Nuts

[Guest]

According to the Today programme on R4 this morning, David Cameron is in a spot of bother with some after using the term 'nuts'. His critics apparently consider the word to be 'insensitive'.

Couldn't that charge be levelled at the use of similar commonly-used words like 'crazy', 'mad'. 'demented' and 'insane'? Will these be next in line for censorship by our self-appointed language police?

Political Correctness gone totally 'nuts', imv.

Very harsh on the ears that. music for hooligans.

I need to recover by listening to JLW's performance of his brother's transcription for cello of Gabriel Faurés Pavane.

the depths of your wisdom are an inspiration.

Did I mention that you should listen to Machine Head at very low volume?
Oh, you already know that .

I would like to hear the UK Subs cover that Faure piece, give it a bit of much needed energy.....

I wonder what a grand piano would sound like if it were pushed off the cliffs of the Grand Canyon ? (in an omage to La Monte ?)

If the musicians were pushed of the cliff, their next CD would be better.
