Statement to myself

This is more a statement to myself, and not really for anyone else to find any deep meaning in it. Tonight I listened to an old cassette tape from 1990. I was 30 then and it brought back some memories, not all of them good, but everyone important. Here I want to state that I remember that man back then, and I remember the promises I made. To him and to me. I have not forgotten and will never forget. It doesn't matter if I can carry them out, or change them or make any difference. None of that... Sign in to see full entry.

The only Game in town

If you are like me and you have wondered how the hell yoy can make money from all this, you might wonder how. I've been messing about on the net for over 10 years now. When I first began, there was a wall of pyramid sites. They called themselves MLM's and other things, but at the end of the day, they were pyramid selling schemes. In the old days, they would have been called chain letters, and people almost spat on them. I can remember the old Exchange & Mart magazine. This was the wild frontier... Sign in to see full entry.

Web sites

I’ve decided to try and make some money from my dabbling in web sites. Over the years I’ve tried to get various projects off the ground, and up till I’ve made nothing. But things are so bad at work, I have to do something to get out. There are 2 ways to make money. 1) to get loads of traffic and get paid by click-trough’s. 2) to make money from Affiliate marketing. Clicks take tens of thousands, so I doubt if I will even make enough to pay the hosting. But Affiliates likes Clickbank, can turn a... Sign in to see full entry.

Big Brothers X factor Space Race

One way to fund a trip to Mars, would be to have a group of people with cameras on them night and day, a bit like a celebrity TV show. There would be no questions about money, as the sponsorship alone would pay for it. But a constant subscription, would ensure there would be more than enough money for any serious space funding. I think this says something more about us as a society and points to the future and our survival. Sigmund Freud came up with one really good idea. And that was the herd... Sign in to see full entry.

Adsense

I’ve decided to have another go at trying to make a little money from writing articles. Of course you won’t make the money from the articles, but the traffic it generates. Over the years I’ve compiled a list of sites that are worth bothering with. As there are many that are not! The big sticking point in all this is Google and Adsense. They stopped my account for inactivity, as I let it all slip for many years, and I can’t get it back again. Basically they won’t give you an account unless you... Sign in to see full entry.

Small movies

I notice that my efforts to place small movies on this blog are coming to nothing. I like putting up silly little things, as a hobby, but this doesn't seem to work any more. No idea why, it used to, with other photo sharing sites, but no more. Sign in to see full entry.

Better days.

When I look back on my summing up of my life in pictures, I see important points, but very negative ones. The pictures are dealing with places, but some of the most important points of my life have been in films, books and records. When I look at the biggest iconic albums of the past 40 years, I think how they affected me. Pink Floyds’s Dark side of the Moon, was a seminal point in my life. One of those Road to Damascus moments, when the scales fell away from my eyes, and I saw the wonder of the... Sign in to see full entry.

The future of novels?

Battery packed in on the car. Sarah gave us a jump start with the leads. Worried the damn thing will do it again, but I think it’s just the weather. At least it isn’t raining today, but very dull. I just looked at the web site of the writer D M Thomas. He won a whole punch of prizes for the novel The White Hotel. I’ve read 3 of his books, but none of them come up to the Hotel. One thing which struck me, was that, what would it be like if he wrote on Blogit every day, the way we do? What would a... Sign in to see full entry.

Coast 2 coast AM I listen to a guy on Youtube that pirates a channel on the Coast to Coast AM radio show by George Norrey. I’m expecting him to be taken down any day, but it’s good stuff. Now and again it hits on a real subject, not just UFO’s and Bigfoot. One, was about DNA and medical breakthroughs, and one point of view was immortality. There were the usual things thrown at it, like wanting a quality of life, not just an elongation of life. But I thought, if the great and the good could live... Sign in to see full entry.
