Today would have been Freddie Mercury's 59th birthday. To mark the event I have been playing Queen songs and I have made a donation to the Mercury Pheonix trust, which was the aids trust that Queen set up after he died.
Anyway, The date went well the other night and yes NJLB..I did take your advice. ( is swallowing aloud though? ), I'm going to see him again next week, he's very a very sweet guy. Still keeping my options open though.
Lee phoned me last night and he has dumped Dave.Apparantly he was very high maintainance and Lee got pissed off with it. He is going through a rebelious stage I think..he seems to be shagging anything that moves, he's started smoking and has been dabbling with drugs..I'm not getting involved and just let him get on with it.
Antony is ok too, we still seem to spend most of our time together, and we are still behaving like an old married couple. We've got a lot of things planned for the next few months.
Another thing..what the fuck is happening in New Orleans? From what I'm seeing on the news it just seems like everyone has gone on the rampage. In this country, we would pull together as a community and help each other out and pull each other through it, I cant get my head around all these gun totting twats that are running round shooting people and looting shops. O.K. to an extent I can understand breaking into a shop to try and get water and food, but I saw a picture in the paper of looters carrying arm full's of tracksuits...now I'm not being funny, but no one is really going to want to bye them are they? Also, if people want help, why are some dickheads shooting at the rescuers? Some people really do need to get a grip on reality!!
It also seems that George Bush really has done fuck all about it. The best bit of advice I heard was " If you dont need to bye gas, then dont! " thats going to help!! It did make me laugh though. Its a huge thing that the government have to cope with, but they have been slow sorting there shit out. We had something happen over here last year in a place called Boscastle. After a freak storm, a wall of water came down off the mountains washed the village away, they are still pulling cars out of the sea and they are a mile from land. These people just got on with it and those not as badly affected helped those that were. Some people had all they're family and house wiped away in seconds, but no one got a gun and started shooting at the numerous rescue helicopters that were flying over trying to get people.
Maybe its a social thing between out two country's, and without trying to big our country up ( we too have huge faults ) i definatly think we are more community minded and more willing to help each other in time of crisis.
Thats it..rant over

Congrats on a good first date. Now for our lovely pussy of a president over here..he has done nothing,nor have the members of his staff or alot of the members of congress..it is a shame that we as big a country as we are can help other countries so fast but we can not help our own fast enough.
