Melatonin blues.

Certain friends who have in the past advocated melatonin as a cure-all might want to take a look at this post (via BoingBoing). Says one of the lead scientists," I'm sure that many people who take it wouldn't take steroids so glibly." Seems to switch off gonadotropin in birds. God knows what it does in people. (Of course guys will be more alarmed at this news than the ladies.) Read and be cautious.

The grandchildren need one of these.




From BoingBoing comes this fine link. I think all the grandchildren should have one of these. Loukas and Zoë will be zooming down a hill, followed closely by Alison in a matching buggy. Small Sophie will be cruising along at her own good pace. Shiny, too.
