Tim just called to tell me that Tall Paul, our new associate editor, is sick with the flu. Hmmm. He seemed fine yesterday. It’s sort of hard to believe that it just snuck up on him the middle of the night.
Surely his current health status has nothing to do with the fact that he partied last night with some of his old Observer pals. No. I don’t believe that the new guy would risk my wrath just to stay home and nurse a hangover. On a ship day, no less.
Paul, dude, you’re on my list.
