Joan A

M&Bs introduced me to Joan Armatrading. Which just shows how honest to her own taste she is, a great quality in anyone.

I used to spend time pretending to like things because I felt I ought to, and rejecting music, in particular, that didn't fit in with my sonic politics or persona or some bullshit like that.

What an idiot. Happily, that was a short stage.

Anyway, a terrific singer, musician and voice. (And I'll just ignore the lesbians in the first 500 rows.)

Ava says. . .

“I’m one Hollywood star who hasn’t taken an overdose of sleeping pills. I haven’t been in jail, and I don’t go running to the psychiatrist every two minutes. That’s something of an accomplishment these days.”

-Ava Gardner, 1960

Pole dancing in the Olympics

TOKYO -- For Japan's Mai Sato, watching all those gold medals being handed out in Vancouver is a bittersweet experience. Sato knows the demands of being the best. In her world, blisters are the rule, bruises a way of life. And the training -- five hours a day, five days a week.

Sato, the world champion in her sport, is as athletic, dedicated and competitive as the Olympians representing their nations at the games. And she thinks it's high time her discipline, too, got some real recognition.

Still, pole dancing? In the Olympics?
Absolutely, say thousands of pole dancers and the rapidly growing number of international and national federations transforming what was once the exclusive property of strip clubs and cheap bars into a respectable -- and highly athletic -- event.
