The Gonzo Daily - Friday
We truly are living in very strange times. This week an American God
botherer claimed that the world was going to end, and various political pundits
including some surprisingly heavy weight ones were suggesting that Russia’s
involvement in the Syrian conflict, and the rumoured advent of Chinese military
action in the area was heralding a new World War.
There have been changes with this issue of Gonzo Weekly (out tomorrow) and
there will be more changes in the future. I hope that you like the advent of
Paul “Mr Biffo” Rose and Mack Malloney as regular contributors. We are planning
to start streaming another philosophically fortean radio show, this one
presented by my old mate Richard Freeman, via Gonzo web radio in the next few
issues. There are other things in the pipeline, and whilst not all of my plans
will come to fruition, I am sure of that, I am sure that some of them will. And
assuming that the world doesn’t come to an end and that World War three does not
burst upon us like avenging furies of Ancient Greece then I am sure that this
magazine will only get bigger and better.
