I have been delighted to see that my humble pseudo-intellectual blog has struck a chord with readers. Clearly there is a groundswell of support out there for informed commentary on such weighty issues as the funny word associations possible with the name 'Albert Nobbs'.
While we're discussing funny word associations, it is curious that in the TV show 'Glee' the name of the singing group is the 'New Directions'. Try saying it quickly a few times and it sounds like the 'Nude erections'. Is this some sort of 'in joke' being played on viewers by the producers? Perhaps it will be 'uncovered' in the next season.
I know some will say that is far-fetched, but this blog is called 'An Incomprehensible Truth' for a reason. Yes, yes, it's not just so I could use a big word in the title.
Until the next incomprehensible discovery, happy viewing of those 'Glee' re-runs.

Dear Mycroft
Hoping that you will write lots more posts this year. Especially posts with interesting * footnotes. Posts about pets, prongs and pedants are also enjoyable.
Yours sincerely,
Jruth
New Directions is perhaps a more subtle name than Hugh Jorgon, a covers band from up in the Mallee (always spoken of fondly by the girls from Sea Lake!). But I agree with you that the New Directions name involves some "he he-ing" on the part of the Glee producers ...
