I'm always honored to be proved wrong.

I wouldn't expect you to write anything very intelligent for your 500 post or to do it in my thread.

Honor me

sadly, rhythm prevents me adding you to the list (unless I change it to "one God" etc, quickly get another wife, become Guardian of a further dog, and admit to another child).

thanks about the Kingsnorth! I am going to a private showing with the defendants and other Greenepeacey people this week. Best of all it's with the director Nick Broomfield and he is one talented documentary film maker. The article I wrote for the Guardian website was funny because they spoke to me on Friday afternoon at 2 and they said they wanted 700 words by 3, cool but I was straight back into court and people had the nerve to keep talking, as if they were all part of some murder trial, whilst I was trying to write the article on my laptop, hey! I never even had time to check it properly but I think it was ok. and btw I didn't choose the title "how we won the Kingsnorth acquittal" . Obviously if I had chosen it would have been "How I won the Kingsnorth acquittal", hee hee lots of times etc.

your friend

crap comment Jack, wholly lacking in wit or grace. my guess is you regret it already.

Hi Jack,

Just poking a quick note in between the Big Guns' comments, to share my 'reader-only' impressions of John Rolf Hecht:

I enjoyed this poem Jack, I thought the use of a person's name as the title was an effective set-up, suggesting the piece was about someone 'real', which made it more interesting to continue. (By the end of the poem, I had even formed a mental image of him – medium height, slim build, light brown hair hidden by a taupe-coloured hat blah blah...) Also, I agree with Iveta, the mood seemed reflective, as if in tribute to a person who is no longer around or alive.

I doubt you are bloodied or bruised by the criticism, Jack. Alan Alda's comments are unfailingly constructive, and The Lion is brilliant of course, he just roars a lot more often than he purrs, as lions are designed to do.

What was it Clinton said in his speech endorsing Obama? Something about ...leading by the power of example rather than by the example of power...

Thanks so much for making me laugh all the time, its wonderful.

YOu must be the perfect husband too, to stay home while your woman bikes around Europe wow, mighty impressive indeed!
Have you any single friends that love witty wise older irish women, that cannot cook but have great taste in music?

Saturday evening and time to open a bottle of red and chill out


enjoy the rest of your evening

ps... Jack wants me to Honour him? Like Lucilla wanted the people to honour Maximus?................... back to the Arena again.

nope his actual words, according to Reuters, were, "I once had a girl in the White house, her moniker was Monica, her best friend was called Veronica, now there's a Black man in the White house and harmonica has broken out across the World" .

The crowd broke into an orgy of applause.

Clinton then added that he had diamonds under his knees and his lover, the Queen, was staying under cover. The crowd then broke into an orgy of violence.

Kathy's best bike trip tale is when she was riding in India and broke her foot. When she repeats this story she normally delays adding the truth that she was walking at the time and drunk and simply fell into a pothole !

"witty wise older irish women"- you're a real catch in my opinion!

in his case it would be more like honouring minimus, or maybe minny mouseimus.

Since you are living in Vancouver you should probably know that John Rolf Hecht was very much real. The sometimes historian Peter Newman once made the small comment that during the Bennett years in British Columbia that it was really Hecht who made the decisions.

I admired this man greatly and I am astounded that he is not that well known. I have come to think that there are some men who lives get lived in such a way that they are just as important later as when they lived them.

You can see a picture of him along with his beautiful wife Lotte here:

I pronounce you the wittiest of all. But not the kindest.
