This is me after the Manchester United Everton game. Two valuable points thrown away.

mick jagger looks happy (not) to be dressed up
I know the wedding was many years ago, but these photographs just make me chuckle. Mick Jagger does not look too pleased to be dressed up in costume for his wedding to Jerry Hall, and is probably having acid flashbacks to the cover of The Rolling Stones album 'Their Satanic Majesties Request'. It just shows, no matter how much money and fame you have, you still have to make compromises in a relationship!
Here's the album cover mentioned above
And here's an outtake from it

jack kirby's views on captain america wearing insurrectionists
I've only just seen this, but love it, and not just as a fan of Jack Kirby (and now Neil Kirby). It also sums up my feelings towards the low lifes, and it's great that Neil has come out and made this statement. It's shame more people, especially in the Republican party, haven't done the same, or they have the unscrupulous brass balls to defend it.

the rolling stones at la forum 1975 - happy
This was the tour where it was more or less 'One song - One line', but Keith Richards still manages to look cool (with his new teeth), despite the bellbottoms, missing the start of 'Happy', and various other bits. Mick does the honourable thing and helps him out, but the sloppiness is also part of the attraction with the Stones, and Keef just keeps rolling along.

and so it strarts - workers rights and priti patel talking crap
As expected, the chipping away at worker's rights begins after Brexit. As for the people who voted for the omnishambles and are currently complaining about loss of income, jobs, food shortages and having to pay more for transported goods, a lot of Remainers are feeling sorry for them because they feel the Brexit voters were conned. Those Remainers are better than me, as l have no sympathy, and it's not like they were not warned, so fuck them, the closet and not so closeted right wing, narrow minded, little Britain clutching at 'sovereignty' racists.
OK, there may be exceptions, but l prefer to gloat. Not admirable, but it passes the time during lockdown, and cheers me up no end

And this woman is our Home Secretary.

A photograph of New York's Central Park that is new to me and looks fantastic shot from above.
Which reminded me of this poignant and spectacular photo, from when Muhammad Ali knocked out Cleveland Williams (By Neil Leifer)

brexit's messed up my mojo
FFS - I wondered what's happened to the latest Mojo.
Fucking Boris and Brexit have a lot to answer for. It's one thing messing up the whole country (apart from me, because l will be OK) , but don't fuck up my subscription magazines and cd deliveries

the lockdown eating isn't that healthy
The lockdown eating hasn't been that healthy. I've finally managed to make decent potato cakes (add plenty of butter afterwards), and have been followed them up with cheese, crackers and wine. Yum Yum!
political books
If l've been a bit political recently, this recent reading probably hasn't helped. Then again, with Boris and Trump in power, politics is pretty important.

laura nyro at monterey 1967
I was watching the out-takes of the Monterey Festival from 1967 last night (as you do), and thought l'd share this mesmerising footage of Laura Nyro from it. There's only her performance of Poverty Train, plus the end of Wedding Day Blues, but it is outstanding, even to these noise raddled ears and ravaged old eyes. Amazing to think that she apparently thought at the time that she was not liked at the festival and was not well received.
Unfortunately, there is not a lot of footage of her to be found anywhere, but she was a special talent, and her first three albums are exceptional, although she is better known for other people covering her songs.

the new european trump and the corrupt boris
Rather sadly, the future of democracy is looking more fragile every year, and l also apply that to the UK and Boris Johnson's corrupt money grabbing, two faced government, who have been using the same tactics as Trump, chipping away at democracy with blatant lies and lawbreaking since they gained power, and rather sadly, just at the time we need a strong but fair and compassionate leadership. The right wing press barons and their apologists have a lot to answer for.
Never mind, we've now got blue passports and happy fish.

Harvey Weinstein, Jeff Epstein, and Ghislaine Maxwell at Princess Beatrice's 18th
After the post below about people l would like to have a night out with, here's the opposite.
Prince Andrew might not sweat, but he's got a lot to answer for inviting these three to his daughter's 18th. Then again, l guess they were close personal friends, although he's bound to deny that now.
going out on new years eve with george best and billy Connelly
If l was able to go out tonight, here's two fine fellows from a few years ago where l'm sure I'd be guaranteed a wild night out. Billy Connelly and George Best. George in this photo (from 1977) looks as though he thinks Billy might be a bit too much for him. And that is one hell of a statement.

the new york post turns on donald trump
It's about time, but The New York Post has finally decided Donald Trump should admit he's lost the election. In what other kind of mad world would it have taken so long? I understand people want to keep jobs and feed their families, but they should have been on the side of democracy straight away.
Rather sadly, l think the Biden presidency will be a blip, and there will be a lot more right wing fuckers in power in the future

charles dozsa on how to behave when being arrested
If l had a pound for every time l have watched this, l could retire to dine on succulent chinese meals for the rest of my life. Charles Dozna deals with being arrested in an impeccable manner. For those that don't know, he used to bugger off from food establishments without paying. I'd have happily paid for his meal if l could have the privilege of having one with him. What a class pisshead.

verrazzano bridge swaying in high winds
Because of high winds, New York's Verrazano Bridge had to close. I'm impressed by how much it's moving in this video, but more impressed by the noise it makes. I could listen to that all day on a loop.
You could market this as an alternative to whale songs.

ruben's cupid escapes at brussels airport
This looks absolutely amazing. Ruben's Cupid escaping from the painting at Brussels Airport and flying around. I can't believe there are so many people in the airport not interested in watching it, as l would go out of my way by quite a bit to witness this. Hats off to all the people responsible.
