Sibley on Mickey’s Birthday

This morning on the BBC World Service I heard (while writhing in agony from my ailment) our blogging friend Brian Sibley talking about Mickey Mouse’s 80th birthday. There’s audio of Brian talking about Mickey, that’s a bit different from what I heard this morning, at this link. And over at this link, Brian has an essay about the significance of the mouse, all these years later.

Food, disgusting food

After getting up in the middle of the night for a bathroom visit, I woke up this morning feeling weak and washed out, but perhaps fit for duty at work. Carol made oatmeal and I ate some of that. Bad idea. Very bad idea. I don’t know what this is that’s got me, but it’s hanging on way too long. Back to bed.
