I don't know why I've started this blog. Perhaps I have too much free time on my hands. Anyway, you should be able to gather from its title of that virtually all the information I publish will be of dubious provenance and highly unreliable. This stops me from having to pretend that in having a blog, I am trying to fulfil a higher social purpose. And it prevents you from pretending that, in reading it, you are doing yourself some good, intellectually, morally or spiritually.
Anyway, when I think of something important or meaningful to say I will publish it here. Until then, get used to the usual opinionated bollocks you can read anywhere else.

ReplyDeleteHmmm. "I would like to take you on wings of song as it were, and try and help you forget momentarily your drab, wretched lives."
I also was deeply influenced by Tom Lehrer. Even took up the ukulele da gamba.
I'm sorry - you are quite right: it should have read
ReplyDelete"This is a shallow, vain, *and despicably derivative* attempt..." ;-)
I have the Remains of Tom Lehrer on CD if you want me to rip you a copy...
Too kind . . . think I'll just live with my memories for now.
