But I couldn’t be bothered. Instead I went out and stood in
the frosty garden to admire the full moon. I decided that the moon and frost
make a good marriage, and Orion impresses as a fitting page.

Changing the Focus.
The night being cold and the fireside warm, I watched a 1½
hour TV documentary on Herbert von Karajan. I subsequently intended to make a curmudgeonly
post about how readily we overstate greatness in order to fill space in some
medium or other, and Karajan wasn’t the only target. The fallibility of Sherlock Holmes's deductive reasoning and the
phenomenon of YouTube providing a forum for the Moronic Tendency were jostling
for attention too.
