Sentences are not as such either true or false.


DIRIGIBLE ALERT! At home in Geilston Bay. July 2010.

Part three of the 100 Question Meme!

21. WHO IS THE LAST PERSON YOU MADE MAD?
Henry, but it wasn’t too major.

22. DO YOU SPEAK ANOTHER LANGUAGE?
Not if you expect anybody else to understand me.

23. WHAT WAS THE FIRST GIFT SOMEONE EVER GAVE YOU?
I don’t know.

24. DO YOU LIKE SOMEONE?
Sure, I like a few different people.

25. ARE YOU DOUBLE JOINTED?
Technically, there is no such thing as “double jointed”. If by “double jointed” you mean “Do you have hypermobility in the joints in you hand?” Then yes, I am double jointed hypermobile in my hands.

26. FAVOURITE CLOTHING BRAND?
I am not sure that I have a favourite. I buy a lot from Cotton On for Henry and Ezra.

27. WHAT’S YOUR DREAM CAR?
You would have to ask Jennifer, she’s the pilot.

28. WHAT COLOUR IS IT?
What colour is what? The car? Anything but yellow…

29. WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE KIND OF EXERCISE?
Making love.

30. WOULD YOU FALL IN LOVE KNOWING THAT THE PERSON IS LEAVING?
I am not sure that one has a choice if we are talking about love. If I were in a situation whereby someone “is leaving”, I probably wouldn’t be thinking that love was on the agenda.

That is a great picture.

Your #30 reminded me of a conversation Pete and I had just before we got together. It was along the lines of

Him: I really like you.
Me: I really like you too. By the way I'm about to go to Romania for ages.
Him: The women I like always leave the country.

I guess we're a bit odd, but it worked (and we're at the same end of the same country these days too, even better).

Magpie, it was an interesting time with all of those balloons...

Jackie, sounds like it had a happy ending!

Kris, my son. I gave you the greatest gift. I gave you life. Remember?
And, oh yeah, I educated you.
No thanks needed. You have done me proud!

Lost inside an adorable illusion and I cannot hide, I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside, we could've made it cruising, yeah.

Yes it is Theme Thusday again, and today we are talking GLASS . I've three possible hooks to hang my [glass] hat on with this theme. First, the photo! Yes, it is the river again from an odd angle in an interesting light. You can just make out the bottom, which should tell you that I'm right on the shore. In some ways, the distortion of the stones below the surface reminds me of ye olde glass windows, what they call "cylinder blown sheet glass". You can still find some of this around Hobart these days. Thw second link comes from a trip I took to Venice a few years back. You're probably aware that Venice was (is?) a glass-making centre of excellence. If you have ever been there and taken the tour of the glass factories, you might be familiar with the sheer amount of coloured glass that sits at the bottom of the water there. These fragments of glass have been worn down and had their edges dulled by their time in the water, which makes them ample keepsakes for the ...

Hold me now, oh hold me now, until this hour has gone around. And I'm gone on the rising tide, to face Van Dieman's Land

Theme Thursday again, and this one is rather easy. I am Tasmanian, you see, and aside from being all around general geniuses - as I have amply described previously - we are also very familiar with the concept of WATER. Tasmania is the ONLY island state of an ISLAND continent. That means, we're surrounded by WATER. That should help explain why I take so many photographs of water . Tasmania was for a long time the place where the British (an island race terrified of water) sent their poor people most vile and horrid criminals. The sort of folk who would face the stark choice of a death sentence , or transportation to the other end of the world. Their catalogue of crimes is horrifying : stealing bread assault stealing gentlemen's handkerchiefs drunken assault being poor affray ladies being overly friendly with gentlemen for money hitting people having a drink and a laugh public drunkenness being Irish Fenian terrorist activities being Catholic religious subversion. ...

Happy anniversary baby, got you on my mind

No it is not a webcam, but this photograph was taken a mere forty-five ago on my way in to work. Here you can see a good old fashioned Hobart autumn morning, with the rain pelting down and me getting drenched. This one was taken on the corner of Macquarie and Elizabeth, while I was waiting for the lights to change. Come on Ampelmännchen ! Today is my wedding anniversary, an apparently I need to be showering Jen with leather -related goodies. Va-va-vaVOOM! To you Jennifer, here is a poem I wrote this very morning. Anniversary I love you i love you iloveyouiloveyouiloveyou I LOVE you I love YOU iloveyouiloveyouiloveyou I LOVE YOU iloveyouiloveyouiloveyou Happy anniversary
