Today I`m thinking about..

The Vegetable Plot.

Ok you might call them weeds, but I call them "wild companion plants".

Today I`m thinking about..

World Records.

One of the few things that are improved by getting broken, a bit like Showaddywaddy* records.

* Tiger feet.....EEEK.

Today I`m thinking about..

The Seven Deadly Sins.

Gluttony. 
If it`s ok for the rest of the animal kingdom it`s ok for us.
Greed.
It`s not good anymore, just a way of life.
Lust.
Remember What John Betcheman said towards the end of his life when asked if he had any regrets. He replied "Yes I wish I`d had more sex".
Pride.
Sorry but self deprecation is for losers.
Wrath.
Simply solving problems by destroying the cause.
Envy.
Just call it "me time".
Sloth.
Yep you guessed it I can`t be arsed to think of anything.

But nowhere near as quick.

Corporate Speak.

There maybe no "i" in Teamwork, but do not be afraid remind the person telling you this, that it always begins with Tea, so put the Kettle on.

Today I`m thinking about..

Firmware Upgrades.

Just updated the firmware in my DSLR and unlocked a whole load of new features, unfortunately every other picture now contains an ad for Viagra... Dammit.

Today I`m thinking about..

The Iron Age.

That time of life when you realise that you don`t like going out with wrinkly clothes anymore.

Today I`m thinking about..

Limericks.

There was an old man from Warwick,
Who felt randy, but needed a tonic.
So he tried Lysergic Acid,
but the result was decidedly flaccid.

Today I`m thinking about..

Space Arks.

When the Earth eventually sneezes will the Galaxy catch a cold or try an Antibiotic?

Wednesday 4 July 2012

Today I`m thinking about..

The Higgs Boson.

Well, now that the God particle seems to have been found I stongly expect that they will cut the top off the LHC and make the worlds largest pinball Machine.

Today I`m thinking about..

The Olympic Games.

Remember if you haven`t got a ticket, then slapping a number on your chest and trailing behind the last marathon runner probably won`t work.
