RE: Pro or Anti War Pigs?

When I heard the news about Ozzy, my first thought was I'm shocked he lasted this long. Then I was sad, but he had a good run for someone who lived as hard as he did.

I didn't know about his stance on Israel. Shame. I can easily believe he didn't pay much attention to it and just did what Sharon said. But who knows. Shame, anyway.

It's always a shame when that happens. Not a singer, but Christopher Hitchens was a Marxist when he was young and was very anti-Vietnam, but turned to a very vocal supported of the Iraq war. Or Neil Young who wrote one of the most famous anti-war songs in modern music but who turned around and supported the Iraq war. Then there was Bono who was anti-war and anti-violence but who supported the Iraq war and who was pals with both Bush and Blair.

Oh well. Separate the art from the artist. No heroes, eh? If you meet the Buddha, kill the Buddha.

Anyway, I drank to Ozzy. No old records here to play, but I listened on streaming for awhile.
