Book Review by Canuck Bunion
Higgs Boson drones on and on, yet somehow remains marginally entertaining in his distinct "it must be marvelous to be me" musings.
I'm not sure I am buying his story that he invented air.

Books I would like to write...
Free form fashion poemsby Canuck Bunion:
Can you imagine trapsing into
the local gym to work out in this?
I have enough trouble just dealing
with the front zip of my sports bra.
Why can I say?
I'm just taking the piss...
