I don’t think I’ve done one of these yet, or recently at any rate. So here’s a Wordle for this blog: So, what conclusions can one draw from the word frequency? I’ll leave that to a brave commenter. J
I’m more open to trying things of late, apart of course from the proverbial form of stick dancing and the less than education-related product of British public schooling.. I tend to find it enriches life without the attendant risk of bruising or prolapse. It also affords a chance to understand where one’s capabilities lie. I’m …
Having imposed myself on the World-Wide Web for over fifteen years now, I should really know that trying to inject facts into a heated debate is folly. But no, like the dog getting nostalgic for his own upchuck I still wade in having mustered the dual battalions of Knowing What I am Talking About and …
Thursday 6th of May is going to to be an important day in my life. It’s the last day of my anti-depressant use. There was also some kind of election, but that’s possibly for another day. The past two weeks have been among the most personally productive of my life, especially when the necessity of …
My Palm Pre nags me. All my fault, so I shouldn’t complain. I use a third party task tool to capture a range of ideas, not least ideas for posts in this blog. One such post was putatively an open letter to the Christian Church with a shopping list of things it needs to do …

My initial plan for my last post of 2009 — technically now the first post of 2010 according to the clock on my tool-bar — was to craft a witty pastiche of the annual Christmas Letter beloved of many, but I’ve decided not. There wasn’t going to be much mileage in a parody that hung …
My subscription magazines have arrived in their usual clump this week. Front and center is the latest copy of Empire magazine, adorned with a holographic image of Iron Man as part of the build up to the 2010 film sequel. The first Iron Man film was a triumph, marking the latest in a line of …
Whoops. Forgotten to blog recently. How remiss of me. It’s not as if I haven’t been devoting time to this website; I’ve been hacking away deploying a Wiki and re-installing a content management system ostensibly to let me create tutorial materials for teaching guitar and bass.
