Rethinking Silence

27.05.2011

I enjoyed reading yesterday’s Independent’s editorial (Period of silence silent no more) on the “cheap flight” to Malta. Michael Carabott describes the pre-electoral period of silence as being “as useful as a chocolate teapot”. The Editor’s take is split between the uselessness of the “silence” itself and the manner in which it is apparently ignored [...]

A Mullah's Apologia

25.05.2011

The persons behind Divorzistan sent J’accuse this letter which they are describing as “the CounterPastoral of the Mullah”. Thanks to Divorzistan (among others), the weak Maltese thread of satire has found a new lease of life and in some instances a new form of expression well beyond the accepted frontiers that were the goalposts until [...]

The Big Kahuna Commandment

20.05.2011

And like Moses from Sinai J’accuse descends upon the flock of idolators and worshippers alike bearing the guidelines from the Temple of Reason and House of Mankind. Verily I say to you that no bigger commandment than this must be borne in mind at the moment of truth when you sit in the cabin and [...]

When the dust has settled (I)

19.05.2011

I still have to watch Reno Bugeja’s program that aired yesterday and dealt with the aftermath of the referendum but I do think that we can begin to draw conclusions on the effect of the Great Divorce Debate on society as well as on the Maltese corner of the ether. As the referendum results are [...]

Flights Can Vote

16.05.2011
