My Gang
I finally found a gang I wouldn’t mind joining. Except I don’t think I am cool enough.
Life
Gary Larsen is one of the greatest cartoonists ever. What a pity he actually retired when he said he was going to! I am hoping I may have a the same privilege sometime in the next five years. Life. It’s not really like that, thought it sometimes seems so. Julian of Norwich had it better, …
Criminal Profiling Doesn’t Work
Impressed by Criminal Minds? Don’t be. It was great television, but criminal profiling doesn’t work. You might as well ask a psychic with a tea cosy on her head in a fairground tent. From time to time psychics and profilers make a lucky guess, and this is trumpeted to the media. But based in reality? …
Wynford Wilde Author Website
I just finished the author website for Wynford Wilde. This is the place to go for news on upcoming adventures in the Jennifer Jones series, starting with Dark Turnings, which is now available for Kindle or in paperback.

Cultural Appropriation Has to Stop!
Justice for hillbillies! Nah. Actually, except for the slightly wonky vowels, I enjoyed it. Good on them!
Booker T and the MGs
Some things are worth remembering:
Clapton, Winwood; Presence of the Lord
Two legends, great guitar, great words:
In the Heart of the Sea
I watched this tonight. Wow! What a great movie. The special effects are a bit cheesy in just a couple of places, but story and characters are compelling throughout. I loved it.
New Ben Hur Movie
I loved the book, and the 1959 movie with Charleton Heston. The new movie version, due in cinemas in August 2016, looks great!
So Much Christian Music is Rubbish
But not this: Even when the oceans rage, I don’t have to be afraid. Even when I fail, you are the same forever. Your love never fails.
Why Dick Went Under
OK. Yep. That explains quite a lot, actually…
