Are you holding a grudge? About? This is interesting. Am I presently holding a grudge? I guess that depends. There are people who annoy me, albeit those people are also people I am putting behind me. There is no sense wasting that most precious of commodities – time – on the ignorant. I have (rather […]
Following on from my post on rivers, I figured that I should definitely do a post about lakes. Lakes are unique in that they can be quite small, or absolutely huge. At their biggest, they rival entire countries for sheer size. For example, the Great Lakes that straddle the US/Canadian border would occupy a territory […]
What does your ideal home look like? Hmm. Hmmmmmmm. My ideal home eh? Well, firstly, location location location! According to Forbes, the best city to live in is the Austrian city of Vienna, which has scooped this particular prize for two years in succession. Vienna scores highly for stability, infrastructure and culture, so parking my […]
Rivers are the lifeblood of so many cities and civilisations. A great many of the largest cities on earth grew around rivers. For example, London sprouted up around the River Thames. The original Dutch settlers to found New Amsterdam (later New York) knew how important the Hudson River would be to their settlement’s long-term survival. […]
This greymuzzle is lamenting the ‘evolution’ of gaming, which has gone from an era where games were once released fully formed, to an age where to have the finished article, or to have any hope of achieving victory, you must pay. Can you imagine plugging in the cartridge for Super Mario Bros or Sonic the […]
What daily habit do you do that improves your quality of life? I don’t think I have any specific habit that I turn to in order to help my day-to-day activities. I sometimes take a vitamin pill, does that sort of thing count? What I should do is exercise more, but that requires a level […]
How would you design the city of the future? This is interesting. Last year, I took part in a research project about cities of the future, and how technology, climate change and politics might shape them. What might be a future city’s agricultural needs? What sort of external and internal transport links would be required? […]
If you’ve trawled the internet for as long as I have, you might have heard of Godwin’s Law. This is the theory that any internet argument or debate will inevitably lead to accusations of one party being a Nazi/Hitler. In some internet circles, referencing the Nazis leads to the declaration that Godwin’s Law has been […]
This prompt has been provided to me by a friend at work, and it goes something like this: It’s the year 2183, and you are the first human to set foot on Mars. When you disembark your craft, you find a photo, and a note. The photo is a selfie, of you, and the note […]
Are they really asking about shoe size, or are they playing upon a popular bit of innuendo? Well, I’m a size nine. That’s definitely shoe size, by the way. You know what they say, big shoes, big socks.
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...
What’s the most fun way to exercise? I know of a fun way to burn off calories, but I’ll not be sharing the details here! I don’t know if I could call any of the standard means of seeking fitness ‘fun’. I’ve been doing regular sit-ups since the start of April, interspersed with a few […]
