Something compelling - yeah. I haven't got time to write much right now but I think it's compelling because we are not actually totally alone in the classic existential sense. Part of our being is intrinsically social, interwoven and made up of language and narratives. I don't find it helpful to think that these are "bolt-ons" or additions to some core being.

Snowboarding. Sigh. I really like the idea and I was just about OK on skis but its been such a long time. OH wasn't exactly bristling with mountains. There's Mad River Mountain, which as a name is hilarious. MRM is actually a hill, not a mountain, and is roughly equivalent of the hill from Kensington High Street to Notting Hill tube station, here in London. Granted, one can certainly ski and snowboard down it (I once knew an excentric judge - are there any other kinds? - who skiied to work in Edinburgh when it snowed) but it's hardly an Alpine black run.

So, hope you're having/had a fine time out there in the snow. I can only imagine with some jealousy that you are/did. And I am happy for you.
