Your a Dr., I'm a Dr.
Your home page discusses your origins - as does mine discuss mine.
You write funny stuff - I will leave judgement of mine to others, posterity, the BBC, the Masons, or whoever it is that judges these things.
Such a chain of co-incidence - genuinely so and very odd. Well, for the record, I just read that thing you wrote on "Alternative Carpark" ('I am a mime my body is my tool') with the Pet Shop Boys and Alanis etc.. and it actually made me laugh out loud, which was a novel experience.

You mean I'm not just churning out mindless drivel which gets roundly ignored by the masses? Blimey. 
Are you a doctor of medicine, by the way? I'm not.

I know the feeling, sitting in a room with one candle and half a pizza, churning out page after page into the blank void, then cupping a hand over one ear and opening the window and listening out for just one sign, maybe a chuckle or a guffaw, or even that thing people do when they are pretending to laugh, which involves a kind of half smile and noise that goes "Phhuh.". But - nothing. Close the window. Thats the masses for you - typically ungrateful.
No, I am not a medical doctor. Not even a vet or a dentist. And I don't trust them either. I don't think there any real ones. I think people just pretend. Who, honestly and genuinely, wants to be a dentist? No one. Therefore, they must be pretending to want to be dentists. So, no I dont' trust them. You're not a dentist are you?

A dentist? Good lord no. I'm a doctor of woodwork, as well as being Regius Professor of pedantry at the University of East Stirlingshire. Dentist indeed. 
Do you mind if I close the window?

I humbly apologise for implying that you might have been a dentist, or even that you might have thought about being one at some stage. If you write your name and address on the back of this card, I can send you an anchovy and a walnut as recompense.
Close any one of your windows that you like. I don't have a problem with it. I will keep mine open for a bit though. If I close it, I know, someone will laugh, just then, so I have to keep it open. Anyway, after a few weeks, the hypothermia just seems normal.
