Finest (only?) cinematic portrayal of a Larouchie in history.

with special reference to greece currently
the question is why, who, why, what, why, when, why and why again?

last night i saw for the third time the absolute comedy genius Daniel Kitson doing his show, 66a Church Road

66A Church Road: A Lament, Made of Memories and Kept in Suitcases is a love story of sorts, that of a man for his rented flat in London's Crystal Palace.

http://www.smh.com.au/news/entertainmen ... 01467.html

the last one i saw again in perth last october was called 'We Are Gathered Here'

and in 2008 i saw 'The Impotent Fury of the Privileged'

all of them are the product of a clearly very intelligent, sensitive man who has a masterful use of the english language, i love of the best in humans and life and a horror at so many aspects of the modern world,
each is a philosophical and questioning journey masquerading as brilliant comedy

from each i have emerged thoughtful, emotional, uplifted and inspired

the question is why, who, why, what, why, when, why and why again?

These guys stayed at my place in melbourne during a tour in 1990.

They were really nice guys, and great company. And somewhere I still have a joint that Phil gave me as they left. Its probably decomposed by now. I always meant to smoke it, then after a couple of years it became the "Juice Pigs Joint" and never got touched.
