    Wow Greedo, what an event. That must have been really hard for you to deal with at such a young age, and your parents too. Really scary all round. You were probably braver about the needle at 6 than I was at 38. I was like a wimpering halfwit.

    On another subject, I'm just eating a sandwich of unbuttered home-sliced crusty bread with slabs of cheddar and huge rings of raw white onion. My favourite sandwich and when I eat it I am always struck by a bit of awe at the prospect that I am eating something so unstructured, so primitive in sandwich real-terms that it is possibly the same as the first ever sandwich that was ever made. It just feels like its a seminal piece. It is to sandwiches what Cool Herc is to Hip Hop. The original that spawned an entire genre. In fact from now on a cheese and onion on white crusty, sliced from the loaf wil be known as a Cool Herc in my house.
