If law and order eventually breaks down then you are going to need your wits about you.

Check out Haiti and it’s failed state, gang culture, sex crimes and robbery and starvation styles.

My god, I don’t think they’re having pub quizzes down there right now. Who knows? Maybe in some forgotten basement of Port-Au-Prince, trivia people are secretly convening and trying to remember which James Bond film is which or getting their Baltic capitals mixed up.

What is potassium anyway? Is it a metal?

These are the kinds of mental exercises that’ll keep you going in the apocalypse.

That is, when you’re not trying to avoid murder and starvation.

Give thanks that “broken” as our country is (or as we are constantly told), then at least we can still go to the pub and have a quiz.

Get it while you can, I reckon, before the capitalists leave us to fight over the scraps when they take off to a mystery balloon island in the Pacific, or whatever it is they have planned.

Music Round Clue for West Port Oracle tonight:

This is ALICE COOPER and a slightly unusual song for the 70s entertainer, usually known as a shock-rocker. This one is a soft-rock examination of domestic abuse. One of the comments on YouTube says “This song got me through a horrible marriage and gave me the courage to leave.”
