My wife wrote a book. I think thats pretty mindblowing. I have trouble finishing SMS messages and she's written a novel. Anyway, she had a party to celebrate and I thought well, lets kick it off well so I booked the Poj Masta. He was a kid studying philosphy at college and he obviously took some of that discipline to the decks as he had brought - and I think the word to use here is copious - ye...

It's not a revolutionary statement. It's not something that has never been said before and yet, there is a heartbreaking clarity to it. More that just existential ennui, it's also biological fact.

Possibly coming to them rather late, which is particularly worrying, as I'm a MASSIVE Erland Oye/Kings of Convenience fan. But, what is a massive fan? When is a table not a table, and when is it a chair? Are those questions related? Possibly.
