I love movies; I mean really, really love movies. I don’t claim to have the best taste in films but I do have a very diverse appetite. I see at least one a week at the cinema and own many hundreds of DVDs that range from the odd horror and art house title to rom . . . → Read More: Oh no it has “Edward” in it!

Twitter, the source of all twits, did a hashtag on ugly baby names. According to the brain trust that is the Twitterverse, these are 50 of the ugliest baby names out there: Alan, Arthur, Barry, Bertha, Betty, Beverly, Billy, Blue ivy, Bruce, Chauncey, Cheryl, Clarence Dolores, Dorcas, Dreshawn, Edna, Edward, Elmer, Gene, Gertrude, Gretel, Gunther, . . . → Read More: What’s in a name? The boy and I were watching 60 minutes on the 20th of March– one of the stories focused on selective reduction (SR) and 3 womens’ experiences with this issue. For those not familiar with the subject matter selective reduction is where one or more foetuses is aborted during a multiple pregnancy. The foetuses are usually . . . → Read More: Selective Reduction Weird this plugin is Won’t let me login to site Posts from Android app Can’t get the dashboard Probably can’t publish this Hijacking to see Last week we talked about Kwirky Kwokkas. I wanted to give this piece a title which indicated it was the next in the ‘Kwirky’ series, but feared my love of alliteration might get me into trouble.

My initial reaction was – this has got to be a joke. Seriously, a man walks in to . . . → Read More: FOF – Is this some kind of joke? I’ve commented about my marketer’s-nightmare-copper-wire-was-invented-by-me-fighting-with-a-retailer-over-a-penny style of shopping before. I have an intense dislike for any shopping trip (at least to an individual shop) that lasts longer than it takes to boil an egg. In this sense, it seems I’d take to online shopping like a duck to breadcrumb-flavoured water, but I don’t. Sure I . . . → Read More: Are You Being Served? I was checking out the internet for ideas for today’s post and I saw sites that made me want to scrub my eyeballs afterwards, numerous cats with improbable musical ability, a huge amount of Atheist/Theist debating and an article that had me saying “Finally science is investigating the things that matter!” but still no joy, . . . → Read More: Inspiration Let’s be honest here, my tolerance level can be rather poor. I can’t seem to put up with idiotic people, slow walkers, constant sniffers, screaming and undisciplined children, and (no big surprise for those who have been subjected to my online rants in the past) awful, mainstream music is my absolute kryptonite.

He had copied the list from the blackboard but then ruled out ‘quokka’ and replaced it with ‘kwokka’.
