A brief one this (for once). I was fascinated to see that among the good ole boy country tunes lurking on President George Dubya Bush's iPod (apparently he listens to it during cycle workouts to pump up his heartbeat(1)) is material by fey Canadian songstress Joni Mitchell. Does he ever listen to the lyrics? And if he does, do they inspire him? Is he even now reaching for the Presidential cellphone and dialling his Deputy? "Hey, Dicky-boy, got a great new idea for the environment policy: we should pave paradise, put up a parking lot. Yeah, yeah, it's a doozie, isn'it?"
(1) well, it's so much cheaper than coke.

Quick question. Are you still minding this blog? If you are, can you drop me a line at timworstall AT gmail DOT com? I’d like to use one of your pieces in an (unapid, sorry) anthology.
