Jules’s Favourite Comb

An unusual post? Perhaps……but still if a simple thing, like a comb can remain a favourite for over 25 years then there is something to be said about it eh?

I remember finding my first ‘Slim Jim’ comb ( KENT OF UK ) at Robinsons Mall and so named I believe, because it is only 120mm long by approx 15mm wide….Oh [...]

TMC – To My Collection! Woo hoo!

Movie – The Proposal

Starring: Sandra Bullock, Ryan Reynolds, Malin Akerman, Craig T. Nelson
Director: Anne Fletcher
This is one of those romantic comedies that may not appeal to everybody.  I very much enjoyed it even though I would prefer to wait for the DVD! Why?  Because of two or more badly cut scenes here in the movies!  Not sure [...]

Ms.Venezuela is Crowned Miss Universe 2009

Congratulations to Stefania Fernandez!
When all the contestants were on stage together, I thought to myself. “OH BOY! the Judges sure have a very difficult time this year!” Because there were a whole lot more gorgeous contestants out this year.  But when they narrowed it down to the fifteen, I was disappointed with some of their [...]

Lady With The Mystic Smile

La Giocondo
Why then does the ‘Lady of the Louvre’ have such a dull, monochromatic appearance today?

It is super lightweight [...]

A Letter To The ‘Warden’

Dear Ben,
I am not too certain if that is indeed your name, because I am very much better with faces.  And so if I am at all mistaken then I sincerely apologize.  You might find it a little odd that I am writing to you, even though in all likelyhood you would never get to read this letter.  This I [...]

Wolfram Alpha Is Great!

 
 
Wolfram Alpha has been available since May 2009 though I didn’t quite know how great it was till I really started fooling around with it trying to get answers to currency conversions, percentages etc etc etc.
So what is wolfram alpha all about, is it another search engine?
No. It’s a computational knowledge engine: it generates output by [...]

Sunday Mass Gone Wrong For Me!

I was thinking of not talking about this incident but the more I think about it, the more upset I get!  So I think after writing about it and with a little reflection over a few days I might get to see it differently or even more clearly…..
I was attending the 1100am mass with the [...]
