Bruce Springsteen helped me but brought me to the edge. The graphic of Lyin' Eyes with 'hangs her head to cry' almost got me there. I can't get there. What is wrong with me?

Regarding what Toonlass said about the negativity the Guardian ran a typically sneering 'it's time to reassess the Eagles' article & you guessed it, it was bad. And most of the comments were horrible. The Guardian is supposed to be the newspaper which reflects my pollitics, but I find more & more it's a self-parody of self-righteous political correctness.

I'm pleased with Rolling Stone's coverage, though. I don't know if we can expect a cover story especially as I imagine there will be a specia issue for Bowie.

The last time two major rock stars died so close together was when Jimi Hendrix died followed by Janis Joplin.

I'm sorry, everyone. I feel unable to communicate my loss to you. I appreciate all your efforts.
