And I'll Shoot My Bloody Mouth Off Telling You Good Folks Just What I've Seen

Was Phil Schneider telling the truth? That's not my job. You figure that our for yourself. 

He was however suicided not long after hitting the lecture circuit.

Why Did Queen Elizabeth's Private Secretary Lie About His Location When Diana Was Murdered?

Tony Blair's Director of Communications Alistair Campbell kindly reminded me that the Queen's principal private secretary at the time of Diana's death was at work in Buckingham Palace. My question to Sir Robert Fellowes (mysteriously awarded a peerage after executing his duties for the Royal Family) is why did he lie that he was on vacation during the period of and just after Diana's murder? 

It's a simple question and will require more lies to answer which suits me just fine. His name is now Baron Robert Fellowes and I want to know what he has to hide.

Update, the 2006 drama The Queen makes a glaring mistake about Robin Janvrin's role during this episode drawing attention to his actions in a none to subtle way.

Young Christopher Hitchens

Nobody has been more critical of the late Christopher Hitchens post 9/11 about-turn and support of the Zionist and Neconservative war for Pentagon-profits than I. However the young Hitchens was sharp as a razor, erudite, pleasant on the eye, wonderful on the ear and not without the kind of humour that has to be suppressed or it laughs at the volume of ridiculous things it is compelled to listen to; particularly on TV phone in programmes. He was a very cool dude.

I regret that the late C.H. felt more upset about God killing the Malachites than the Pentagon killing a million Iraqis [plus plus] but there's hours and hours of rewarding listening and particularly his interviews with the great Brian Lamb of C-SPAN. Just brilliant.

It's such a pity that C.H. couldn't entertain the notion that 9/11 was not the conspiracy theory that a man in a cave brought down the United States but then many intelligent people are incapable of having that rational discussion. Mostly professional journalists and writers I might add.

As a final compliment I might add that Hitchen's war on religion is the greatest work of his later life and there really is no need to listen to the Jews, Christians and Muslims talking such rot. Just skip to Hitch laying it out nice and neat. The way I like it.
