Poets and artists are all useless.

I hope babi dies horribly. Its his fate.

I don't believe in fate but thanks for your constructive comment anyway

such a clever man. I saw his play Everything Must Go and saw him live at the Manic Millennium gig. His album is fantastic.

Very nice man. With important things to say.
