Two scientists walk through a cluttered old-fashioned science laboratory.

The female scientist says 
β€œAnalogue instruments! Paper records! Chalk boards! I thought you'd agreed to modernise the laboratory?”

The male scientist replies
β€œThat's what i'm so excited about: we have moved to cloud-based storage for our data!”

They step out onto a balcony. She says:
β€œPlease tell me you haven't built a library zeppelin” 

This is exactly what he has done. It floats across the sky and he adds
β€œIt's got a fax machine!”

β€˜I feel I am not yet grown up’: Alan Bennett’s diary of his 90th year He got stuck in the bath and met the queen. But despite a few wobbles and procedures, the author still can’t believe his age

I've said it before and I'll say it again; it'll be a sad day when Alan Bennett pops his clogs. There should be a national day of mourning.

She played Brighton this week, and I was sorely tempted but it clashed with another, so missed out this time.

What an astounding performance from both groups. Check out the new Plantoid album, Flare, for all your psychedelic jazz prog rock fusion needs.

I thought I was fed up with Wings and McCartney's constant reminiscing - but, nah! Now make another film about your solo career, Paul.

Ok, I've watched Man On The Run and despite reservations, it's fucking great. The despair. The joy. The fuck it attitude of Paul and Linda (who cares she can't sing, it's what makes it!). The despair again. The chutzpah. The overwhelming freedom. Joie de vivre.

Remember my infographic about How Books Enter the Library? In this new version, I’ve added an annotated summary of Kelly Jensen’s β€œBooks Don’t Just Appear on the Shelves.” Use this mashup to help folks understand how the claim of porn in school libraries makes no sense. tinyurl.com/how-books-2026
