How Many For Just A Nice Relaxing Coma?…

Just discovered over here that it would take a marathon drinking session of about 300 cans of Coca-Cola Classic to kill me outright [this educational service giving me such life-changing information was found by way of Jennifer Garrett, by the by].
(Of course, at this time of the year [based on prior experience], it […]

Words

I meant to write about this earlier! But then I forgot, as I tend to do.
Yami, so kindly, sent me two books. Possibly these are books she couldn’t otherwise get rid of, but so what? Books! I love books! And I got them, um, a long time ago, and I am looking forward to reading […]

Friday Roch blogging: multilingual edition

Les hivers de mon enfance étaient des saisons longues, longues. Nous vivions en trois lieux: l’école, l’église et la patinoire; mais la vraie vie était sur la patinoire.
The winters of my childhood were long, long seasons. We lived in three places — the school, the church and the skating-rink — but our real life […]

Why I am so very slack

Actually, the world is not yet ready for that story. When you’re cleared for the Giant Rat of Sumatra come back and tell us and we’ll reconsider.
But we can reliably inform you that on the eve of our beloved yamlet’s visit, bad nasty terrrristes may or may not have tried again to blow up […]

In this dream, my girlfriend was a teenaged Bette Midler (hey, I’ve always been a bit of a ‘nose man’ — […]

Medical things I do not know answers to

A friend of mine (hi friend! I doubt you are reading this!) is studying medicine in Europe, and currently getting British citizenship so that she can more easily work in Europe forever and ever. (Her current plan is to be a pathologist in the south of France, a plan which I support very much on […]

Found The Key Under The Rock By The Back Door…

I guess I need to check my upteen e-mail accounts more often (or not try to access this when I’m behind my employer’s firewall — or else maybe only get on the interwebbie-thingamahootchie-jobber when I have Miles David going on the CD player) — well, for whatever reason, I have apparently (we’ll see if this […]
