Clear Fanfare
The other day I was struck by this thought. You know the sign "KEEP CLEAR"? Well, if you were to treat it literally, you'd never cross a road or entry or whatever that had it, would you? Cos as soon as you crossed it, you wouldn't be keeping it clear anymore.

In other news, after a few days of searching, I got myself a copy of Pride And Prejudice And Zombies. There's a BBC News interview with the co-author Seth Grahame-Smith here... I'm afraid I couldn't resist. I'm going to have to wait a bit before I start reading it - I began Frost/Nixon on the train yesterday, which is a bit big (and dry, but, y'know, you pays your money and you takes your choice).

DIGRESSION ALERT: Surely that expression should read "you takes your choice and you pays your money"? Illogical, Captain...

Mind you, I like the blurb on the back: "JANE AUSTEN is the author of Sense and Sensibility, Persuasion, Mansfield Park, and other masterpieces of English literature. SETH GRAHAME-SMITH once took a class in English literature."
