Greetings one and all and welcome back to another summertime edition of Laura's Links. I am just starting to cool down actually - literally and mentally. It was a hot day with a great many, annoying things happening all throughout the day. I was only smart enough to turn on the air conditioning in the late afternoon, after I had already been stewing about, muttering under my breath and fretting for quite a number of hours in a row. Some days are just like that. ~ On a happier note, I can report to you that as per my column last week, we did have our special, honoured nonagenarian friend from the pool over to our place and it was a lovely evening. I can confirm that Mr. C grilled up a great spread, and his stash of whiskey dwindled a notch ...

A Clubman's Notes
Seeing Off the River-Demon
Tales for Our Time is a unique feature of The Mark Steyn Club - and, I'm pleased to say, one of our most popular: our nightly audio serialisations of classic literature from Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four to Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey, via some neglected but highly pertinent gems such as Conan Doyle's tale of proto-jihadists preying on foolish westerners, The Tragedy of the Korosko. Our current caper is Heart of Darkness, Joseph Conrad's classic of 1899. Thank you for all your perceptive comments about this caper. In tonight's penultimate episode the white men prepare to abandon the ruined trading-station: When next day we left at noon, the crowd, of whose presence behind the curtain of trees I had been acutely conscious all the time, ...
