Duck-based silliness. Thanks Mike.

me me me me me. Cripes, imagine being so vain as to have a website all about yourself.

oh. yeh. right. ahem.

I have to say what a brilliant book Anthropology by Dan Rhodes is – much kudos to Vaughan for recommending it and Meg for giving it to me. For those that haven’t seen it, it is a collection of …um… well, anecdotes really. Each is only about a hundred or so words long, and reflects on some sort of (usually slightly unusual) aspect of a relationship. Some are funny, some sad, others uplifting or heartrending – and I think that the sort of emotion that you are likely to gain from each tale will depend almost entirely on you – your experiences, your viewpoint, even your mood – I think if you read a story one day, and then read it again a week later, your response to it would be different. And it is just great for dipping into at the breakfast table before work.
Advice: go buy it!

Thinking about the anti-capitalist protests taking place in London today, isn’t an “anarchists meeting” a contradiction in terms? Wouldn’t it be chaotic? How would any decisions be made?
