Out there

Here are some of the things I've enjoyed in the last couple of days.

• Paul Anderson posted a couple of great blues videos from YouTube.
• The Bristol Blogger on the strange death of anarchist England (on the BNP and Indymedia)
• Jonathan Freedland finds reasons to be optimistic about the Ehud Olmert debacle
• Hak Mao on Scottish so-called socialists
• A good old lefty joke at Red Left Review

Added at the end of a long Friday afternoon:

• Chris D re-assures us that mid-life crises are the beginnings of true knowledge (with quotes from Adam Smith to prove it). So that's OK then. Have a good weekend
