You can tell that Patrick Stewart's lobster photo was taken in NYC . . . that's the official NYC bathroom tile, installed in every apartment building in the city (in the 70 years since they switched from the previous official hexagonal grey tiles.)

To be fair, it really is no fun stoning somebody, if the damned muslins got to him first.

Good luck getting Exxon-Mobil to boycott the Sultan's oil -- if it's a penny a barrel cheaper than the next guy's oil, they'll buy it, no matter how much human blood is spattered on it.

Isn't the Sultan of Brunei the fellow with 36 Rolls Royces? And we think boycotting his hotels will achieve what, now?

The spectacle of a bunch of well-meaning Hollywood prats righteously proclaiming that they will not stay at one $500/night hotel but will instead stay at another $500/hotel makes me a little queasy. I mean, what sort of nice folks do we think own the Mandarin Oriental and the Four Seasons?

It's a pity the Central African Republic doesn't own any luxury hotel chains. I guess we'll just have to keep ignoring what's going on there.

But Mark Knopfler tours with his solo stuff all the time. I really don't think he misses the "superstar" days. And by god, that man can play the guitar.
