I was enamored of John the Mule before I ever rode him. He helped my friend regain her confidence in riding after a very bad spill from a horse. He has carried men, women, and children over hundreds of miles of trails. He is as sweet as he is sensible- he loves treats, but he is so gentle that you must place the treat in his mouth. This weekend, I had the privilege of riding him on the trails. He is the Energizer Bunny of equids! He has a remarkably efficient and speedy walk that can outlast a horse- he's gaited so he also can do a nice running walk. He is nimble and careful on the trail. Three cheers for John!

Né en 1950 à la Rivière noire, à Maurice, sa carrière décolle en 1975 avec son premier 45 tours, "Missié Coutou", qui fait un tabac au concours du Disque de l'année de la MBC (Mauritius Broadcasting Corporation). Trois ans plus tard, le chanteur sort sa première cassette intitulée "Fler de la rose". La vogue de ses chansons aidant, il se lance dans le créneau du cabaret d'hôtel. Il tiendra une année, de 1985 à 1986, avant de mettre le cap pour l'Italie et la France. Là-bas, John Kenneth Nelson tente sa chance en faisant la tournée des boîtes à Rome, Milan, Turin, Naples, San Remo, la Côte d'Azur, Nice, Cannes, Saint-Tropez et Monaco. De son escapade européenne, John Kenneth Nelson conservait des souvenirs amusés de sa rencontre avec la Cicciolina et son passage sur la RAI, chaîne de télévision italienne. De retour au pays en 1993, il est employé comme conseiller culturel au ministère des Arts et de la Culture. Il y restera jusqu'en 2000. Son dernier album, "Makatia Coco", hommage aux boulangers et pâtissiers, sort en 2003. Il décède d'un cancer en janvier 2006. Il était de mes amis.
Born in 1950 in the Black River, Mauritius, his career took off in 1975 with his first single, "Missié Coutou", which was a hit in the MBC (Mauritius Broadcasting Corporation) Record of the Year contest. Three years later, the singer released his first cassette entitled "Fler de la rose". The popularity of his songs helping, he launched into the hotel cabaret niche. It will last a year, from 1985 to 1986, before heading for Italy and France. There, John Kenneth Nelson tries his luck by touring clubs in Rome, Milan, Turin, Naples, San Remo, the French Riviera, Nice, Cannes, Saint-Tropez and Monaco. From his European getaway, John Kenneth Nelson kept amused memories of his meeting with the Cicciolina and his appearance on the RAI, an Italian television channel. Returning to the country in 1993, he was employed as a cultural advisor at the Ministry of Arts and Culture. He remained there until 2000. His last album, "Makatia Coco", a tribute to bakers and pastry chefs, was released in 2003. He died of cancer in January 2006. He was a friend of mine.

Two photos uploaded together, both of them with the subject being Ophelia, drowned and floating among the flowers, as described in the play Hamlet. And I will ask, I don't expect an answer but I will ask, which do you prefer?
This Ophelia is by John Everett Millais and is one of the most popular works of the Pre-Raphaelite movment. The painting can be found in the Tate Britain and is surrounded by the largest collection of the Pre-Raphaelites. In one of the most breathtaking galleries I ever walked in, the beauty and tragedy of it will stop almost anyone in their tracks.
As a young man, many years before actually seeing this painting in person, I fell in love. On my first trip to London it was my first stop. But perhaps the question I started with was a bit unfair. Can you really prefer one Ophelia over another? John Everett Millais over Odilon Redon's version or visa versa?
Perhaps comparing the two and walking the many galleries of the world offers a reassurance that overcomes the present day politics. Yes, there once was a William Shakespeare and he still lives today. His works will continue to be presented in different versions by different people who see different things. There is good out there, genius to be found and things to engage with. In some very small way, I get to be a part of that.
