My new book that I ordered on www.amazon.com came in the mail yesterday. I am so thrilled! It's called In Search of Memory by Eric Kandel. Kandel won the Nobel Prize in 2000. He won the prize because of his research in how memories are formed in the brain. Kandel proposed the idea in the 1950s that he could find the "id" and "ego" in the brain. A mentor told him it couldn't be done. He still tried to reach that goal, and he succeeded. This book looks like intellectual candy.
I found this parody of "I am the Model of a Modern Major General" from "Gilbert and Sullivan". There are many parodies of that song.
