Verbal Nourishment

After a recent hospital visit shook me awake, I'm convinced it's time to tweak my eating habits. Whilst I remember my teenage were filled with outdoor adventures and wholesome meals like Spaghetti Bolognese, Macaroni Cheese, and Shepherd's Pie, all lovingly prepared by my family, I am now eating less appealingly. Even my after-school snacks in... Continue Reading →

Top 10 Influential Songs

Like many entrepreneurial types, I slide easily into despondency when things don’t pan out as hoped, and self-pity can creep in fast. I don’t smoke or drink much, so music has become my chosen distraction from the harder parts of the day. When I play these tracks, I feel energised and focused - typing faster,... Continue Reading →

Looks like my trusty mobile , the Nokia 3210 , is on its last legs: This morning a message of failing memory displayed across its little window. With a hint of a sigh, the little device said "Get lost! Do I look ready to think about your problems? Your contact list? Take a freaking number... Continue Reading →

Apple iPod Touch Wish List

Without a doubt, the latest range of Apple products on the market have given us two lightweight yet graphic-filled devices. I am talking 'bout the iPhone and Touch. The popularity of both totally amazes me, though not because I don't like them, far from it -- I know of many people who have either purchased... Continue Reading →

Talking, Keeping and Downloading Books

Liz Strauss has turned on the comments-microphone on within her latest article, allowing readers to 'chat' about subjects of interest. The subject today/tonight is 'eBooks'. I've only occasionally read this style of book. As most have discovered, Google have a collection of eBooks (that interest me) available to scroll through with the flick of a... Continue Reading →

Knocking You Down to Build You Up

The future is mine. Get your own. Not even a deity can revoke this license. Moments of fate are merely luck in bad disguises. I have abandoned the 'Fate Program' - it had a fatal error in its coding. Some slacker forgot to install the 'or' factor. Here are some of the new rules. Anybody... Continue Reading →
