The stuff in this book is not dated.It is not annotated – and there has been no attempt to put it into any historical or socio-political context.Why?Precisely because the vast majority of this stuff is lightweight, hopefully easy to read, and hopefully entertaining. It is a mixture of editorials, some book reviews, and a few feature articles, which have been taken almost at random from stuff that I wrote between 2013 – 2016 in a magazine called Gonzo Weekly, of which I am the founding editor.If I may quote, somewhat out of context,  Mark Twain:“Persons attempting to find a motive in this narrative will be prosecuted;persons attempting to find a moral in it will be banished;persons attempting to find a plot in it will be shot.BY ORDER OF THE AUTHOR per G.G., CHIEF OF ORDNANCE”.To which I shall only add that  I hope that it affords you some little amusement.Hail Eris.Love and peace.Jon Downes.
