Unless the freezing wears off halfway through. The dentist didn't believe me at first and then I started screaming my brains out.

To his credit, whatever the fuck he gave me next didn't wear off until nearly bedtime.

What initiated the audiobook and talks of a series? Did you reach out to people for these it do they contact you? How do you make sure they're not taking you to the cleaners?

I'm fascinated by stories of people who have breakthroughs in new areas (like college dropouts who form companies like Google) because there's so much that had to go right that isn't core to just writing, programming, etc.

I wish that there were better options for those of us who do actually need a multinational option. I'm not thrilled about being with HSBC, but I have a mortgage and tenants in one country and I live and work in another.

They treat me well, but HSBC is a scuzzy company.
