Another Dr Pierce.

Good evening. Soon I am going to make a very interesting post that I hope you will all enjoy about a book I own. It's a medical book by Dr Pierce, an American Puritan from 1909. It talks a lot about the evils of obscene literature and similar things. It's my favourite book ever perhaps. I can't write this post until I have reconciled the fact that the book is upstairs and the internet is downstairs. I've been working on this problem for three days and the solution has not yet come to fruition. Upstairs seems a long way away when you're downstairs and...I would say more but AGAIN I can hear Simon & Garfunkel in the other room and I have to go in there right now. This keeps happening. Telly and internet in the same room would be a wonderful thing. Why do people insist on putting more than a couple of rooms in houses? It's wasteful.

Bye.

Alan Alda on Parkinson.

The seventy year old Alan Alda, who I've just seen interviewed on Parkinson as you probably worked out from my overly descriptive title, is reminiscent of his younger self in a way that no-one else I can think of is. I don't know what it is exactly...partly that his voice hasn't changed, and if you close your eyes and just listen to him you think 'Egad! He's entirely Hawkeye to this day!' It's not that he doesn't look his age. But certain expressions whisk him back to the 1970s too - particularly when he laughs. It's really a bit amazing.

I have no comment on content. It's just not that sort of a journal.
