Keep Aaron Cutting

This has to be one of the most heartwarming stories to come out of the London riots.

Thank you Bjorn, Sophie and Omid, great job. And H/T to Alison on FB.

You have to watch this video of Aaron, 89 years old and a true British character! He even flirts with the lady who is interviewing him.

And, he has fabulous skin! Ladies, be sure to listen to his skin care tips, LOL!

  1. I think I'm a little bit in love with Aaron :)

  2. And if he is still cutting next time I am in London, I will go see him.

    If you can, here is a chance to say "Fuck You" to the spoiled bastards who dared to step over the line.

    And step over the line I think they did. They will never have it so easy again.

  3. If any one needs a translation, let me know! LOL!

    Sometimes he'd say something and it'd take me a while to get it - ripping something off -> "nicked"... etc... but I think I got most of it.

    If I could make an aside - a kind of meta comment - so, I'm here in front of my monitor, about to go to bed after a pretty busy day... and I'm 'sposed to be relaxing... and what do I do? I come here... where we post about teh global crazy... and flowers, Jazz, classic rock, food, that too... but we post quite a bit about teh global crazy (TGC). Relax! Ah...

    I think the thing that makes it relaxing for me is that we do it together, as a group of good friends...

    ...but srsly folks we have one heck of a "hobby"...

  4. Maybe it would be better to sit around a real kitchen table with you all, Lewy, but this is the next best thing. I, too, look forward to "chatting" with you all.

  5. I think I did fairly well on the translation, LOL! He's really a sweetie; I'd like to hug him! I'm delighted that so many people are helping him get back on his feet.

    Lewy and Matt, I also look forward to chatting with you all. This is my tether to sanity after the craziness of my day. You all are my soft place to land, the cattle-prod to my brain when I get complacent or lazy, and a wonderful place to share entertainment, memories, hopes, and dreams. :X

  6. What a charmer, not many like him left in the world!


    I'd be honored to sit with each and every one of you at the table and serve up some Nordic dishes.
