Occasionally, it’s been noted that Homer Nods.
Though not quite as ancient, I have nodded myself more often than when I was in
in my prime.
I’ve also had bugs, poltergeists, gremlins, perhaps Kremlin agents in my computer.
Perhaps I should take a leaf from the British media and blame Putin. Because
the results have not always related to what I believed I had put in. Can a man
be made a cuckold by a hacker?
The piece BRIEF ENCOUNTERS, first published in May 1975 in THE IRISH DEMOCRAT
focussed on a meeting with Brendan Behan in 1960, included an account of a
visit to Belfast in 1974 and the BLOG noted the death of Behan’s biographer,
Ulick O’Connor just a couple of weeks ago at the age of 90.
My BLOG “Catholics etc” in 2 parts referred to my response in 1974 to a piece by Peter Kellner and to events over the following 35 years which suggest that even Nostradamus may have nodded sometimes.
Like the Piano Player Oscar Wilde came across in the mining town in Montana, this
BLOGGER is doing his best and I pray you don’t shoot me. I intend to complete
the series “BRITISH FORCES’ NETWORK IN IRELAND” as promised and my
head is buzzing with ideas for further BLOGS.
By the way I warned Ireland’s Rugger Buggers 14 years ago in a letter in THE
IRISH TIMES to dump IRELAND’S CALL and adopt and adapt THE VILLAGE
PEOPLE’S Y-M-C-A and intimidate their opponents with a rendering of
“I-R-F-U” and ended “HAKA BE HANGED!” but the Buggers
didn’t take my advice.
ABNORMAL SERVICE WILL FOLLOW SHORTLY AND CONFOUND THE BEGRUDGERS.
