David's Song - Review


My Review
David's Song is a story that reels you in and stays with you long after you've finished. It was a well-written novel that made me laugh and cry. I have to admit I struggled with parts of the book, especially that in my eyes her children didn't factor much into Annie's decisions.
I highly recommend you read David's Song and let me know what you think.
Excerpt
I swallowed hard, trying to keep my composure. I was a mix of relief and surprise and elation. I tried smiling without looking too thrilled. This was not a declaration of love, but it was as close as I would ever get.
“It’s my pleasure,” I replied, feeling flushed.
“I should get you home,” he said and slowly pulled his hand away. “It’s late, even if we don’t have to dance in the morning.”
When we finally stepped outside again I looked to the sky. The lights from the neon signs had dimmed the stars, but I couldn’t help thinking that those same stars were on my side. I watched David as he zipped his jacket, and when he started to walk I fell in step beside him. He reached down and took my hand again. I looked to make sure that really was my hand in his.
“Next time I want to go to a concert, I’m calling you,” he told me as we waited for the light to cross the street. “Then we can go out again and really share the music.” He was nodding to himself as if he thought it a brilliant idea. He wouldn’t have to convince me.
“I’d like that,” I replied. We walked along quietly, hand in hand until we reached Glenwood Apartments. An orange glow rested over the parking lot from the street lights, and each building was highlighted by a brighter yellow light coming from the glass entryway at the doors.
“That’s my building over there.” I pointed to the third building in line. “Thanks for walking me home.” I reluctantly pulled my hand away as we approached the entrance.
“I always take my date home. It’s rude to make them walk home alone,” he said with a smile.
“Date?” I repeated.
“Well, we did go to a concert together. Isn’t that a date?”
I laughed. “We didn’t exactly go together.”
“Close enough,” he said. He took a step closer and looked down at me, his blue eyes looking almost black in the light. “You’re not like the other girls, Annie.” He was quiet and more sober than before.
“Is that a good thing or not?” I asked, feeling a little dizzy being so close to him.
“No, not like them at all,” he repeated.

Thanks to Vincent and all the others who contribute to this site.Response by points.1.
ReplyDeleteno comment2. (a) Upregulating NAD+ using certain supplements.
Good, what supplements?
(b) Mitochondrial
anti-oxidant. Quite possibly mito-Q or C60-olive oil.
James Watson also supported the possible efficacy of
C60. I remain astonished by this result. It is so spectacular that
it is either an error,or a fraud or it deserves a whole batch of Nobel prizes.
As far as I know (please correct if wrong) C60 does
not occur in known natural biological systems.
How can adding it to the human system do anything good?
Its like tossing a rock into the workings of an elaborate conveyor belt and finding that
the conveyor belt now works twice as well as before. ???
If adding C60 does extend longevity, I think that it lends considerable support to the idea that aging
(and cancer) are the results of a quasi-programmed behaviour.
The C60 would then somehow be jamming the quasi-programmed behaviour.I think that considerable leverage
could be obtained by trying to falsify the idea that aging/cancer are quasi-programmed.
Any good ideas about how to do it?3. GUT Doesn't yet exist for physics.
I am skeptical that it might exist for biology. Good luck in your hunt,
its always good to "shoot the moon" in research.4.
Nice observation.5. Linear responses are exceptional.
I like to think of the human system as being in quasi-equilibrium
with constraints: both internal and external. As long
as these constraints do not change then all first order effects are cancelled out; i.e., no
linear responses. However, if a major constraint is removed (say bacterial infectious disease are
greatly reduced by cleanliness and antibiotics) then a linear response can be
expected to move us to the new equilibrium (our current maximum lifespan of between 80
and 120 years). The use of anti-inflammatories and other immune suppressing strategies then allow us to reduce the diseases of affluence.
Similarly, if we discover broadly effective antivirals and/or
a cure for cancer, then we can expect more linear response
type changes as we move to the new quasi-equilibrium.6.
Well said. I think this is key.7. No comment.8.
Vince on occasion has seemed to voice support for quasi-programmed aging.
If quasi-programming is true then, we might might have profound changes due to some relatively small changes that "jam" the program: C60?
or NMN?9. Agree.10. Agree.11. Would like to hear more.12.
Raw food versus whole food. Meat versus vegetables. Whole can of worms here.13.
Good and good luck.In the personal comments, paragraph C is scrambled.Thanks again for your
work and your ability to communicate in language suitable for those of us
who are "lay people" in this area.Jim Rose
