At the risk of sounding like Ann Coulter... WHAT IS UP WITH THESE FANATICAL ISLAMISTS??? Fanaticism at its worst. Innocent civilians are beheaded and the Muslim world says squat. But let a cartoon be print in a Danish newspaper (boy I bet those never-get-in-trouble Danes are reeling...) and they all go wild-savage beszerk. Following SKY News in London, I went out and bought some ham -- a specially selected cut of Danish pork leg....
London is a terrifically fun and vibrant city -- one in which you can people watch all day. And with the advent of dental hygiene in the U.K., the Brits are markedly better looking these days. One also sees new signs of a quickly changing world: steel enforced barriers around buildings, beefed up security at subway stations, security checks to get on the London eye, and of course cameras on every corner.
Movie Recommendation: Matchpoint. One of Woody Allen's best films yet. That said you would hardly know it was a Woody film given that he finally leaves the confines of NYC. Surely part of the attraction to the movie was that a good chunk of the movie was filmed within a stone's throw of the apartment here in London. That aside, Woody Allen's exploration of lust, love, and life is brilliant.
