A MEASURE OF SUCCESS
















Well, this new template does seem to be working, and yes, it is a great deal more conventional than the previous one, and I miss the huge implausible comments board with its 1027 posts that is now lost for eternity, but like old Bob once reminded us “everything ages and everything changes” (or was it the other way round?) and we work within the bloody corporate limitations to do what we think we should do. All I can suggest is that we get used to it and have as much fun as we can. The conflict is by no means over.

And did anyone happen to see the story about the bloody great UFO that hovered over Chicago’s O’Hare Airport on November 7th, but nobody told us about until a couple of days ago? (Sent by some girl)

The secret word is Excelsior

Meanwhile I have a cover story in the new LA CityBeat on Bush’s Twilight Zone as it moves from 2006 to 2007.

The new template's okay; I like the links section.

Interesting CityBeat article, too.

Have you read TNH's take on Bush's claim to have been asleep while Hussein was hanged? http://nielsenhayden.com/makinglight/archives/008484.html#008484 . If I hadn't read that, I might have continued in my innocent belief that having a nap while a mob hangs the man he'd spent hundreds of billions of dollars and thousands of lives on trying to kill was a harmless world-leaderly eccentricity caused by being drunk off his tree or having the attention span of a rhesus monkey or something.
