No I just don't like mysteries, whodunnits, detective anything. I was reading Edgar Rice Burroughs at the same time, that took. Of course Christie is a vastly superior writer. If only the murders had taken place on a space ship instead of trains etc.. she might have converted me to mysteries as a genre.
Not this?

I think I always resented/was bored by traditional mysteries because I just didn't care about who did it or why or where the necklace was hidden. What I failed to understand was that it wasn't about caring, it was about a love of unraveling, of deduction.

Everything else was window dressing.

Who had it? The Christie folk?
Everyone?
Cocaine was mostly legal everywhere in the world until the 1930s.
Cocaine wasn't removed from Coca Cola until 1903.
Banned doesn't stop anyone chasing the dragon who thinks that they are above the law.

Oh yeah I forgot about the cocaine, what a shame times changed.
Tenchlife in WW1 is a lot more Trainspotting than I had been led to believe.
I wonder if cocaine helped the soldiers ignore mustard gas?

I wonder if it was different than what it is like today? Less potent because of less refinement? More like chewing the leaves?
No one has straight cocaine.
It will kill you.
You have to cut it.
Depending on how wealthy you are or are not determines what ratio of cocaine to something pleasant (or something less pleasant if you are not wealthy) that you will be snorting.
Google google...
But then, in 1900, when The Knick is set, Cocaine is a liquid Clive Owen abuses himself with with a needle between his toes.

Clive Owen does nothing for you?
The Knick is very dull, so you're missing very little.

So does that mean it's critically acclaimed and loved by the cool kids. Am I gonna have to sit and listen to my friends bang on about it for months before I finally give in and watch it and have to pretend I thought it was a ife changing experience too but secretly think it was actually not that good
It's Breaking bad all over again (yeah that's right, I went there.....I think breaking bad is just.....mildly good.....what of it)
