http://mccrumble.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
The Hard Times of Joseph McCrumble. Friday, September 02, 2011. Oh my Who would have thought it? Am I about to be rehabilitated? My hands tremble slightly as I write this message. For so long has my dream to bring parasitology to the public been thwarted. For so long have I been consigned to living anonymously, keeping hidden all my ambitions, squandering my talents, looking forlornly out over the public engagement landscape and wondering - will my time ever come? For the rest of their lives.

The Hard Times of Joseph McCrumble. Saturday, February 06, 2010. He said breezily as if struck by a good idea. 'Stand Up for Africa. Have it in stock at their website. We just have to tell people not to but the book through Amazon, Blackwells or any other retailer. That way the royalties go straight to the charity. OK? Sure, Mark', I replied. 'So how are you doing these days - it's been a long time since you were in touch. I thought you maybe forgot about us.'. I squawked. 'I can't. Links to this post.

The Hard Times of Joseph McCrumble. Thursday, March 05, 2009. What are you on about? I asked in alarm that my son had become suddenly so mobid. I'm just stating the obvious, you can't deny it's true. Go on, try.', he challenged. Hard as I might, I could offer no reposte. 'Are you thinking upon your own mortality? I asked instead, trying to understand where the idea of acting this way had emerged. And for two, haven't you noticed you've been shuffling around talking to yourself lately? Dr Wolfson - Denise...

The Hard Times of Joseph McCrumble. Tuesday, March 23, 2010. Another call from my marketing manager - Dr Mark Booth. The other day. He sounded upbeat."Hey Joseph, you'll never guess!
