back to a turbulent world

Back after a gap caused by boredom, work and attendance at the world cup.

Also trying a new mobile posting solution to allow composition on the move, or indeed in the pub while barely moving at all.

Lots to think about including a disastrous war in Lebanon that threatens to knock one of the Weasel's favourite places back to the civil war levels of destruction, well at least as far as major engineering is concerned.

Hopefully they're able to avoid all out, or worse civil, war, despite that appearing to be at least one of Israel's apparent aims.

While innocence and guilt are never as black and white as either side would like us to believe all we can do is try to get all the facts straight make our opinions known and be sensitive to those under attack.

So while skimming the spoof Daily Planet insert in 7days (and others) designed to promote the upcoming Superman movie, the Weasel was appalled to see that one of the 'sightings' of superman was on July 15 in downtown Beirut, complete with picture of 4 happy girls staring at a delta winged dot in the sky ....is it a bird? Is it a plane........(cue loud descending whistle).

Surely not beyond the realms of possibility to pull the ad or at the least change the location of that image, come on, the shooting started 4 days ago.
