Valley of the Trolley Dollies

“You’ll never write a good book until you’ve written a few bad ones.”

Bernard Shaw providing solace to, at least, this struggling writer

Of late, have been very much enjoying Enright’s prize-winning “The gathering,” a very Irish, very Beckettian novel in which nothing - least of all ancient secrets - is ever truly dead; “The Simpsons Movie” and “Die Hard 4.0″ which are neither very Irish nor Beckettian (though Sam would have loved them)

. Also being loved - the endless shame! - is the new Jennifer Lopez Britney and Backstreet Boys albums.
And all that when I thought I’d finally become a grown up.

Less enjoyable is the new Annie Lennox cd, which is the sort of music grown ups make and love. And,really, who needs that?

Helli you! Am blogging via blackberry. Let’s see how it goes.
