Why am I doing this?

Monday, November 17th, 2008

To be honest, I am not sure. A lot of friends have told me to write a book but I cannot think of a single subject nor where to start and anyway, I would get distracted. So I am just rambling as the title says.

You would be right to criticise me as being self indulgent and self opinionated for I have always been so. But I read the papers and listen to the news and recognise that they are bound by laws of libel and convention and there are times I just wish they would really say what they really mean in plain and blunt language. I have no quibble with swearing.

So I am trying here to amuse, inform, question and provoke.

Never forget the words of Edmund Burke - 'All that it is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.'
