His message to Trump nails it.
Booze, news and views from a drunken opinionated fool who can't spell very well, may well repeat himself, and can't blame it on dislexia

that obama was sedatious
The words 'pot kettle and black' spring to mind, and if the American legal system had done it's job we wouldn't be in this mess now. Release the Epstein files!

t.rex the slider album released july 1972
In July 1972, this magnificent work of art was released. A mere 53 years ago. Possibly the most played album in my collection, with 'Electric Warrior' and the 'Bolan Boogie' compilation not far behind.

no genocide in gaza bullshit
Call me an old deluded fool, but l think Bret Stephens has got this wrong. One day in the future people will look back and wonder how this was allowed to happen. I've nothing against Israelis and the general population, but Netanyahu's regime and the IDF's war crimes are something completely different, and should be called out.

donald trump sues the wall street journal (and his previous auctioned drawings)
As The Wall Street journal is threatened with legal action by Donald Trump over the publishing of the contents of a birthday card to Jeffrey Epstein (below), anyone who thinks the WSJ haven't checked the providence of this and run it past many lawyers before publishing is deluded. Trump denies sending the message, which also contained a drawing of a naked lady, stating that he does not draw, and does not even doodle, which is a wild statement to make, as he has previously auctioned of signed drawings he's done (see further below). Once again, he can either draw and has auctioned his drawings, or can't draw and his claimed drawings are fake. Either way, both can't be true, so he's is once again a proven liar, and will continue to lie as long as he breathes.
john lennon cracking up over a ringo starr picture
And talking of bad drawings....Here's a magnificent photograph of John Lennon cracking up with laughter after seeing a picture of Ringo Starr drawn by a fan. Atlanta in 1965 (ish). Ringo looks like he's one of The Three Stooges idiotic brothers.
marc bolan on the cover of 'judy' comic 1976
Who on God's great and glorious green earth drew this picture, and how in the name of my grannies old knickers was it passed to go on the cover of this 1976 issue of the 'Judy' comic? I could of draw better when pissed up and in total blackness, and trust me - l can't draw. Saying that, neither can whoever did this. A travesty.
re-enacting THAT meme
One of the most famous memes on the internet, re-enacted by the same people 10 years later.
the dover protesters - protect are kids
Not the sharpest tools in the toolbox, but certainly tools. Urged on by the right wing press and the usual suspects, who should really be held accountable when the violence kicks off.

and talking of fanzines / magazines....the ramones and the waterboys
While looking at the mad prices for the 'Sniffin' Glue' fanzines, l stumbled upon this Ramones one, which was but together by a friend of mine from Sunny Darlington (Dave) many years ago, and he would admit himself he wouldn't have done so without knowing me. Fetching decent prices so l hope he has a load left he can flog nowadays, but more importantly, he was obviously a huge fan of The Ramones and got to see them many times following them around the country selling this.
I did a similar thing before him with a couple of Waterboys ones (see below), which is where he got the idea from, but l gave my remaining copies away at a Waterboys gig in Liverpool, unless l have a few hidden away in the garage somewhere (fingers crossed!).

fanzine 3 chords - now form a band information
Probably the most famous page from any fanzine back in the days of the punk wars, summing up the do it yourself and have a go attitude of the time. It has been repeated many times, but this page is from the Sideburns fanzine (Below).

ageing is a bastard - kris needs
I was re watching a documentary about Blondie last night and Kris Needs pops up giving a soundbite. Christ on a bike, age can be cruel (and l should know). He used to be the cool young journalist about town back in the day, but l do hope he's doing OK these days.
