  Guns 'n Roses


A few months ago I read a brilliant article in the FT magazine which compared the insults traded between the erudite contributors of The New York Review of Books with the dissing which rap artists love to indulge in. I think it was called The Egos have Landed.

While new blogger Vlad thinks that Kenneth Wain and Jojo Mifsud Bonnici having a scrap about Natural Law and constitutional entrenchment is a pretty pathetic spectacle, I prefer to see this sort of exchange as a fairly healthy type of debate in Xarabankland.

But I must admit that I did have visions of Wain rushing on stage (sporting a bandana and kilt) screaming "Whaz so natural 'bout law anyway?". To which Jojo (draped in Maltese flag) would reply "Get in the ring, mother f***** and I'll kick your bitchy little ass!"

Comments:
In their own way, Jojo and Wain have nothing to envy of the average guest on Jerry Springer. My hope is that in the next round, Jojo will smash a metaphorical chair over Wain's head, and that Wain will literarily confess to being a woman.
