Once again I have manflu, the most despicable disease known to man (and to women, who also suffer indirectly from it).
So blogging is patchy. Also, I have to do some teaching stuff, which involves thinking about what the essays say.
I am writing, slowly, a piece about the recent paper on ratite origins first author of which is my friend and occasional sparring partner John Harshman. As this means I have to learn stuff first, it's taking a while, but I want it to be a good one. Be patient, and in the meantime read this.

I have a whole pile of science-y book reviews on two of my older blogs, here and here. Both of those blogs have now been largely superseded by or merged into this one. So I'm going to be slowly moving the relevant reviews over here. I'll mostly be doing the posts one or two per weekend and I'll…

The "manflu" website assumes that the reader is already familiar with the term, as it provides no definition that I can find. As I have never heard anyone make the bizzare claim that the symptoms and severity of flu are somehow dependent on gender, it remains a mystery to me.
Look, it's just true that when a man gets a virus it is the end of the world, OK?
But in case you aren't clear on this, see here.
Rest, fluid, etc. Plan on how you're going to make it up to your wife.
I'm suffering in solitude (well, that is except for my son, who I'm getting to go to the shop and so on).

You mean?...
We're doomed...
Thansk for visiting the site, hope you're better now, unfortunately with all the extra attention the sites recieved some sad individual has decided to hack it and basically completely knackered the site, and as its just a tongue in cheek thing I did as a joke in some spare time, I've lost the lot, hopefully will have something up there again soon.
Regards
