Some months ago Jeremy recommended The Wire to me, describing it as anthropological. I just finished watching the last episode of the last season, and being an anthropologist myself, I have to agree that this looks pretty much ethnographic. HBO is known for their good shows. Hell, the last piece of TV that I really enjoyed was from them: Six Feet Under . And I just learnt that they released a TV movie not too long ago on the recount of the 2000 presidential elections in Florida. The movie is called Recount and the good Doctor Mark Kermode describes it as really good. By the way, he is the best movie critic.
I guess all I’m saying is that if you want to see one good piece of good TV please let it be The Wire . This has cushioned my landing in Germany; work begins in earnest on Monday. And thanks for this, Jeremy.

Set in Baltimore, it is a police drama like no other. Unique in it’s realism, slow plot, attention to detail and focus on urban life and the problems associated with it, The Wire may be the greatest TV show ever made.
On Thursday Lottie picked up Season 4, the penultimate season and we finished that yesterday. So, naturally, I had no choice but to run down to Xtra-Vision to pick up the final season.... more

Ilorin National Museum on a SaturdayFrom: loomnie.com Post Date: 2008-03-08 06:35:12
While in Ilorin last weekend I asked my friends about the tourist attractions in the city. They told me that there was one museum, which was not opened on a Satruday. Above is a picture of a part of the museum - The Moremi Ajasoro National Museum Hair-Do Centre.
And oh yea, the other important part - perhaps the most important, actually - is the bar in the same compound with the museum. As I learnt, there are normally drummers and singers to sing the praise of the patrons.... more  Eldis Entries on Trade PoliciesFrom: loomnie.com Post Date: 2008-03-07 02:08:37 For a while this blog has had a collections of links at the outer right column.

Ketevan ‘Katie’ Melua is a Georgian-born British musician. She has released two albums.The first one, Call off the Search , was released when she was 19, and Piece by Piece , the second one, was released two years later, in 2005.

This means that I will be having posts on trade on the blog pretty soon. To celebrate my declaration I am drawing attention to a product just newly introduced by Ecobank . The bank has introduced a multi-currency account that can be operated from any of Nigeria, Ghana, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Guinea Bissau, Guinea, Cote d’Ivoire, Cameroun, Burkina Faso, Senegal, ... more
