I'm not sure if these are happy tears. This is so bad it's almost like a parody of Country Music.

He was so prolific he ran out of ideas for album names in 1974.

Cranked this up a bit this evening. Sounds amazing on FLAC through the Pi. Luckily I have understanding neighbours.
My 75 year old neighbour has an ear for good music. When we first moved in a few years ago I was playing Mogwai rather loudly one evening, when there was a knock at the door. When I answered there stood Geoff. Now I fully expected him to ask me to turn that bloody racket down!, instead he said 'Ere, what's that your playing?'. 'Mogwai' I told him. 'I like that, can you get me copy' he asked. 'Sure thing Geoff' I said. And it's been that way ever since
Everybody needs a neighbour like Geoff!

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
