By now it should be thoroughly apparent to my followers that I have little patience for creationism. It’s an unscientific idea that undermines efforts to understand the world we live in. To be a creationist you need to first ignore fields of study like geology, biology and astronomy. You need to be capable of either […]
Today I’m taking a look at my favourite superhero show. Superheroes are flavour of the month, at least in cinema, and recently several TV shows have popped up to either tie into existing universes, or create new ones that ride on the coattails of the movies. One of the shows that I like is Agents of […]

I won’t lie. This is rather exciting.
Today we’re taking a look at the TV show with the best lines. I don’t know whether this means the show consistently threw up good dialogue, or if we’re looking for the singular best lines in the show. If we assume the first premise, then we have a few options. The ultra violent show Spartacus […]
If you’re one of my American friends or followers, you might be interested to see some details on how President Obama has shaped your country over the course of his two terms. Perhaps unsurprisingly, you won’t find this data on pro-GOP sites.
Following on from yesterday’s question of TV relationship, comes the relationship we love to hate the most. This is a little easier. The relationship between Vic Mackey and almost any other character in The Shield could be defined by Mackey’s metaphorical dick-waving in a bid to prove himself as the alpha male. He would break […]
Today’s entry is favourite TV show relationship. Not necessarily an easy one. If we’re talking about romantic relationships, then I’m struggling to look past Rachel and Ross from Friends, but I also need to give a nod to the slow-boiling relationship between Kira and Odo in Deep Space Nine. An honourable mention goes to the […]
In the context of the championship, Silverstone represented a reset button. There is effectively nothing between the Mercedes duo of Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton as we prepare for the second half of the season. Hamilton took his 47th career win, having also taken his 55th pole on Saturday, and now has four wins in […]
There’s a notion out there which is built upon prejudice and the misrepresentation of facts. Whether this is done deliberately or not, I cannot say. There is a notion among conservative religious right types that marriage is ‘owned’ by the Church, and the Church is subsequently owed a say in the gay marriage debate. They […]
In the not so distant future, I will have been blogging at Meerkat Musings for TEN years. That's sort of scary. I never set out to reach a milestone like that, but ten years on, Meerkat Musings feels like my home-on-the-web, so to speak. #BloggingCommunity
Now, this I find difficult. Of those I have tried, which admittedly is not many, I am rather fond of McDonald's fries, though Burger King's have grown on me.
Do you vote in political elections? You can bet your ass that I vote! Ever since I was a young meerkat, I have regarded exercising my right to vote as an important civic duty. I always vote in general elections, and try to vote in local elections too. I can understand why some people abstain, […]
