I thought the theme of Stephen Foster’s “Beautiful Dreamer” sounded rather like a theme in the 1st movement of Brahms’ 2nd Symphony but then I discovered that Foster wrote his song in 1864 & Brahms wrote his symphony in 1877. #TalisEstVita

With people right, left and centre popping off at 86, which, incidentally, was Sir Alec Guinness’s age when he died in 2000, I suppose I’d better watch my step as I steer towards 84. (Sings) #TheresAParrotOnMyShoulderAndASkyOfBlueAbove

“A stupid person can make only certain, limited types of errors; the mistakes open to a clever fellow are far broader. But to the one who knows how smart he is compared to everyone else, the possibilities for true idiocy are boundless.” ~ Steven Brust (‘Iorich’)

Good morning from Gaza ✌️. This is my son Imad. He is about to go to school to learn. He told me, “Take a picture of me and post it on Twitter so the world and children around the world can see that we are just like other children. We love learning, and we want to live in safety.” 💔

Last week I was in Cuba. We bore witness to the impacts of the over six decades long U.S. blockade and siege on the people of Cuba. We brought donated medical supplies, medications, and other essential items but this is not a sustainable solution. The people of Cuba are struggling immensely. There is a dire lack of energy and fuel, leading to blackouts and water shortages. Food costs are high, people can’t afford to feed their families. Medication is unavailable or on extremely short supply. This blockade maintained by the U.S. must end. Today there was a United Nations resolution on condemning the economic embargo imposed on Cuba. Canada must do more to support the people of Cuba as they continue to suffer the consequences of Western imperialism and interference with their sovereignty, independence, and self-determination. Let Cuba live! 🇨🇺
