"The truce" and "If this is man" by Primo Levi.....
Recently read a book called "Confessions of an econonic hitman" by John Perkins... sordid secrets of a must know nature.
Who I'd like to meet: Aaron Dillon is a Cork-Based Songwriter and performer. Originally from Drogheda he has performed to packed houses in ,The Triskeel,The Everyman Palace Theater and The Opera House.
In 2005 Aaron spent the summer touring Italy and received rave reviews from the Italian music press.
On returning home he has supported many established artists such as Iron & Wine, Mick Flannery and former members of venerated Irish folk legends Planxty.
He has also performed as a guest vocalist(Take it on the chin) and as Harmonica player(In the gutter)on Mick Flannery's debut album "Evening Train".
Having lived and performed in as far off places as Brazil, Sri Lanka,Paraguay,Tanzania,Denmark,The US and Australia helped hone Aaron's unique delivery and stagecraft.
Currently putting together the finishing touches on his eagerly awaited debut album "Brown Envelope" his music has described as Rootsy mix of Traditional and Urban Folk with strong melodies and thought provoking lyrics .Reviewers have described him as a "writer with the lyrical audacity you don't often here amongst Ireland's current crop of Songwriters"& "A writer who writes on subjects that other writers wouldn't dare,with an abundance of poetic flare,humor and sensitivity to back it up".His debut album has just been released to rave reviews... SO keep your eyes peeled and your ears sharpened cause 08 promises to be big year for Aaron Dillon.

Hello to you my friend! My comment is to bring,to debate,issues I feel are very important,concerning the lisbon treaty.Below are a three videos. The first is very short(3 min)and is of an MEP who sees the "Totalitarian nature of this treaty"
The second is a documentary called "The real face of the European Unio" which is very important as it outlines, once again by MEP's,"An unsettleing Agenda" from an EU that is "Rotten to the Core" .. The Third is from a group of Irishmen. "End of Nations". It is an excellent documentary and it outlines the Lisbon treaty in full.Once again interviews with MEP's. Just be prepared to be a little shocked.
.. I'd encourage you to repost this comment If you feel it is of value. I will be posting a bulletin with the details and code of this comment.Press reply to bulletin, copy and paste the message, then repost as a comment.Thanks for taking the time to read this! Baz.....
