $2.00 per gallon at its lowest--- and usually it is more like 1.50 for a 2 litre bottle, making it $3.00 a gallon.) I love capitalism. Tuesday, June 01, 2004
