... even nastier." In short, he said, "nothing is working." One winner of the Nobel peace prize Egyptians continue to admire is former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, who won the prize in 2002.

... than 3 and a half minutes. Complexity pop indeed. I recently heard an interview with the author David Peace in which he talked about his habit of copying out by hand chunks of books he admired in an effort to work out how the author had written it - an admirable practice I think, and one I'm tempted to try with "Timer" as I still can't get to the bottom of this song.

... it for them, whenever we want it more than they do, we fail and they languish. Examples? The Camp David peace treaty was not initiated by Jimmy Carter. OK, but the process would've gone nowhere without Carter's assertive leadership. (OMG, did I just praise Jimmy Carter? Yes, credit where credit is due.)

Of late I have been playing farmville on facebook. I am trying to wean myself off it but it is hard. It seemed the perfect little thing to play around with while being on msn or checking my emails.
