sydney is expensive now, it's a ridiculous city when coffee costs the same as a loaf of bread. bills rates petrol all just seem out of control. apparently its economics but economics in the modern world is extortion, and the public are being extorted severely by our ruling class. i am re reading the 'list of seven' by mark frost, twin peaks co creator. it's better second time around, and i must admit I'd forgotten a lot of the details. it's a supernatural occult murder mystery with arther conan doyle as the main protagonist, and several founous people of the age making appearances in one form other than the other including madame blavatsky, bram stoker ect.

i decided to re read this as i came across the very rare sequel 'the seven messiahs' which i would like to read next. it's strange how david lynch received most of the credit for twin peaks yet mark frost very little. yet the series could not have worked without mark frosts input. anyways he is a good writer and the tale he tells is great victorian adventure, not without it's humour.
