    That's a good one Geoff.

    I love Hendrix for so many reasons. He was so much more than just a blues guitarist - he played damn well any kind of guitar he wanted. In fact I'm not sure if he even played the guitar - he played music. - Stevie Ray Vaughan

    Record shops are pants, I don't miss them one bit. Overpriced stock and in shitty condition, there might be exceptions, new vinyl is shite too. Ebay absolutely rules for me, money back guarantee is excellent. I reckon the ones in the US are different though, so much stock, must be more competitively priced.

    Paul Young was just on BBC News, not heard much about him for a while. One of the better pop acts of his time I guess. He's well in his sixties now and definitely has a proper boozer's face by the look of him, mind you the hair seems to be doing well, is it transplanted?

    (he seems to have got over being burgled by Gino D'Acampo )

    Eh?

    I saw Paul Young in about 1987 when he was supporting Genesis at Leeds Roundhay Park. His voice was knackered then - maybe he was just having a bad day, I don't know. I think even in those days before autotune was a thing, the studio could still polish a turd, but no hiding it when your voice has to fill a giant space. He was already known for liking a bevy or two.

    Seems he got his act together and got better with his singing. But I think the fags and booze had already done for his face.

    As for Paul's hair - it's amazing what you can do with a leftover bit of Astroturf and a tin of Cherry Blossom

    He's possibly the best Family Fortunes host since Dennis though.

    Yes there's that I suppose. And the dump I had this morning is the best since the one I had on Tuesday.

    Perhaps he could do a spin-off show, "Celebrity Family Fortunes Gone Missing", or "Shed Contents of the Not-yet Famous".

    Hmm. Could pull down the remains and put up a block of council flats, the area is short of social housing!

    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!”
