The liver, though, stubbornly refuses to talk.

Meanwhile, exciting news from the world of medical science:



Ah, so that's what those are. I thought the neighbours had left the TV on.

  1. I've known some livers in my day. Trust me; you really don't want to hear what they've got to say. You've never heard such bile.

  2. P.S. The morning after the election you tweeted about finishing up some writing and going in that morning to record. Is it something we'll be able to hear soon?

  4. Oh, yes, sorry about that. It's on Listen Again until Friday, and stars the excellent James Fleet.

  5. Thank you both for the pointer. That was thoroughly enjoyable; loads of fun.

    Reminded me of something from several years ago. There was a gubernatorial election some years ago in our neighboring state of Louisiana. The incumbent had been convicted for fraud and misappropriation of state funds. The challenger was a fellow named David Duke--grand master of the Ku Klux Klan.

    One of the most enjoyable campaign bumper stickers that year said, "Vote for the crook."
