Bill Sykes' Newsletter
from America.
(September 2005)
An ex-Brit gives his views - (without
fear or favor) - of the American Scene
Last
Word:
 I consider that it is about time that the United
States Government made more money available for the protection
of its own borders, (especially the border with Mexico
which is very vulnerable to infiltration by terrorist
factions wanting to enter the country illegally - up
to 1000 or more illegal aliens cross the border each
day), instead of spending our hard earned dollars interfering
in Middle East sovereign states affairs in the guise
of promoting democracy in Muslim countries which never
did have democracy and never will fully embrace American
type democracy.
Some good news. The American Public Broadcasting System,
(PBS), intends to introduce in 2006 a six-part series
of Monty Python’s Personal Best. It is intended
to be a blend of old and new material and will devote
one episode to each member of the original six-man troop.
The five living members, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry
Gilliam, Michael Palin and Terry Jones, will each produce
and write their own episode and all five will collaborate
on the sixth episode. As a bonus PBS will also air all
forty-seven episodes of Monty Python’s Flying Circus
starting in the spring of next year. I can’t wait.
Disclaimer:
Some of the information
gathered for this newsletter is gleaned from American
and International media sources, (including the Internet),
and as such is quoted as accurately as possible. I try
to obtain confirmation n on each subject from several
outlets, so the text is a mixture of composite news items
and personal comments and therefore the reader must make
his/her own judgement as to the reliability and degree
of accuracy of the subjects discussed.
