I will be spending the next three to four months in Kigali. I love to read and would like to take some books with me as well as download several on to my kindle. Any favorites out there? I have a few pertaining to the Genocide. And of course, Gorillas in the mist. Any gems that come to mind? If not, I would take suggestions from any other country in Africa. Thanks!

The Cohen bros. have done it again! Watched it at the cinema last night - nice to see them back in form, as frankly I wasn't that impressed by Burn After Reading. (No Country..., on the other hand, must range as one of the best films of
the decade) What an eccentric, weird and absolutely lovely movie! Hopefully they will keep entertaining us for years to come.

Always been a big fan. It doesn't get much sweeter than this . Thing is, looking back on this clip of James Taylor and J. D. Souther you gotta wonder about the amount of inspirational pharmaceuticals consumed prior to laying down this little number. Enjoy.

Have ye noticed that everyone is famous?
I've not heard of most so-called famous people. I've looked them up a few times and they are in, for example, soap operas I've not heard of; or football teams; or are married to someone I've never heard of who is presumed famous.
Oh, to be 'famous'!

"The governing body of world football will have to step up to the plate and accede to our call for a replay" says the chief of Irish football". Stepping up to the plate is something done only in baseball as far as I know. I was surprised to hear the words from an Irishman, particularly in a soccer controversy. Are such Americanisms common in Ireland? Is it the wide influence of American television and movies that is responsible?
