WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KILL A COP?
Don't act all offended, just open your mind and read this article, because - all things considered - it asks a difficult question that I have a sinking feeling more and more of us are going to be forced to contemplate in the very near future.

NEW MUSIC BY YER OLD PAL JERKY
Go play with this wonderful online musical toy. I created a piece of music called Entelechy by drawing a border-filling swastika. The resulting repetitive tones are quite soothing.

BASIL PAPADEMOS READS FROM HIS FORTHCOMING NOVEL, MOUNT ROYAL
Many of you Diasporans have been enjoying Basil Papademos's gritty/funky/hilarious revelations about his part-time gig as a chauffeur/bodyguard/babysitter to one of the Big Smoke's finer escort services (check out the DDD archives for a few choice examples and links to further information).
Well, Basil also happens to be the finest prose stylist whom yer old pal Jerky has the privilege of being able to call a friend. His latest novel, Mount Royal, is coming out soon, and it promises to be a scorcher. Check out this page for more information.
Quite enjoying the feedback you people have given his earlier efforts here, Basil asked me would I mind posting a series of videos he shot at the behest of his publisher, and with the able assistance of another one of yer old pal Jerky's trusted real-life cronies, the immortal Mel Rosedale. "Would I mind?!" I replied. "Free content for my stale, moribund site? And excellent content at that? Bring it on!"
And so, without further ado, here are three readings from Basil Papademos' upcoming novel, Mount Royal. Take it away, Baz!

ERYKAH BADU CHANNELS ALEJANDRO JODOROWSKY
Pop singer Erykah Badu is making waves with her excellent new video, Window Seat, for which she disrobed in a public space and was issued a ticket for disturbing the peace for her efforts. I knew she was up to something special when I saw promotional material for her latest CD in which she was decked out as the Alchemist's Assistant from Alejandro Jodorowsky's mythopoeic masterpiece The Holy Mountain (1973).
Here's that video:
