My Favourite Personal Tumblr Post of 2008

mabelmoments: I posted the following and this about my Grandfather which I had found online and feastingonroadkill was able to give me the background of the man, Amery, Grandpa stood up to, and unwittingly coloured in family history in a wonderful way for both me and my father. Thank you Feasty and all the best for 2009!: In this excerpt is a wonderful quote: The autobiography of Commander...

Happy New Year

This is the window display in a shop near my home. It took me a *really* long time to understand what it was about… I also like the fondue set sitting next to the blood pressure machine.

Ta muchly, britches Isn’t “ta” (for thank you) a British thing? Do Aussies and Kiwis say it as well? It’s a very English thing. Not even so much British. People in England say it.

Hmm. Is Mr Feastingonroadkill Wrong About Hamas?

feastingonroadkill: Maybe, maybe not. Time to do some more checking though. Via here: “In the five years that I have been visiting Gaza and the West Bank, I have met hundreds of Hamas politicians and supporters. None of them has professed the goal of Islamising Palestinian society, Taleban-style. Hamas relies on secular voters too much to do that. People still listen to pop music, watch...

For Mabel

I listen to BBC Radio 4 all day every day. When I say listen, I mean that the radio is on, and I am doing other things… I tune in and out, and sometimes feel I haven’t really been listening at all. Then someone will mention something in conversation… and I will kind of know something about it, but not be able to give any real details. But today. Today I made sure I paid...

new theme

So, I got a new theme… and have tinkered around at the edges. But it seems awfully wide to me. Hidden in the code is a funny little message saying to stop using IE. I found it amusing, until I checked to see what it looked like in IE…. bit wonky. So, Stop using IE. Also, the default font is comic sans. So I might change it. But, I am immensely pleased that all those long and...

The Case for Pardons

jeffmiller: Tucker Carlson makes the case for pardons. Here’s part of it: Who should get pardoned? Contrary to myth, there aren’t a lot of innocent people on death row. But there are a quite a few guilty people who ought to be forgiven. Last week, for example, Bush pardoned a 50-year-old Missouri farmer named Leslie Owen Collier. In 1995, Collier accidentally poisoned three bald eagles. An...
