Squirrel nuts

• “Ever since I was I was boy, I’ve collected ‘interesting’ bits of information.

• “I collected them like a squirrel gathers nuts, tasty kernels of facts that I then bury away somewhere because I know they’ll come in handy one day.

• “But like the squirrel, too often I forget where I’ve buried them, or I remember only half the story, which can be worse.

• “That’s one of the reasons I keep this blog.”
