Check Your Six: April 2012
http://35hours.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
After all, it could be James. Tuesday, 10 April 2012. AFK (Or, Our Virtual Grandchildren: Trading First Person Shooters for First World Problems). I must be getting old - I'm starting to worry about today's youth. Or, more specifically, I'm starting to worry about tomorrow's youth. We live in an age where an increasing number of lives in the developed world are becoming increasingly 'virtual'. Something you've probably seen recently is the Google goggles. You remember those, right? At this junction one ...

After all, it could be James. Friday, 6 January 2012. A Book Review/Confession of Sin. I have a dirty secret: I do have a favourite book. My very favourite books. The Hounds of the Morrigan. By Pat O'Shea and Philip Reeve's colossal, magnificent. The finale of which has not once failed to reduce me to tears). I list two works here because I have never been able to choose between the two. I tell myself it's because, as an individual book. The Hounds of the Morrigan. The Hounds of the Morrigan. Is an aweso...

After all, it could be James. Wednesday, 30 January 2013. Hairy Potter and the Magical Thing. Continuing this line of thought, I started to wonder if the cat was thinking about how. I was doing what I was doing. Does my cat recognise that I am a member of a more technologically advanced species than her? Do cats and dogs look at things like cars and TVs and doors and wonder how that works? Or do they just wonder what is happening to them? What about more intelligent animals? Is it their self-awareness?

Check Your Six: Where I am is fine.
http://35hours.blogspot.com/2012/09/where-i-am-is-fine.html
After all, it could be James. Monday, 24 September 2012. Where I am is fine. Since I've come home from university in the Big City (Aberdeen, 250,000 inhabitants) to the village where I did puberty (Broughton, 200 inhabitants) I've been spending a lot of time in the one pub in the village*, the Laurelbank Tearoom. Looking back through my notebook the other night, I found the following:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Spend your precious time better:. There could be snakes in here. Where I am is fine.

Check Your Six: December 2010
http://35hours.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
After all, it could be James. Friday, 31 December 2010. Carnival 2010, or, the story of two lustrums, or, how I stopped caring and learned to tolerate other people. Ten years is a remarkably short space of time. Allow me to wax numerical:. Essentially, on the grand scheme of things, the passing of ten years is about as significant an event as a fart in space (which is essentially what we are anyway). 1 More people (Americans in particular) should watch the film Slap Shot. Good point, sirra. I won't r...

After all, it could be James. Tuesday, 12 April 2011. Beyond Good and Veil. For those who care, I apologise for the length of time between this post and the last. Entropy has occured. This is a stressful atmosphere to be living in day in, day out, so, to try and calm myself down, every morning before I start work I go into Tescos and purchase a salad, some juice, a tasty pastry, and go and sit in the library foyer to read the news and enjoy my balanced meal. I've been to France. It was. Kenza Drider stoo...
