>Wag the dog – #490

>

Perfectly good pair of shoes hanging off a sign at the back of the Frankfurter Hof the other.
Wouldn’t have minded then, actually.
Shame I’m such a short-arse…..
“Wag the dog”, by the way, is a classic 1997 film starring De Niro and Hoffmann at the top of their respective games, successfully submerging a sex scandal in the White House (yes, the Lewinski thing was an inspiration…) by having America go to war against Albania. 
In the media.
Involves endless parodies of hysterical patriotic fervour with Willie Nelson writing anthems, “We are the world” type stuf and people slinging shoes over power lines in a post-modern yellow ribbon thing.
See it.
