Hume is never far from Meades’ lips when he is discussing religion, the subject that, more than any other, seems to incite his anger. “I’m hostile,” he tells me when I ask why this should be so. “I’m not particularly angry. Well, no. It does anger me. What [more]
Ping pong balls? MoL’s lips are sealed. Psalm 119:9 {Magnificent Purity} February 10, 2012; 20 Comments This morning (like before breakfast!) I put a bowl in front of the kids. I told them it was them – their heart and their mind. We began to talk about what [more]

Some Swiss guy has written a semi-literary thriller that is taking the welt by storm, the title of which no one can remember. Set in the US but written in French. He is being touted as the “coolest Swiss export since FED”. Not cool. Back to the drawing [more]
MoL has, it thinks, worked out something interesting about NADA. It’s not the opponent he attacks, it is the ball. The ball is there to be hit away. The opponent is whoever turns up. The ball is always the same. With the others it is different. There is [more]
NADA says: “If there is one thing I have learnt it is to distinguish clearly between Rafa and Rafael. Rafa is the famous tennis player, Rafael, the name they call me at home, is the real one, the one who could have ended up doing something else altogether [more]
Big money and professionalism: diet, training, training diet. Old school football: high-fat diet, drinking clubs, cigarette at half time. Wenger describes Messi as “like a Playstation”. Ian Wright, half in disbelief about Wenger’s early methods, said he was told to eat more broccoli. MoL says they are not [more]
MoL went to the Cohen Bros’ film. Less than meets the eye; more than meets the eye. Nice travelling shots. Good mid-century sofas. Atmospheric narrow corridors. Folksy Aran knits. A laudable but perhaps unintentional message: older people more interesting. MoL says no problem with that. A running Welsh [more]
In Sexual Excitement, Robert Stoller describes the case of a woman attracted to men she sensed as dangerous. “Men with this attribute were dehumanised by her in that her excitement occurred only when she rid them of their individuality and responded to their common characteristic: they were phallic.

A new documentary on Lance Armstrong shows the man excelled in two areas: world-class cyclist and world-class liar, which leaves MoL wondering whether he made up the cancer story. A newspaper article on the film makes out sports champions are nasty aggressive crushers who steamroll other people because [more]
An MoL correspondent SMSs on MoL bemoaning itself too poor for a cocaine habit: Hats off to impoverished and resourceful ketamine users. Gone are the days of Paul Merson. Friend wants to write book called Legless with Gazza. Quite so, says MoL. In that respect, a good cameo [more]
Australian Open Men’s Final NADA v WAWR: NADA making big mistakes for once and WAWR who has never taken a set off him has cruised to one set up. Tennis commentators, mostly more boring than football ones, are excelling themselves. – WAWR’s playing a brand of tennis at [more]
MoL shares David Moyes’s pain. Man Utd gone from a mediocre team that won the league at a canter to a mediocre team stuck in the middle. Someone blogged of last week’s penalty shootout fiasco that it was worse than Terence Trent D’Arby’s second album. Fergie gives his [more]
Today MoL’s gym music (public speakers) included: “In a message to the troubadour, the world don’t love you anymore”; “I like the way you work it out work it out”; “From LA to Africa she makes me wanna oh oh oh oh oh oh oh”. MoL preferred the [more]

As children we were aware from an early age that given half a chance adults abused their power. Add celebrity to the mix and the opportunities are limitless. Throw in a complacent, self-serving bureaucracy and you have Jimmy Savile and the BBC mess. The latest interesting news is [more]
What can I say about life with my grandparents? They’re a pretty normal couple and they’re really nice to me . . . The nicest thing is that they don’t expect too much of me so they can’t possibly be let down. (The Informers by Bret Easton Ellis) [more]
When I was growing up Coca-Cola was the big brand. Although Levis was a brand it wasn’t until Nike that branding got really serious and I remember thinking no one is going to go around in trainers and sportswear. Being keen at games was seen as very uncool. [more]
MoL is having to write something on Charles Bronson. The trouble these days is it has all been said and available on Google. Bronson is interesting because he was one of the first stars to become a global commodity rather than being just a famous Hollywood actor. There [more]
MoL says the BBC is a terrible institution which has been making awful programmes for years and pretending we all like them. It is run by senior executives and middle-management who speak the language of bureaucrats, achieve consensus by committee and replace product with organisation. There are no [more]

How many goals in the history of the world? How many fucks? How many wanks? MoL’s Berlin correspondent calculates that the latter (teenage testosterone) may outnumber the former by maybe as much as 10-1. MoL thinks even 20-1. It’s a lonely business. Heard at a football match, screamed [more]
What is really at stake is one’s image of oneself (J-L Godard, quoted in How German Is It? by Walter Abish)
Hot news. Following MoL’s revelation that Nigella Lawson is really Russell Brand, it reports a sensational drop in ratings for episode two of The Taste, down from 1.8 million to one million, representing an audience share of 4.2 percent, whereas MoL’s Big Balls channel regularly attracts viewers in [more]
With so much choice now, MoL operates a policy of no choice. MoL will watch anything these days, even Nigella’s The Taste. Last week a kid broke down and wept on being rejected and Saint Nigella, for that is what she is, said, “He’s just a child!” and [more]
MoL is so sad these days that it has become a fan of Strictly Come Dancing. It likes the big spangly glitter balls, the silly costumes, the senile presenter, the show-off judges. Strictly Come Dancing is the Alpha Course set to music. Life-changing, life-affirming, touchy-feely, dance your way [more]

MoL asks why can’t DVDs be packaged in the same size boxes as CDs? That way you would need only one kind of shelving. MoL admits to being depressed by the boxed set because it either sits there, useless, after being watched or reproving for not having been [more]
Nigella and the high-Tory scandal. She is a ex-Chancellor’s daughter; her ex-husband Charles Saatchi, whose advertising agency got Thatcher elected. His major art collection; her public cooking, done as music-hall burlesque and sexual innuendo. Beauty and the Beast. The Domestic Goddess. The pointlessness of acquisition. A secretive husband [more]
Who make better goalies, Catholic or Protestant? MoL thinks Protestant. The gatekeepers. Lutheran. More defensive.
Carol had always called me nonchalant, a word I never understood the meaning of, a word I looked up in a number of French dictionaries and could never find. I always suspected Jamie and Carol had done something but since I never really liked Carol that much (only [more]
MoL shares Big Sam’s pain. West Ham in free fall. One tabloid dubbed Allardyce, “The duffer in the puffer.” He’s an experienced football manager, say his backers but talk on the terraces is of Will Self being brought in to manage West Ham, in accordance with an FA [more]

Hitler has only got one ball Goering has two but very small Himmler is somewhat similar and poor old Goebbels has no balls at all (British army marching song)
MoL went to see American Hustle. Excuse me, did we walk into the wrong movie? Mind you, they all say the same thing, the director, the actors, the critics, talking it up in smart ways, as though everything were a foregone conclusion. Screwball Scorsese! Wise guys! Scams! Seventies [more]
MoL salutes world’s most exciting newspaper headline (Evening Standard, 7 January, 2014): Duke of Cambridge goes to Cambridge
Snookered. The distribution of an opponent’s balls leaves a player in a position where only an indirect shot can be played. Pocket billiards: playing with one’s testicles via trouser pockets.

It’s a square square world: digital; containers; big sheds; terminal architecture. Is the age of the sphere passing? MoL asks how long before FIFA introduces the square football? How long before we say, “See you asquare”? The World the Box Made: On April 26, 1956, a crane lifted [more]
Re the Ashes whitewash (5-0 to Australia) and death by cricket, MoL offers the following: Q. Have you seen Zidane? The movie? A. It’s really good. Because most of the time he isn’t actually doing anything, he’s just waiting for the event. That’s what I love about cricket. [more]
Helmut Costard (after Wikipedia translated the page into English) 1968 saw Costard a scandal on the International Short Film Festival in Oberhausen: His film Especially Valuable was a talking penis, which quotes a passage of the (then newly adopted) film funding law.

Sweepers versus cleaners. Mesut Özil is paid £180,000 a week by Arsenal, while its ground staff get £6.31 for an hour’s work, so an Arsenal cleaner (of the corridor of uncertainty) will take until 2026 to earn what Özil takes home in a week; and the cleaner does [more]
MoL endorses the following slogan: be stupid. “Is it dumb enough?” Phil Spector asked Sonny Bono as they listened to a playback of Da Doo Ron Ron one day in March 1963.
MoL does not endorse the following slogans: it could be you (MoL would rather not) think small (don’t think) I am what I am (MoL is never what it is) just do it (don’t) impossible is nothing (wrong) success it’s a mind game (failure more interesting) make believe [more]
Well, lottery balls of course. MoL predicts the following numbers for the UK Euro Millions: 1 2 3 4 5 (Lucky Star numbers: 6 and 7). You know it makes sense. MoL predicts Arsenal 0 Bayern minus 1; Bayern 33 Arsenal 31 after penalty shootouts. Call Ladbrokes now!
