The decline of a 50-something in London, in bite-sized daily installments. Sunday, January 29, 2006. A Man for All Seasons. We went to see A Man for All Seasons. With Martin Shaw last night with my parents, who are visiting from the U.S. It was excellent. I only dimly remember the film and never saw it on stage before, but my father watched the play in the early 1960s, with Paul Scofield, and he enjoyed this production as well. If you get a chance, catch it before it closes on April 1st. Yes, I'd give th...

Eamonn's Home: Child Prodigies
http://eamonnsullivan.blogspot.com/2006/10/child-prodigies.html
The decline of a 50-something in London, in bite-sized daily installments. Friday, October 13, 2006. I worry too much about my kids. I forget what I was like as a child - hopeless at school and socially awkward. Yet today, although I'm no Nobel Prize winner, I get by. Ironically, I'm making my living doing precisely what I most struggled with as a student. I learned to write years later than my peers, but ended up employed for the past 20 years doing just that. One of my favorite writers, Malcolm Gladwell.

Eamonn's Home: Goals
http://eamonnsullivan.blogspot.com/2006/10/goals.html
The decline of a 50-something in London, in bite-sized daily installments. Saturday, October 21, 2006. I was reading a blog post. The other day by Scott Adams, the creator of the Dilbert comic. He advocates using what pop-psychologists and self-help gurus call affirmations. He writes down his goals 15 times a day and says it has an almost a magical effect. So what would I write down, assuming (and this is a big if) I'd have the patience and the self discipline to do it several times a day? Doing that....

Eamonn's Home: Baroque Cycle and Change
http://eamonnsullivan.blogspot.com/2006/10/baroque-cycle-and-change.html
The decline of a 50-something in London, in bite-sized daily installments. Sunday, October 29, 2006. Baroque Cycle and Change. Since I've already marked myself out as a hopeless nerd (see Free Software. I may as well also admit that I love science fiction. I've just finished Neal Stephenson's Baroque Cycle trilogy. It's not for the faint of heart. Each volume - Quicksilver. And The System of the World. We're also living in interesting times now: We have all of the world's knowledge at our fingertips....

The decline of a 50-something in London, in bite-sized daily installments. Tuesday, June 27, 2006. It's the name of Second Life. That put me off. I don't have time for my first life, let alone another one. But if something doesn't grab me initially, it's usually because I don't know enough about it. And there's no doubt that this is the future, or something very like it. I need to learn more. My avatar is vaguely a copy of me, albeit thinner and with better hair - no imagination! I haven't progressed far...

The decline of a 50-something in London, in bite-sized daily installments. Monday, October 23, 2006. I went huntin. It was rly fun.". What were you hunting? I replied. "And did you kill one? 4 pheasants and partridges. I didn't kil. any but they (chris his dad) got 3 pheasants 1 partridge.". I'm sure trooping around the French countryside killing birds is improving his French. View my complete profile. Baroque Cycle and Change. Cures for the Common Cold. Family at a Distance.

Eamonn's Home: Cures for the Common Cold
http://eamonnsullivan.blogspot.com/2006/10/cures-for-common-cold.html
The decline of a 50-something in London, in bite-sized daily installments. Friday, October 13, 2006. Cures for the Common Cold. I've been bedridden and out of work for a couple of days now with a cold I dragged back from the U.S. I must not be used to the germs there, because this one has floored me more than usual. I think I caught it from my father, who was over it in 12 hours. Lists a few more, albeit similarly iffy, cures. For now, the only cure I've found is to sleep through it. Family at a Distance.
