I had forgotten about this strange moment of amusing juxtaposition...

17th July. On the way to GothlaUK, I'm watching the first episode of 'Deadwood', an HBO TV Western, when the (train) conductor speaks.  He advises that someone has been caught smoking near the rear of the train. "If the smoke detectors go off," he states,  "we will have to hold up the train for 40 minutes. Additionally, if you are caught smoking you will be fined and, while we're sitting here for 40 minutes I will point out who you are."

As I look at the cowboys mid-fisticuffs, frozen in the tiny screen of my iPod, I cannot help but think:

Lynch mob!

Yeehaw!

teehee....
