Thursday, October 23, 2003 Re-released two years on and its my single of the year so far. Discover the brilliance that is British Sea Power. posted by Darren | 8:18 PM Wednesday, October 22, 2003 David complained that during their long and healthy 16 month marriage, Liza regularly beat him in a drug-fuelled, drunken rage. She wouldnt have needed to be drunk to beat him. She may have needed to be drunk to fuck him, but not to beat him, surely. posted by Darren | 9:08 PM Tuesday, October 21, 2003 1805 - British fleet defeats Spanish and French in the Battle of Trafalgar. 1879 - Thomas Edison invented a workable electric lightbulb. 1959 - The Guggenheim Museum opened in New York City. 1966 - The Aberfan disaster in South Wales. 144 people, including 116 children, died when a coal slagheap slid on to Pantglas Junior School. My mum lived in the area for part of her childhood and though she had moved on more than 10 years previously, mention of the disaster always upsets her. 2003 - a 10 month old baby is fatally stabbed in a High Street bakery, in Carlisle, Cumbria, Northern England. posted by Darren | 8:41 PM Monday, October 20, 2003 Smoke.

And so they told me, parum dee dumm dumm. Today in 1990, that old jew, Leonard Bernstein died. I like to be in America! O.K. by me in America! Ev'rything free in America For a small fee in America! Today in 1996, Lourdes was born. Today in 1997, that old perv, Harold Robbins died. Happy.
