This is truly scary.

Noam Chomsky is one of my favourite authors and speakers. Though one of the world's leading intellectuals, he is rarely interviewed in the US media. He doesn't speak in sound-bites and his ideas and answers delve deeper into the issues than the 30 seconds normally permitted to interviewees.

The vice-presidential debate between Sarah Palin and Joe Biden is today.
And though Palin has been doing terribly in interviews with the press, I'm not sure she's gonna bomb as badly tonight. She's been in 'debate camp' the last few days so you can be sure she's got all her answers memorized. They might as well give her a teleprompter or an earwig.
On top of that, the format is perfect for memorized sound-bites. 90 second responses to the questions and 2 minute discussions. Sounds like a f...Read more
I would have voted for Obama anyway but the announcement of Sarah Palin as McCain's running mate SCARED the 'hell' out of me.
She's a creationist.
Doesn't believe in global warming.
Doesn't believe in abortion even in the case of rape or incest.

It used to depress me how it seemed that being an actor doomed you to having a terrible personal life. When I'd hear that so-and-so celeb was getting hitched with so-and-so star, my first response would be - how long's that gonna last?

So I was sad to hear that Paul Newman died today.
I respected him for being a movie star who was a fine actor. But even though he won an Oscar for The Color Of Money what I admired most about hi...Read more
It's easy to forget amongst all the glamour of the artists and their work here on AnD, that there are stories other than the latest celebrity gossip. Fortunately, there are a few artists that are telling these stories.
I stumbled across this TVB Pearl documentary today and was pleasantly surprised to find out that my friend, Ben O'Rourke, was the filmmaker behind it. (I must call and have him join AnD. We need more artists that reflect on the human condition.)
I was deeply moved by this little documentary, part...Read more

I've always admired people that are passionate about a cause. Over the years I've donated time and money to various charities and causes but although I've cared about them I've never felt passionate and I've felt a little guilty about it.
But as I've gotten older I've come to realize the cause that really fires me up, angers me and motivates me to action is Human Rights. That's not to say I don't care about anything else, I do. It's just that human rights hits a nerve and I feel it's some...Read more
