Haven't checked this thread for a while - theres a lot going on here. Joseph, I see what you mean about America/England not being what it used to, and I wouldn't have to travel as far as London to find a Mc Donalds. London is like another country to me and I avoid it as much as possible.

What I would say is that I live in one of the smaller cities in England (Hereford) and apart from the few Mc Donald style shops etc that have sprung up in the last 2 decades, this place is the same as it was 50 years ago. On my street people live in the same houses as their great grand parents did. The pubs are like something out of a war movie. I guess things are changing, but not everywhere is 100% capitalised yet.

I understand that we have a few things here, that we haven't built over.....yet, like the Grand Canyon and such, but not everyone is into hiking and rock climbing when they travel. They are currently thinking about a total rehabilitation of New Orleans(my home town) which will be a crying shame. It was one of the few cities in the US that made you feel like you were in another country. If it is updated to another plastic no- character style American city, I shall never return. They did the same thing to Las Vegas. back in the 70's when I used to go there, it was seedy, tacky and adult-oriented and dangerous. Sin-City. Everything you expected from a city founded by gangsters. That is why you went. For the adreneline rush, the thrill. Now, it's just another Disneyland. I've never been back since.

'I keep spotting English actors more and more in US telly, Hugh Lauie in House,'
Im glad you mentioned House Tracey it is one of my faves and my daughter loves it too, something we love to watch together.
The thing is the basic storyline is same every time, sick person on verge of dying with some obscure illness, and only House solves the problem. They go through the same procedures, almost the same dialogue when in conference diagnosing the poor soul.
I know the rest of the storyline is about the evolving of the permanant characters and their interaction; but I think its magic. ( maybe we are being hynotised to watch; with invisible messages to the naked eye hidden in the images and script)

I dont know what the magnetism is I make a point to watch it; even to the degree I have watched several repeats.

If I knew the secret I would bottle it,
Sell it, Make a fortune, and sail away into the sunset.

i turned on to this a few monbths ago and lately my conscience demands i share the link. (especially with my american voodoo-brothers and sisters).

artists are the seers and shamans of our time. the real and only "agents of change" as recent politico-speak would say it.

if we don't do something, no one else will. . .

I sold a painting yesterday(thru Craigslist). First one I've sold in a very loooooooooooooong time. I sold it for a couple hundred less than what I was asking, but I still made a decent profit. As a matter of fact, the painting is one of the pieces I have featured here "Power Broker"(the man with the head of an ocelot,or whatever it is, been a long time since I painted it). Anyway, one less piece on the pile(unfortunately, it was one of my smaller paintings, I still have a 4' x 8' monstrosity to sell). So the drinks are on me today! Cheers!

Well, I took some of my profit, and gave my computer an enema. I had a nasty virus for the past 2 1/2 months, which explains why I've only been here at certain times. Adware and spyware would come up every night like clockwork, and drill me a new one. The past month, I haven't been able to back anything up, so things have been piling up like crazy. A techie came in, downloaded Vista, and I'm state of the art, now. Lets see how long it takes me to screw it all up again. And I will screw it all up again, I promise. I have to track down a few links and try to remember a LOT of passwords. There is always fun stuff to do in Internetland. Lalalalalala LOL
