wuwu-

i think there's been some kind of terrible mistake.

yusef islam is more than welcome in my home.
he's my favorite artist.

i didn't agree with his alleged statement about
salmon rushdie. but what's one disagreement out of
a thousand? i didn't like merle haggard's "fightin'
side of me" or "okie from muskogee" either but we're
still great buds. he's a great artist and a courageous
individualist.

speaking of great buds, didn't something like this
happen with john lennon back during the nixon regime?

YUSUF ISLAM SPEAKS OUT AGAINST THE HORRIFIC BESLAN SCHOOL SIEGE AND ITS BRUTAL ENDING
"Nothing is more precious to a parent than the love of their offspring, but for the parents of Beslan we can only share the tears and convey our deepest sympathies, though no words or effort could ever bring those children back into the violent world they so tragically left behind. There is no vocabulary fit to describe the gruesome cruelty of this event; watching helplessly as hundreds of children were mercilessly utilized as negotiating tokens in a political game, which they had absolutely nothing to do with, makes us ponder what kind of inhumane mentality the perpetrators had."

catstevens.com is not working tonight either.

i want my friend back.

i think there's been some kind of terrible mistake.
