I am out this Saturday for Halloween.
Last year was interesting. Hopefully this year will be as much fun.
I thought I would select a suitably spooky track. I’d forgotten this song existed until I saw Donnie Darko. A classic from the 80s with hair styles to match. It takes me back to my college days.
The line “Fate, up against your will” has been the theme of my adult life. But, I’ve survived the horror show. I am living the life I choose to live. I am happy doing so.
Screw fate!

Meanwhile on a planet far away…
New Labour still think they can win the next election. It was their conference this week. I can barely watch them any more, my blood boils within a minute. I have to turn the TV off.
Watching the usual suspects trying to spin their way out of the latest screw-up brought this song to mind.
It’s by Tracy Chapman and from one of my all time favourite albums. My best memory of TC was her playing the Nelson Mandela gig at the old Wembley in the late 80′s. She stole the show with a brilliant set.

We out on Thursday to the Red to check out their new Thursday night attraction, a “Rock Quiz.”
As I walked in the door the first question I heard was, “On what album, produced by Ian Hunter did Davis Bowie play the saxophone?”
Does anyone know stuff like that? If they do, are they allowed out of their institutions often?
Seriously, WTF? The answer should be, “Get a life.”

Racism in among future kings can only lead to no good
Last week the News of the World published a video diary in which Prince Harry, the third in line to the throne, calls one of his then Sandhurst colleagues a “Paki”. I thought I would add my reaction to the prince’s racist term.
Here’s Adamski & Seal with “Killer”. This song takes me back to some very strange days in 80′s London. Get you Rubik’s cubes out.
