Who knew raisins were so important to history.
Let them eat raisins.
The Daily Mail UK ran an interesting article on Lord Nelson today. In addition to providing a brief look into Lord Nelson's command strategy, the article offers a few tidbits of historical research for all history writers.
A great place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there.
I love history. However, I'm very glad I live in the age of modern medicine and dentistry. Check out this Daily Mail article about Thomas Berdmore's treatise on dentistry from 1770.
Eeeewwwww.
ENYA
I am a rabid Enya fan, so you can imagine my excitement at the release of her new CD And Winter Came. I had the good fortune to meet her once seven years ago. It was after her appearance on the Larry King Live show. I happened to work in the CNN building and the alley between the building and the parking structure was where the autograph hounds always hung out. Most nights I ignored them and went to my car. On this particular night, I happened to ask who they were waiting for. When they said "Enya" I almost came unglued with excitement. For fear of missing her, I didn't dare run to my car and get my CD for her to sign. Instead I waited, a blank page in my Dayrunner ready. Out she came and for the first time in my life I was so star struck, I could barely put a sentence together.
The framed autograph still hangs in my office at home.
