The Wrong Case
Just finished the first in a short series about Milo - who always needs a drink - by James Crumley. Emil gave me the book for Christmas and thanks to the net I could find out about the other books in the Milo series. So, in usual style, I moved to AdLibris and ordered the Dancing Bear and Final Country. Since Milo is 39 in the TWC written in 1975, he should be almost 70 in the last book , if time is real - Then he would have inherited his trust fund (to come to bear when he is 54 - if it were me I would be retired, and maybe I would be a drunk too). Unfortunately one book, a crossover called Bordersnakes, is not available. Guess I'll have to try to remember it for another time. There is another short series and also a book about Vietnam. Guess it can be time to do that.
Today was not a real success, but I did get the "docent utlåtande" mailed. Also cleaned a bit and started the proceedings article that I must get done by next week. Carol and Solveig are not directly over burdened with work. I'll have to work out what to keep them busy with.
The big news of the day is that Louise Hoffsten is going to be in Uppsala! This kind of thing lets me know that I don't have a lot of friends - Don't know who to ask to go with me, guess I can do it by myself.
The most interesting thing in the newspaper was that distance cources over the net are not very well received. I would like to develop a course - maybe on biological control, or some sort of modelling. But that will have to be if I get my "tjänst". Otherwise I can revert to the "Fly away home" book about coccinelids as a model for everything.
