Commentators have recently compared singer Amy Winehouse and husband Blake Fielder-Civil to dead junkies Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen.
This misses one important point. Both Vicious and Spungen were talentless wastes of space. Amy Winehouse is a remarkably talented young lady - only her skanky husband is the waste of space.
Memo to Sunday Mirror's "distinctive new voice" Fiona McIntosh: It's Fielder-Civil, not Civil-Fielder as you wrote in your debut column.
This is my second blog and it includes anything that want to sound off about - politics, humour, sport, television, films, newspapers, books, etc, etc. The first blog http://pauldonnelley.blogspot.com is purely about politics. Enjoy - and your feedback is always appreciated.

Talking about MY generation
In the pantheon of rock'n'roll there are some incredible moments: Jimi Hendrix setting fire to his guitar, Keith Moon driving a Rolls Royce into a swimming pool, Jim Morrison exposing himself on stage to name but three that immediately spring to mind.
On Tuesday night the Rolling Stones played the Millennium Dome. During the course of the gig Keith Richards lit a cigarette on stage, followed by Ron Wood.
A member of the audience said, "It was a great rock'n'roll moment."
No, it wasn't it was a man who is a year short of being a pensioner lighting a fag. If whichever idiot who made the quote really does think that was a great rock'n'roll moment, he needs to get out more or stay in and read more books about the history of rock'n'roll.
