I always feel slightly depressed by beautiful vistas, you know i mean . Ah, the storybook kingdom of granada. One of the oldest, most complex, magically surreal places in spain. And one of the most beautiful. Granada is tucked against the Sierra Nevada mountains of andalucia in Southern Spain. Its not like barcelona. Its not like saint sebastian. It aint madrid. Any reasonable person who looks at spain, comes to spain, eats in spain, drinks in spain, theyre going to fall in love. Otherwise, theres something deeply wrong with you. Spain is the sort of place that never really made any sense anyway. And in the very best possible way. This is the country that gave us the spanish inquisition. Also anarchy. This is where devout Catholicism Mixes with surrealism, Modernist Cuisine with traditional tapa. Christianity and islam traded places, shared space. The effects of influences of all those things are right here to see. You can almost look back through time and through the mists of history,

commodity, and when you shake the pan looking for the nuggets, when they shine out like that, then you love them forever. people who understood how to be funny, they can be funny anywhere. if there s something strange, in your neighborhood. who you gonna call? ghostbusters! ghostbusters is a rare film because it combines sci-fi, action, and comedy. well, there s something you don t see every day. ghostbusters was written by dan aykroyd with harold ramis. on paper, it shouldn t work. but it does work because you have bill murray and dan aykroyd and rick moranis, and they re flawless. we ve been going about this all wrong. this mr. stay-puft is okay. he s a sailor, he s in new york. we get this guy laid, we won t have any trouble. bill s always explored what it means to escape sort of the constraints of convention. you feel in some way that you want to be as liberated as he
the asians did not invent them. it shouldn t work. it hasn t really worked like this anywhere else, and yet it works. i think that my objection or my discomfort with the lack of democratic freedoms is that i think we can allow a lot more of that without hurting singapore s prosperity and stability one ounce. right. what would we lose if we had a freer press? what would we lose if we had more democratic or opposition representation? and we ll make for not just a more livelier debate, we ll make for a better debate. we may well arrive at the conclusion that the current dispensation, the current order represents the best possible society for singapore, but let s have that debate. i mean, it s a horrifying thought. it s possible that the human mind, that the average citizen cannot deal with that much diversity, that we need these curbs and restrictions on our freedoms.
