I must reclaim my good life and I must return to my good works.

I catnap now and then, but I think while I nap, so it's not a waste of time.

I haven't been to Tasmania. I haven't been to the South Pole, and I haven't been to the North Pole. I want to see the polar bear migration before there are no polar bears. I want to see Glacier National Park before the glacier melts.

I always thought I would be a teacher. And I think I actually lived up to my initial dreams, because what I do now is teach millions and millions of people many different kinds of things.

I record my radio show, and my staff makes me a nice lunch in the kitchen, usually fish - whatever's freshest and line-caught - and a salad. I drink water and herbal tea, a blend of catnip, elderberry, and horehound.

I don't have time to have friends come and stay, except on weekends in Maine. I invite a lot of people to come to Maine.

Franchesca and Sharkey, my French bulldogs, have their own blog. And they are brilliant at it.
