The Whole World Remind Me of My Dog

 Never mind the cute doggy video, the song is soooooooooo groovy...
 "This whole world reminds me of my dog".  That is my philosophy. Though I no longer have a dog, I think of him still...

Bush Charged With War Crimes?

Phillipe Sands was a guest on NPR's Fresh Air tonight, discussing his book The Torture Team, An Administration Accused .

One of things Sands talks about in the Fresh Air interview is that international war crimes charges can be brought by any nation. As an insider, consulting international lawyer, Sands described conversations he has had with heads of states of other nations, where the reality of the United States being charged with international war crimes, is often discussed. He said that the current administration doesn't think it will happen because no other nation would do that to the United States. He said that charges could be made against Rumsfeld, Cheney and possibly even Bush.

If I understood what he was saying correctly. Like what happened to Pinochet in Chili, it could take years. Do ya think it will happen?

All Men Are Liars - Nick Lowe

All Men, All Men are liars their words ain’t worth no more than worn out tires.
Hey Girls, bring rusty pliers to pull this tooth, all men are liars and that’s the truth.

Do you remember Rick Astley?
He had a big fat hit that was ghastly.
He said I’m never gonna give you up or let you down.
Well I’m here to tell ya that Dick’s a clown
Though he was just a boy when he made that vow.
I’d bet it all that he knows by now.

Chorus

Among god’s creatures man must be.
The most slimy and slippery now.
There stands the naked ape in a monkey suite.
Behind a little mustache he grew, the shifty brute.
All the ones not choking on the words they ate are
Sweating on getting their stories straight

transpcript of the charming Nick Lowe's statements at the end of the video (which is the best part)

"I'm going to be 41 next March...it's now January...I'm 41...yes..and I still feel kind of naughty (laughs)...you know...I'm not a wild enough guy to be real horrible, you know...but I think there's ways of getting your point across...you know...without alienating everybody...and I certainly didn't think I'd still be doing it at 40...no, indeed...bu this thing is, you see...that now I really think that I'm just starting to get good...I think I'll be real great when I'm 60...I'm going to look fantastic when I'm 60"
