Is it just me, or is Murray Head honestly trying to claim that tourists going to Bangkok – one of the world’s true capitals of prostitution and sex crimes – are unaware of its nature? Or indifferent to it?
I mean, I’m sure that there are some people who go to Bangkok for no reason other than to play chess, but they must be a very small minority of Bangkok’s total tourist trade. And it’s reputation as a city where any perversion can be purchased isn’t smoke and mirrors – there’s a fire beneath that smoke, burning up poor women and children on a daily basis.
Still, perhaps Murray is among those who are truly as pure as he claims to be. Which just goes to show how much variation there can be among siblings, given that his brother is famed for his portrayal of Dr. Frank N. Furter, amongst other roles.
Daniel Ellsberg was a military analyst employed by the RAND Corporation, when he leaked the doccuments that became known as The Pentagon Papers. They were published by the New York Times on June 13, 1971 – at the height of the Vietnam War. It was a scandal in its day, and the 7000 pages worth of documents leaked by Ellsberg represent the largest such leak in history.
Until recently, that is. No doubt you’re aware of the recent disclosure of 9000 pages of similar materials – more Pentagon documents, this time relating to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan rather than Vietnam – by WikiLeaks.
Naturally, this led to comparisoms of Daniel Ellsberg and Julian Assange. And The Washington Post took the step of asking Ellsberg about it, and he contributed a wishlist of four leaks he’d like to see on WikiLeaks.

Let’s get one thing straight, right at the start, okay? This is not me telling how to vote, this is me telling you why you should engage in the exercise of your democratic franchise. Because there are many people out there who seem to think that not voting is somehow a better idea than voting, which is why the average American president gets elected by about 25% of the US population.
So take a deep breath, prepare yourself mentally and physically, and let’s move on.

I’m guessing that, a decade later, very few people even remember this Vertigo miniseries. But I loved it, especially the intricacy of its construction.
So consider this analysis to be my little tribute to the genius of Robert Rodi.

And to mark the occasion, I’ve completed my modifications and revisions to the site, at least for now 
So welcome to the new look The Centre Cannot Hold! It’s still got all your old favourites, but a whole new look and feel, as well as some new features.
In particular, I’ve resurrected my old Soundtrack Incomplete site from its untimely grave, and given it a new home here – not much of it is up and running yet, but there’s plenty of it already and much more to come.
I’ve also finally pulled my finger out and finished the last few days of Not So Lonesome – which has only been waiting since last October, so as you can plainly see, efficiency and progress are ours once more…
If you’re following this via RSS, you’re probably wondering why all this new content has passed you by. Don’t worry, you haven’t missed anything – I’ve just changed the way I do things is all. From now on, you’ll only get it by RSS if it’s something that falls under the Blog heading (as described on that page). However, starting next Wednesday, that will include a weekly post that lists all the new things that have been added to the site and all the old things that have been revised, with links to each.
I figure that way I won’t be constantly spamming you with stuff from Soundtrack Incomplete, at least.
Well, that’s all for now. See you again soon
