The center of every man's existence is a dream.


Upon watching this catamaran sail out to sea, Henry commented that one day he'd own one. Only his would be eight times as large and have its own pool and roller disco!

Could you please request Henry to give me a ride also in his boat?

I like to think of Henry as being far too young and innocent for such materialistic thoughts.
Kris McCracken said…
Yamini, he didn't name names, but he indicated that she might be Indian...
Kris McCracken said…
Uma por Dia, I hope so too. I might get a run too!
Kris McCracken said…
KL, I will put it to him.
Kris McCracken said…
Frank, unless it involves chips, I might agree with you...

Kris, show Henry some little boats and tell him you can go far away with them. All is possible. And you don't need much to be happy at sea.
Where does Henry want to go?
Have you been out on the sea with him?
yamini said…
Did he really???? :-)))

So when is he coming to India, then?
Kris McCracken said…
Carola, there are seamen through the McCracken line, so he has it in his blood. We haven't really been out yet, but plan to SOON.
Kris McCracken said…
Yamini, as soon as we save up the air fare...

If you want to be loved, be lovable.

Henry admires the view.

Ah, Joe, you never knew the whole of it...

I still have the robot on the job. Here you can see the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery . And here is a poem: Soliloquy for One Dead Bruce Dawe Ah, no, Joe, you never knew the whole of it, the whistling which is only the wind in the chimney's smoking belly, the footsteps on the muddy path that are always somebody else's. I think of your limbs down there, softly becoming mineral, the life of grasses, and the old love of you thrusts the tears up into my eyes, with the family aware and looking everywhere else. Sometimes when summer is over the land, when the heat quickens the deaf timbers, and birds are thick in the plumbs again, my heart sickens, Joe, calling for the water of your voice and the gone agony of your nearness. I try hard to forget, saying: If God wills, it must be so, because of His goodness, because- but the grasshopper memory leaps in the long thicket, knowing no ease. Ah, Joe, you never knew the whole of it... I like Bruce Dawe. He just my be my favourite Austral

Zeal, n. A certain nervous disorder afflicting the young and inexperienced. A passion that goeth before a sprawl.

Here I have tried my hand at the homemade sepia-toned photo. I wasn’t happy with the way that the sun had washed out some of the colours in the original, so had a bit of a fiddle because I like the look on Henry’s face, and didn’t want to pass on posting it. I have a tip for those of you burdened with the great, unceasing weight of parenthood. I have a new recipe, in the vein of the quick microwaved chocolate cake . Get this, microwaved potato chips . I gave them a run on Sunday, Henry liked the so much I did it again last night. Tonight, I shall be experimenting with sweet potato. I think that the ground is open for me to exploit opportunities in the swede, turnip, carrot and maybe even explore in the area of pumpkins. Radical, I know. I’m a boundary-pusher by nature. It's pretty simple, take the potato. Slice it thinly (it doesn't have to be too thin, but thin enough). Lay the slices on the microwave plate, whack a bit of salt over the top and nuke the buggers for five minut
