I am no expert on politics in the US. Don’t get me wrong, I watch CNN, I read up on the candidates, and I am well aware that as America goes, so follows the world, in many areas of life. Lately I have been following both candidates via the miracle of CNN and satellite [...]

BeenUp2.com is NOT my friend
01Aug08That sinking feeling…..
You can tell what a server thinks of you. All you have to do is look at the context-generated ads that Google surrounds you with in a social networking site like BeenUp2.com - a site that I was really digging……until today.
You see, my gripe is this, when I log-on to some of [...]

My iPod is a great source of teaching for me. Nowadays you can get anything from great sermons, to the Bible, to even learning a new language, or indeed earning a free university degree brought to your eardrums through this wonderful gadget.
I keep my iPod fairly loaded with Podcasts that I tend to listen to [...]
From the "is-this-for-real?" department: Farmer conceals a castle behind bales of hay:
"We moved into the house on Harry’s first birthday, so for the first few years of his life he grew up looking at straw out of the windows.
"We thought it would be a boring view, but, in fact, many birds nested in the straw [...]
The Telegraph is reporting a new phenomenon in crime:
Gangs are said to sneak the dwarves into the luggage hold, hidden inside baggage……….Then, once the journey has begun, the stowaways are free to rifle through the bags of other passengers without fear of being apprehended.
Link to article.
This is just plain bizzare. It certainly gives a new [...]

Getting things done
17Jan08I have taken the plunge and bought David Allen’s "Getting Things Done." After reading all the rage about this book, including countless testimonials on how this organizational system has transformed people’s lives, I succumbed to the herd mentality, got my own copy, and started reading the book last night. I have covered the first chapter, [...]
The most ridiculous British Laws
12Dec07What would happen if a law created centuries ago has never been repealed? Technically it is still law in that country. Although the law books get culled regularly, many laws just stay in place long after their relevance or usefulness. In a recent poll on a British TV programme, the following laws [...]
The video below is a video about Andy McKee drifting/playing his guitar. This guy has a real gift and does wonders on his guitar. How often do you see a guy with real talent and gifting focus-in on what can be done with their talent rather than swallow what people tell them can’t be done? [...]

Time out
29Aug07I am sitting in a Spanish cafeteria mulling over an excellent cup of coffee.
Seeing that it is a public holiday in Gibraltar, but not in Spain, I have cruised into our neighbouring town of La Linea in order to conduct some personal business in relation to the sale of a small plot of land that [...]
I stumbled upon this video of Paul Potts, a contestant in one of Great Britain’s talent TV shows. This video shows Paul, a shy and unassuming mobile phone salesman (think ragamuffin) that turns up at the contest and when asked what he was going to do he said, “to sing opera” - generating dismissive [...]
Mid-year resolution
09Aug07Instead of writing about revival, I think I better go get myself one.
Creativity and the Kingdom
08Aug07Aaron is sitting on the sofa, , drawing.
Dad: “What are you drawing baby?”
Aaron: “I don’t know.”
Wow. Creativity for me is the means to an end (at the best of times). I choose to be creative in order to arrive at a finished product. A child is creative because for him, [...]
On unity
07Aug07I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to
jump off. I immediately ran over and said “Stop! Don’t do it!”
“Why shouldn’t I?” he said.
I said, “Well, there’s so much to live for!”
“Like what?”
“Well … are you religious or atheist?”
“Religious.”
“Me too! Are you Christian or Jewish?”
“Christian.”
“Me [...]
