I don't give a damn what other people think. It's entirely their own business. I'm not writing for other people.

Hurriedly scribbled by Dave Weeden @ 4:23 pm

Not to be confused with the Today programme’s Thought for the day.

If the United States alone can find $700 billion to save Wall Street, why can’t the world find $25 billion to save 20,000 children who die each day? Makes you think, doesn’t it?

Bono, paraphrased by Raina al Abdullah. And I only read her blog because Lance Armstrong got a mention!

Disclaimer

This is a blog. Where it says “hurriedly scribbled,” it means just that. These views are not necessarily my considered opinions. Think of them as velleities and lemmas.

However, and this more an admission of shameless vanity than a point of principle, if you’re thinking of lifting some feculent post here and publishing it on a site which requires subscription, or in one of those newspapers or magazines we bloggers have heard terrible tales of, I strongly suggest that you a) be so gracious as to inform me (email address below) and b) consider a large offering to a good cause.
