Art in Hearth: Hello Goodbye!
http://artinhearth.blogspot.com/2010/06/hello-goodbye.html
Wherein two art historians and their three kids live in a small town in Brittany for a semester. Tuesday, June 29, 2010. Case in point: here is Oliver demonstrating the escargot tool kit to little David, who will also have a birthday here, and will discover King Arthur's forest, and will taste of ice creams, and see castles, and dream of knights. Surely the Breton good-bye, Kenavo, entails seeing each other again. Anne F. Harris. June 30, 2010 at 5:36 PM. Anne F. Harris. July 1, 2010 at 10:05 PM. Geoffre...

Art in Hearth: December 2009
http://artinhearth.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Wherein two art historians and their three kids live in a small town in Brittany for a semester. Thursday, December 31, 2009. The results did not disappoint. Oliver thought pretty highly of his mousse au chocolat as well. We then visited Notre-Dame du Roncier, the local church, complete with c. 800 miracle, famous 15th century patrons (Olivier (! Eleanor should give him a scolding! Anne F. Harris. Tuesday, December 29, 2009. It's clearly a chain, but it was swell nonetheless: welcoming to kids (I still t...

The Long Middle Ages. Depe nding on who you ask, the Middle Ages began in the 5th century (many people date the beginning at the sack of Rome in 400 CE) and ended in the 15th century (many people date the end at the beginning of the Protestant Reformation; the German reformation began in 1517 when Luther nailed his 95 theses on the Wittenburg door). That's about 1000 years of Medievality. Nu scylun hergan hefaenricaes uard. Metudæs maecti end his modgidanc. Uerc uuldurfadur swe he uundra gihwaes. Lo, ye,...

Fantastic Voyage: A Nigerian Pharisee?
http://simonthomson.blogspot.com/2011/06/nigerian-pharisee.html
Monday, 27 June 2011. I’m sure all can agree, whatever our internal faiths and external politics, that Jesus. As constructed in the gospel texts) was a pretty wise chap. One of my favourite stories he told (or is it something he comments on while watching? Not sure) is about two chaps going to the Temple for a good old pray. I think that’s quite close to the bit where he smacks the disciples down for shooing children away from him, and quite rightly so. Now I’ve no real objection to a good chunk of...

Fantastic Voyage: July 2010
http://simonthomson.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, 29 July 2010. Ya kasance dalibai su:. In my previous job (in the UK), about once a week I would read an utterly brilliant little Old English poem called ‘Deor’. It’s quite heart-breakingly sad, and gorgeously written. It runs through a sequence of nasty historical (or mythical) events, with the refrain (it’s pretty unusual in having a chorus line). Þæs ofereode; þisses swa mæg. Wednesday, 28 July 2010. 160; This is generally just a conversation filler; Nigerians we’ve worked with to dat...

Fantastic Voyage: June 2011
http://simonthomson.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, 30 June 2011. All the pretty things. I've occasionally attempted to add pictures to this blog. This largely fails spectacularly, because I can't format them properly using whatever thingy blogger is, and it takes a lifetime of the earth to upload anything. So now I've put them all somewhere else. Woo! If you want to see any pictures, they're at http:/ vsoinginnigeria.shutterfly.com/. Monday, 27 June 2011. As constructed in the gospel texts) was a pretty wise chap. The other, who’s a tax c...

Fantastic Voyage: Drinking behind the veil
http://simonthomson.blogspot.com/2011/07/drinking-behind-veil.html
Monday, 4 July 2011. Drinking behind the veil. I’m sitting in a bar in Kafanchan called Lady G’s. It’s named after the owner: a young, dynamic, determined and beautiful Igbo woman called Gloria. As far as I know, she’s not ennobled.). In front of me on the plastic table are three bottles of Gulder, one still half full. Beside my glass, three lumps of animal flesh, largely skin and fat, squat in a china bowl, oozing silently into the dregs of my pepper soup. Each time this happens, they are berated: Bimbo...

Cheeseburger Brown: The Christmas Robots | Thomas Eaves
https://thomaseaves.wordpress.com/2008/12/19/cheeseburger-brown-the-christmas-robots
A Creative Commons Reader’s Blog. December 19, 2008. Cheeseburger Brown: The Christmas Robots. So John Sundman, author of Acts of the Apostles. Has recently released an HTML version of his next work, The Pains. A collaborative work with Cheeseburger Brown. Other stories on there. Which I think is only decent. But then, if everyone were decent, we wouldn’t need laws at all, would we? For my next post I’ll be reading his book The Bikes of New York. Keep reading, keep writing. Laquo; Peter Watts: Maelstrom.
