Next to ingratitude the most painful thing to bear is gratitude.

Tuesday Q and A!


When is it time to stop calculating risk and rewards and just do what you know is right?

You should always do what is right, but only a fool chooses to go about that task without some calculation of risk, reward and potential repercussions.

Are you holding onto something that you need to let go of?

What do you reckon? Of course I am! I’m only human after all.

What does your joy look like today?

My joy looks a lot like ease, competence and confidence. It’s got a good bronze tinge on the skin, powerful legs and a cuts a mean jib.

Is it possible to lie without saying a word?

People do it every single day. Examples? “Has anyone got any comments or questions?”

You can breathe underwater or be able to fly. Which one would you choose and why?

Good question. I’m confident that flying would be very hard work, especially at 195 centimetres and 84 kilograms. I shall breathe underwater and make a fortune in the magic business!

You will receive ten million dollars, but you need to spend one million dollars in 24 hours to receive the other nine million tax free (and you can’t tell anyone what you’re doing). What do you spend it on?

How many Bitcoins can you buy for a million dollars? (Looks it up). Apparently, I can buy ₿100.03 for AUD$1,000,000. That doesn’t seem much, but it would put me in the position of owning ₿1000.31 once I get my grubby little hands on the lot.

Would you like to be a child again?

Not really, but if I did have the chance, I’d do a lot of things very differently! I made a lot of mistakes in the first 17 or so years…

What is the first thing you do when you get in your car?

I think, “Wait a second, I don’t even drive. This isn’t my car!”

Would you post a link to your first ever blog post?

Well, it would be tricky, as it was an old GeoCities page from 1997. Failing that, there is this one: http://thiswillhurtme.blogspot.com/2007/02/testing.html


What is the most disgusting habit some people have?

Blissful ignorance.

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
