It’s not that, after a certain age, we can’t do certain things anymore; it’s that we are so overwhelmed by this generic incapacitation that we never know for sure what exactly are those things that can’t be done anymore. So we end up fumbling and crumbling for anything at all; well, not without a certain subtle, intimate pleasure of spreading confusion and irritation amongst mates.

PS: new canvas at the left; it is called “No Name”. Give it a click.

PS2: and this is a Lefsetz post on McCartney, written in June. It makes you wanna be older and milder.

    Irresistible humor – you say in the beginning – then when you read it again you start to panic because you realize there is a dark truth behind the words.
    Thank you for the best blog in the world.

    Thanks all of you guys. I haven’t been around lately, but it’s such a warm and pleasant feeling to come here and find so many comments. I love your pro’s and I love your con’s, I do consider every single line you write, I think about them and I even answer sometimes, when my time is not dramatically short.
    Lisa, you’re always positive and girlish which is a rare thing happening here on my blog. Thank you!
    Dear anonymous guys, you make my days with your acid comments, your hints and your very well kept secrets! I’ll buy you all an Earl Grey with whisky and then we’ll see what it’ll happen! :)
    Tony, you’re always adequate and attentive which is something I terribly hope for whenever I write a text.
    Marcus, you’re always close to me in a very sincere and straight way that moves me and makes me smile.
    C, do I really deserve that much of your total amount of curiosity? :)

    Have a great evening all.
    Love,
    A.
