    I'm partial to a good tuna steak. I also like swordfish, shark, salmon, flounder, trout etc.

    My Children's Future In America

    On a more positive note at least the silly idea of socks on heads seems to have shifted to encouraging people to wear them if they want to protect themselves rather than the "my sock protects you, your sock protects me". I have thought for a long time that the reasoning was fatally flawed but...

    My Children's Future In America

    Indeed - since the chance of surviving the virus for those under 50 in generally good health is something like 99.98% the vaccine offers minimal benefit to most people. If people who are vaccinated can still carry a viral load and spread it around the benefit to society is clearly very limited...

    My Children's Future In America

    It is remarkable how people are being increasingly excluded from society for not wanting to take a vaccine that was, at the time mandates were first appearing, not even fully approved by the FDA. And now it appears the push for social exclusion is accelerating, to the point of creating more...

    Chariot of Fire

    Given the context of the passage I don't see any such implication.

    Chariot of Fire

    Why do you go back to Elijah going to heaven in a fiery chariot when Scripture clearly says he was taken up in a whirlwind? If you believe that God created the world by saying "let there be light" and raised Jesus from the dead why is it hard to believe that he could send a whirlwind to take...

    Covid Vaccine Reactions

    There was a time when we treated the flu with chicken soup and bed rest rather than, you know, totalitarianism. It really is bizarre to think of a vaccine so safe we have to be threatened with societal exclusion to get us to take it, to protect us from a disease so deadly most people don't even...

    Best Birthday Cake?

    When my mother was still living she used to bake a very rich fruit cake. It was the sort of thing that she'd start preparing literally months in advance, soaking dried fruit in brandy and turning it every once in a while. Then, once the cake was baked, it was best left to sit for a time -...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    I took a longer walk today while my wife was generally tinkering around with her plants. I wasn't breaking any speed records - I really wanted to run the route to aim for a new personal best but have felt a bit odd the last couple of days so decided not to push it too hard. Now my wife is...

    Awwww..... it looks like I'm going to have to fix this thing myself then :( Chances are it's just a bit of crud in the works again, but this thing seems like it's designed to be as difficult as possible to do anything with. To change the oil you have to empty all the gas out of it, then lie it...

    Cake Rolls

    I had something made with some kind of vanilla cream and raspberries. I bought it when I was visiting a village many years ago. I think they called it a jelly roll? It was delicious.

    Covid Vaccine Reactions

    A friend of ours has a daughter in her 30s who had the shot (I forget which one) and after the first dose she had a headache for 15 days that she couldn't shift. She doesn't want the second shot becauase she's afraid of what it might do, but the alternative is losing her job. Because science.

    Nice walk this morning, and just got finished mowing the lawn. The mechanism that operates the drive to the wheels on the mower has glitched again. Last time it happened I was able to fix it, but I can't remember what I did. I think then the trouble was that something had gotten into the works...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    My wife had a friend around so I chatted with her for a bit and then cleared off so the ladies could have some time. I went for another run - a slightly easier pace than yesterday but still needed to slow to a walk for a couple of minutes in the middle of it. Even so it's good to be walking for...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Didn't feel like a great morning. My mood hasn't been the best lately and rainy days don't help. When the rain stopped I went for a run - my tracker's suggested workout was to pretty much go for it, so I went for it. Sadly I went for it too hard and had to keep slowing to walking pace to get my...

    Taught the older kids Sunday school class for the first time. I had been helping my wife with the youngest class but really struggle with that age group because it's so hard to get anything much from them. The older class (ages around 9-13) can actually discuss things and give some useful...

    I didn't know any of them, I think they had all died by the time I was born.

    Got a cupboard sorted out and some stuff put into a better boxing system than it was before. I also went for a run and somehow managed to shave a full minute off my PB. I'm still not quite sure how. I also think it's safe to say my heart rate chest strap is malfunctioning. Last time I went out...

    Ah, OK. I'm not familiar with the web site and the small print looked like it was something else rather than a pulsed supply. I took a quick fiddle with it and with no particular strategy managed to get the voltage to over 500. It's interesting to see the shape of the voltage wave on the trace -...
