A Theory.

I must get my head around this:

I was just talking to the Brooklyn Minx (a one-sided affair by email, you understand) when it occurred to me that for all the splendid achievements of the scientists, the great literary figures, the polar explorers and the writers of Father Ted, the greatest exposition of the human spirit lies in the combination of music and dance. I think it has something to do with the soul breaking out of its cage for a little while and flying free, but I’m not sure yet. Enjoying a bottle of Barnsley Blonde followed by a few whisky chasers might do wonders for the imaginative and intuitive faculties, but it doesn’t help much with the working-it-all-out process.
