Can there ever be a form of representative government that leans heavily upon one interpretation of one faith to form laws and rules that are fair and just for everyone? There are several issues to address here. If we run with Christianity, what version of it? Speak to the devotees of the Catholic Church, and […]
So, this is a bit of a vanity project, but I dare say it’s a bit of light-hearted fun, that may also prove quite interesting! I’ve already put this out there on Twitter, we’ll see what (if any) responses I get!
This is a prompt, inspired by a response to another prompt, and also by some recent tragic events. As such, this post may be upsetting for some. In June, a miniature submersible, called the Titan, took passengers down towards the remains of the Titanic. The Titanic is 3,800 metres under water, and at those depths, […]
Back in 2004, I found myself in the fortunate position to be able to go to Australia. Initially, it looked like I’d be going with my cousins, and then, after various discussions, the trip morphed, until my mother and father were also coming along. My brother couldn’t make it; I believe he was at university […]
Ah the Moon. It’s not the best place for parties (there’s no atmosphere). However, it has a special place in the hearts and minds of countless billions throughout history. We’ve all looked up at this bright, glowing sphere at some point, and at various points of the year, we get treated to different images. The […]
You have probably encountered words like ‘irregardless’ or ‘pacifically’ before. These ‘words’ sit alongside strange grammatical errors like ‘to of’ instead of ‘to have’, or the transposing of the words ‘affect’ and ‘effect’. How does this happen? I can sort of understand how two similar words can be mixed up, but a made-up word like […]
What’s your favorite thing about yourself? I have no idea how to answer this! I am not given to vanity, and to be honest, I can be my own worst critic. I am certainly not often inclined to grant myself praise. Now, if you asked me to write a list of things I loathe about […]
The title of this post is quite literally stolen from this post, and it is now time to dissect the value, if you will, of coffee pods. There are many different forms of coffee machine out there. When I worked for a major sofa retailer, we had a coffee machine that was less pod, more… […]
How do you want to retire? What a question! I want to retire with a comfortable nest egg in the bank, and maybe a small measure of fame (and additional fortune) from my book(s). I can’t begin to quantify how likely that goal is to achieve, but it’s certainly how I want to retire!
What’s the oldest thing you own that you still use daily? Hmm. Hmmmmmmm. It could be the TV. It does pretty much get used every day. It’s at least 10 years old, if not slightly older, but still works absolutely fine. Its exact usage varies; it is largely used for gaming, though there are quite […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
Ever since I was a cub, I have generally speaking been fond of swimming. I don’t do it often, but when I do, I enjoy it. I consider myself a reasonably confident swimmer, and I have few qualms about going out into the sea when at the beach (well, when I’m somewhere warm, with clear […]
