Good Afternoon to You

Whatever happens, my Friend,

I'll always think of you kindly.

To YOU

So far, yet so near

Micro-poem above, added article [update] and photos are all by me, as usual.

Below, picture taken this afternoon: one of my favourite spots in my dear Parisian park.

[Update on the same day - evening in Paris, France - afternoon in Chicago, Illinois]

So, just after posting my message, I took a look at Morrissey Central and I found this post. I do love all the great vaudeville and slapstick comedians from the silent film era (Laurel and Hardy, Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd) but I have always had a soft spot for Buster Keaton because of his originality, his talent and also his very strange face and his intriguing, soulful eyes. Moreover, Keaton's own personal life, falling from success to distress, then rising from self-destruction to resurrection, is particularly moving, and the unexpected happy ending is something he really deserved: despite all the bad things that happened to him, Buster Keaton stayed the same kind person.

Thanks to George Rae for the choice for his new fan made video.]

It is tea time in Chicago now, while in Paris it is already time for some herbal tea.

The US leg of Morrissey's 2026 tour starts tomorrow, and tomorrow is now.
