Emily, Diego Garcia and Landing a B52 in Sri Lanka

Ladies first!

Emily, don't you think Diego Garcia's so small?

And that you'd never land on there if it was the last island in the world?

And you'd much rather land a B52 in Sri Lanka?

Saying This Aged Well

Hehhehe this aged well!

Asking Quentin or Tom Leighton for a 9/11 Movie

Wow

What a heroic dude

I asked Quentin / Tom Leighton to make a 10th movie about 9/11

But it's a bit wrong

And they're all, a little afraid of terrorists

Choosing Music Videos From Will to Power to Madonna

A difficult choice for me to make:

Which video to play next?

I like Will Power, it's reminding me of Sheryl and Dave and her Titanic story, of how her heart will go on

I like Lucky, it's about Shanil, who is just like me, and like my big bro, and Rukshi, and how Shanil told me, how both of us, the dads were cut down in their prime, and his dad's name is Lucky

That O Jays song is clearly about Trump

If I

I mean, it's crazy, those people are crazy

They should have licensed it to the Trump people, and MAGA

They would have made millions of dollars in royalties and sales

When Trump ("Mr Trump") comes to SL, we will play it for him

I don't feel like Prince, Bathsheba Yarhi Milo or Elisabeth of Troy

Madonna, sigh

Live to Tell

No to American Boy

I feel sorry about Kanye, they didn't have good friends, the guy spiralled, away from Jay Z, Obama shouldn't have shunned him as a this or that

He's a talented musician, who has a lot of soul, which shines through, and he has probably gotten hurt
