Six years ago today, I took some comfort from basking in the glow of a burning bridge. Has it harmed my career in the interim? Doubt it, but can't rule it out.

But if I was willing to let this stuff pass for the sake of maybe 2 book sales, I wouldn't deserve any of them.

@Garwboy thank you for your integrity!
(Off to check out your book).

@annecavicchi this is very much appreciated, as is you checking out the book. But the latter is ABSOLUTELY NOT necessary, just to clarify.

Gaaah! It's just possible cynicism all the way down!

@Garwboy I just bought and downloaded #TheIdiotBrain and look forward to reading it! #books #reading

@Garwboy Never heard of the guy (Whale), so I looked him up on Wikipedia. Seems like a pretty shitty person, how on earth did he get an MBE??

I respect your bridge incineration. Best to keep types like that on the other side of the river.
