Rescue Cat Loves Rescue Dog (and CC)

I was struggling with topics to rant about for this blog when I was sent a link which made me re-examine the way I look at life, the unviverse and everything.
Poor doggy gets run over and then his little friend tries to drag him to safety. I can barely type this as my eyes are full of tears...



IN PRAISE OF CLAUDIA CARDINALE

I always like to bring sexy people from the past to your attention. My good friend Darkus (TM) and I are going to see a Western next week called Once Upon A Time In The West by the famous Sergio Leone and I swear the only reason we're both going (forget all that 'wonderful cinematography/stunning landscape/sombre themes of alienation' business) is for the titular talents of Miss Cardinale.
Despite having been in classics like 'The Pink Panther' and Federico Fellini's '8½', Cardinale never made a real attempt to break into the American market since she was not interested in leaving Europe for extended periods of time.
AND HERE'S THE COOL BIT, she has been UNESCO good will ambassador for the Defense of Women's Rights since 1999. In 2006 (World Water Year) she symbolically extended such a role for the Defense of the Rights of the Absolute Woman: Mother Earth while declaring her support for Powerstock, a sustainable electronic music festival that proposes a "water-consciousness" for youth culture and seeks to make sustainability an integral part of mainstream culture. She is involved in many humanitarian causes and currently lives in Paris. AND I LOVE HER.



Oh yeah, music stuff. We've got a gig with 'hot new Warner's signing' Animal Kingdom as part of a secret gig (not so secret now is it?) they're doing at Cross Kings on York Way NEXT WED the 28th Oct. It will be a very busy gig so please come down early, we should be on about 8.30pm. Please CLICK HERE for more info...

CAT FACT NUMBER 18:
The cat's clavicle (or collarbone) does not connect with other bones but is buried in the muscles of the shoulder region. This lack of a functioning collarbone allows them to fit through any opening the size of their head.

Later yeah?
