Creationist Evidence

This is funny in a very conceited way.

Thursday Thirteen

 Tracey suggested 13 childhood memories but I've had several attempts at this and it just comes across like I'm a whinging git.  Plus I had real trouble remembering 13 things.  So I'm going to leave it for a while.

Mas suggested a lot of things:

13 things (that mean something) on your desk, (shelves or noticeboard/pinboard/wall/bag) ? (oh, that's similar to the 13 things in the room you're in which was suggested. Hmm)

13 decisions that changed your life?

If money was no object, 13 places you would rather live.

13 things that keep you going when the world's against you.

13 (bad) things that the world always seems to throw at you.

13 truths you've learned.

13 secrets you've not told.

13 of the best gifts ever given or received by you.

13 people you would bring back from the dead and meet if that was something that could be done.

13 food or drink items we might not expect you to like, but you do.

13 hours in one day.

13 mistakes you regret and

13 mistakes you do not (regret)

The first has sort of been done already and the second is very tricky for me because I'm in a philosophical mood and surely every decision made (or not) changes your life in some way.

Anyway I've settled on "If money was no object, 13 places you would rather live. "

These aren't in order.

1. The moon.
2. In a castle on a cloud.
3. Next door to Michelle.
4. Not too far from Chloe.
5. In Cardiff.
6. In London near all the London bloggers.
7. Under the sea in a glass (or at least transparent) house.
8. Very high up on a glacier in Switzerland.
9. The North pole.
10. The lowest point of the grand canyon.
11. Canada.
12. A fantasy world populated with dragons, unicorns and creatures out of legend.
13. Right where I live now.

Coffee anyone?

I've just poured (not spilt, poured) coffee all down my front.

Do you think this might be an indicator that I should cut down?

A late one - Big Brother Day 3

Deviating from the regular *ahem* Thursday Thirteen somewhat I'd like to suggest thirteen methods of not watching Big Brother.

1. Stab knitting needles in your eyes.
   
2. Sew your eyes shut using cat gut.
   
3. Drink strong liquor constantly for the next three months.
   
4. Travel somewhere remote to work 16 hour days helping to save endangered animals from extinction.
   
5. Fight a guerrilla war against Andy Duncan, chief executive of channel 4 from the hills outside his house.
   
6. Spend every waking moment running in rural areas.
   
7. Hibernate until it's over.
   
8. Fall down a well.
   
9. Bury yourself in ice.
   
10. Get on the show yourself.
    
11. Break into the Big Brother house and gun down all those screeching harpies till their all dead.
    
12. Set off a large enough nuclear explosion to create an EMP pulse to knock out all electronic devices in the UK.
    
13. Curl into a foetal position and refuse to move until it's over.
    
    

Feathered Energy

 Feathers with frogs on.  How cool is that?

Some Jokes

What holiday is strictly observed by all birds?
Feather's Day!

What did the parrot say when she fell in love with the frog?
Polly wants a croaker!

Sitting on a branch overlooking the parking lot, the pigeons watched as a Mercedes pulled
in below them. "What do you think?" one bird said to the other. "Should we put a deposit on that car?"

RIP 20Six

I've just deleted my first ever blog.

It's quite a sad moment for me.

For those of you who have abandoned blogs in the past, how long did it take for you to delete them?

Mature

I just had a lovely rant about estate agents over on WordPress.  During my rant I created a Mr Man to represent the smarmy git who is my estate agent.  I thought I'd share the link to the Make Your Own Mr Men site.

Please share your creations.

I don't blog here enough

"13 things you would do if you suddenly won the lottery" as suggested by the ever so clever and super strong Michelle.

This is a tricky one for me because I live such a perfect, charmed life that I want for nothing.  Honestly.

1. Pay off my mortgage.
2. Get tutors for the kids and for me.
3. Pay off my friends' mortgages.
4. Buy a huge house to live in with annexes for family members who are getting on a bit or just like to visit.  It needs to have lots of land for the horses.
5. Buy some horses.
6. Leave a £1000 tip for the first person to give excellent service in their job.
7. Buy a book shop.
8. Quit working for other people.
9. Buy Chinese food every night just to see how long it takes for The Hildy to get sick of it.
10. Learn lots of different languages starting with French, German, Japanese and Italian.
11. Travel the world.  All of it.
12. Fund an Atheist School where only Atheist's are allowed to attend just so I can annoy the Catholic School down the road and get in the papers for being a git.
13. Buy lots of houses and let homeless people live in them rent free.

MicroSith

The Dark Lord of the MicroSith has struck again.  No, not the new Pope but Bill Gates.

Did you know that when you purchase a new PC with an OEM license of Office 2007 on it you don't get an Office installation CD. 

That's right.  No installation CD. 

This means that when your PC crashes or gets infected with the latest icky bad and naughty virus and you have to perform a fresh install you will lose the installation of Office and won't be able to reinstall it without buying a new version (at twice the original price) or taking it to a "system builder" and paying them to install it for you.

What rotters.  I think MicroSith are even greedier than estate agents.
