My day off for the week. In the pub slowly sipping my way through their cheapest bottle of wine, reading #Keynes and #Minsky. Life is good.

Also Avicenna: "when wine is taken in moderation, it gives rise to a large amount of breath, whose character is balanced, and whose luminosity is strong and brilliant." And: "Is it the fault of wine if a fool drinks it and goes stumbling into darkness?" By Jove, those Muslim Johnnies are on to something. If only we in the West weren't such dour wowsers.
