WOW! Quote of the year. Well, we heard it from the man himself--he is humansexual. And like most humansexuals, he is not attracted to all men and all women. He is selective.

I have decided, just now, that I too am humansexual. :p

Autobiography by Morrissey – review by Stuart Maconie - The Observer
Brilliant one minute, petulant the next, Morrissey's autobiography is as maddening as the man himself

Idag fick även moderskeppet fint främmande. En mycket svettig och nervös (läs livrädd) NewGuy-Peter uppbådade allt sitt mod och fick gå hem (läs på krogen) med ett brett leende, signerad skiva och fotobevis. Tack för besöket Moz, välkommen åter! — with Peter Rudvall.
