It’s difficult to predict the future and a lot of people stuff up. I remember when I was 8 my school class was given an assignment to predict what things would be like in the year 2000- some people drew pictures of space ships and domes – the most realistic prediction was Shane Bartley who [...]

Common Sense
Heres a thought for you.. Theres an old saying – “theres nothing common about common sense” – which kind of makes people laugh because it does seem to ring true – i think the world would be a better place if people before doing thing asked a couple of questions: What am i doing? Why [...]

Knowing when to quit!
Why is it that tv shows never know when to quit? There are so many shows there that started really cool but ended up useless such as: Lost – started really great – the crash, the little flashbacks of history was really interesting as was the the way people were interacting. Hustle – 4 seasons [...]

Tomb raider
Any excuse to publish a picture of Rhona Mitra who was the first actress to play the part of Lara Croft, appearing at places like E3. I glanced upon an article earlier today claiming that one of the other actress’s were best but not for me, so i thought why not blog about it. Lara [...]

Censorship
So i was going through my mails earlier today (i admit I’m very behind on reading and replying to email as i have a lot happening at the moment) and i came across an email from wordpress talking about some new rules that were or are being proposed in the US which are supposed to [...]

People I lost touch with.
I got to thinking last night about people i regret loosing touch with – primarily because I just re-established contact with a friend from Switzerland. I don’t really get to see any of my friends as often as i would like – whenever i get a spare moment i always end up seeing the same [...]

Caving
I saw the film sanctum the other day and it reminded me of some of the caving I’ve done in the past. I wouldn’t pretend to be the worlds best caver, but i started fairly young (around 15) and continued to cave for many years – its something i used to do when i was [...]

The rules of heaven
So what exactly is the deal in heaven – i mean if your good you go to heaven – but what happens when you get there? some people enjoy being bad, does that mean they can get kicked out? what happens if two people have two opinions on what they like? maybe heaven for one [...]

Floating in space.
So here’s the scenario – you’re in the space shuttle, you pass wind because you unwisely consumed a lot of Newcastle Brown Ale at the pre-launch party and your fellow astronauts flushed you out the airlock without a space suit – how long would you survive? Now i knew a couple of things [...]

If i had to have banner ads on my site
Thankfully banner adds don’t seem to be as predominant as they once were, and i don’t like advertising. WordPress used to occasionally chuck button ads into my blog, and that drives me nuts. I pay for an annual subscription for WordPress now so i kind of hope that it doesn’t still do the same thing. [...]
