A truly dreadful set of Tina Fey last month and an equally bland set of Cate Blanchett this month. They used to be the standard for photo journalism - managing to capture the very essence of subjects. Almost cancelled my subscription after the Fey collection. Tres disappointing.marleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03948614473875482486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38548109.post-78635651365888082502009-01-25T20:57:00.000+00:002009-01-25T20:57:00.000+00:00"Rumpled visage"?

There's something not quite right about that image, isn't there - as if you'd stuck your nose and lips on messily, which I doubt is quite what the writer intended.Archie_Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04582569974503175543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38548109.post-50701855867950920482009-01-25T16:11:00.000+00:002009-01-25T16:11:00.000+00:00This comment has been removed by the author.Mikeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09639836396121576665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38548109.post-26381455150172262892009-01-25T13:59:00.000+00:002009-01-25T13:59:00.000+00:00'Grumpy Old Man' is good, but I look at it another...'Grumpy Old Man' is good, but I look at it another way.

Not a big screen, in the cinematic sense, but, just more than a few pages of A4 scattered about the place. I have only recently started blogging for this very reason, it's just a more up to date version of the daily diary I wrote back in '82 (hopefully not as embarrassing)<BR/><BR/>The age thing always travels with you. When you are 16, 21 seems old - my present 42 would have seen me already in the morgue awaiting a pine box.

That you didn't, whilst also drawing attention to a clear fault, was restrained. <BR/>Clive James thinks that language slips and slides into poor health with age, as the rest of us do. But there is no reason for it to do so, as long as people who know pass on their knowledge. Only in totalitarian extremism would people be afraid to point out errors. And that ain't where we are at.Andre Carlos Raposahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03505003184440024971noreply@blogger.com
