Two things came together this morning.

1) I woke from a dream in which I'd been complaining to someone that I had all these great ideas for cartoons but didn't know how to draw.

2) I mused yet again on the curious fact that Paul Dirac and Cary Grant were at infant school together just round the corner from here, and that, living as I do in a road named after Dirac, I really ought to find a way to mark his 110th birthday this August.

Time to get on to Kate Beaton, methinks....

I thought Dirac would live forever. But 110? He must be dead. Weird and amazing guy.

Archie Leach never won an Oscar. But I agree with David Thompson: the finest motion picture actor ever.

Eleventy would indeed be a very respectable age for a physicist.

Leach did get an Oscar, albeit an honorary one, in 1970. I decided to count that, because - well, after all, Nobels are honorary too in a way.
