Last night, Joe Bones became a father. He has undertaken to devote his entire life toward proving that a rock and roll lifestyle is compatible with responsible fatherhood.

William the Bear

They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
  They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
  And add some extra, just for you.

But they were fucked up in their turn
  By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
  And half at one another's throats.

Back to racks and beer etc. in a couple of days…….
