All from The Humour Vault Q: What happened to the Pope when he went to Mount Olive? A: Popeye almost killed him! If College Students Wrote the Bible, the Ten Commandments would actually be only five, double-spaced and written in a large font. Two nuns are hard at work painting the monastery. It is very, […]

PS I forgot to mention, I’ve added geographical information to both eutony.net and this page, which means you can jump along to the GeoURL website and find websites that are close to where I live. I should add that there is an added error in the data, so it’s no use turning up at the […]

Well, the phone arrived on Monday, and it seems to be very nice. Small and sleek, yet also fast to use, and I do like the blue edge lights. I haven’t used it in anger yet, as it’s still locked to O2, but the unlock cable is due to arrive on Monday which will free […]

Quick update on recent books. Snow Falling on Ceders Borrowed off a friend at work. Actually really enjoyed it, although it bordered on being a bit too graphic for my liking. Attention all Shipping I don’t think travel books are my favourite genre, but this was a pleasing little read. It felt a bit like […]

Can’t say I rate the O2 website – except on price, I suppose. I ordered the phone, as you know, and got the usual flurry of confirmation e-mails. However, after a few hours, I got another e-mail that informed me said phone was in fact out of stock, that it would be shipped as soon […]

Needless to say I coulnd’t leave my Psalmic musings hanging, so I thought I’d start by doing a Google, and Lo and behold a nice exposition of Psalm 42 came up, by Ray C. Stedman. The whole page is worth reading, but his dealing with verse 7 resonates with my intuitive understanding of what the […]

At our work prayer group this week we were looking at Pslam 42 (As the deer…), and we all found ourselves tripping up over verse 7: Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me On one level I love this verse, as it’s so […]

Hoorah – my new phone is on it’s way. How can this be, you ask? Well, it turns out that O2 have a special web deal of said phone for eighty quid, which includes a free bluetooth headset. Ok so I don’t need a bluetooth headset, but this deal beat the pants off expansys’s 180 […]

On the subject of ‘free verse’ type music, how could I forget to mention Katie Melua? There are nine million bicycles in Beijing That’s fact, It’s a thing we can’t deny Like the fact that I will love you till I die It’s sort of displaying parallelism too – the Old Testament poetic metric of […]

I’ve identified something of a trend in my recent music ‘likings’ – many of them bend or break the traditional rules of rhyme and rhythm. For instance Juliet Turner lyric: I will not be leaving you cos that is not the way I do things Can’t get worse, might get better Has always been my […]
