The puritanical squeamishness around bodies is almost funny, but I’m genuinely nauseated by the argument that (usually) men couldn’t possibly held accountable for their future actions when confronted with an art boob.

How are things with me? Not bad! I mean, the island that appeared on the lake does seem to be moving closer, closer each day, a dark form taking shape in the mist. But work's good and I'm feeling OK except when I find myself gazing at that accursed island, drawing ever nearer. How are you?
