Heil Hitler.
Last night was fucking stupendous. We had the De Luxe Parrillada: the steaks were epic, the black pudding utterly sensational and the chimichurri as splendid as ever. The Argie sausages, whilst very good, are kind of pointless in the overall scheme and could easily be left off. We had a stupendous bottle of Malbec and large Hennessys in place of a pudding. If you find yourself in London with a spare wad of cash and are hungry you could do a lot worse than to go to Buen Ayre on Broadway Market, E8. Of course if you are a vegetarian or a bumlord this is not the place for you.

Today I feel a little sick and exactly like a fucking fat bastard.

The Roots's ?uestlove states in the paper that Public Enemy were the Sex Pistols of their day. Do you agree?

Alt: Nommy zombies, kittums, Egypt blah blah fucking blah.

I could name 100 late 80s hip hop acts that I consider to be way better than them.

Chuck D is a monotone, whinging dullard with little in the way of finesse or style that appeals to me. Their beats were brilliant and Flavor Flav a great showman.

Although I do concur. I'm surprised that you're not a Chuck D fan. Purely out of interest, which MCs do you particularly rate? Obviously you are aware that the answer "Puff Daddy" will be met with the internet taking out a restraining order against you.
