Do you like gospel music?

The weather recently has been pretty unpleasant. Nowhere near as ugly as August 2005 but still… not as hot as August 2004. Tuesday evening, we suffered what seemed to be a miny hurricane here in Cerdanyola with my terrace (and maria plants) seemingly constantly on the edge of the eye (or whatever the very worst part of the storm actually is).

Regular visitors may have noticed some changes to the design of the site. During the quiet August period, I've been experimenting with a number of different designs including the 'three column, red banner' style you see currently. The present design is, essentially, a shift to a 1024×800 resolution… meaning that users with older monitors may not be able to view the page correctly. The white on red design is based on the 'old' thebadrash site. The current quote below the site name, 'If you can't beat 'em, bite 'em' is from a song by Weird War detailing just how to struggle against authority. The design is based on being able to change the quote from time to time.

The big debate this month has been over my treatment of the 'NGO', Solidaridad Española Con Cuba. The founder of this company took a disliking to my linking him with US propaganda firm, The Rendon Group (and, by proxy, with the CIA), despite this being clearly stated on his CV. He also took offence when I claimed that he was 'an idiot' who 'sounds like a prick'. Life's hard, Ricardo.

Gemma and I have booked our honeymoon for this October. We're off to Thailand. Good times, good times.
