Mirrors in space

Being a kid of the science fiction 70’s, any crazy idea about saving the planet shouts out to me straight away. (Tinwell in winter) I read an article in the Independent newspaper, which speaks volumes to me. If you are a fan of science fiction, you’ll be familiar with the idea of saving the planet from an outside threat. This could be any planet. In the film: this Island Earth, the aliens who invaded Earth, did so because they need human ingenuity. The reason being, that their home world was... Sign in to see full entry.

shifting!

Another late shift tonight! Trying my best to stuff as much knowledge of Access and Excel into my head as possible. Hope the Writers Wanted page keeps people flooding in. Thanks to everyone who’s read it! Steve. Sign in to see full entry.

Reviewing and the Media!

I listened to the radio this morning, and the round up of this morning’s papers. One thing struck me straight away. None of them believed in what they were doing. What is worse, these were the same people who write the stuff in the papers, that others review. And I thought to myself, what a wonderful job. To sit there and spurt any nonsense off the top of their heads, and get paid tens of thousands of pounds a year. You don’t have to believe in it or understand it, and they pay you anyway. Their...

Bird Flu climate change and the whole damn thing!

With the news that Bernard Mathew’s turkey farm is now infected with the deadliest strange of bird flue, and old spectre has revisited these islands. Personally I think they have brought this on themselves with factory farming. How can it be healthy to have all those animals cramped up together? Sprayed with chemicals and god knows what. At least if they roam free, nature cures many ills with air and sun. After foot and mouth, many farmers believe the Blair government did it to them deliberately... Sign in to see full entry.

My struggle

Get me out of here! I would take any job at the moment if it meant getting out of that awful place. Even for less money. If only the net based stuff would pick up, I could do it. But still. I’m hoping and praying that my plans on bloggit are going to come through. If I can get enough click through’s I might make a bit, which will make up for the poor sales of books on Ebay. One of the saddest ironies is, that blogging and writing are the only things I really enjoy on the web. One of the few... Sign in to see full entry.

9-5!

9-5! Today I will work from 14.30 hours until 23.30 hours (2.30 pm – 11.30 pm). Once I get home, round about midnight, I have to be up at 5.50 in the morning to go back again. Provided I get to sleep as soon as my head touches the pillow, I might get 4 and half hours sleep. How many people do this sort of job? Now, if I worked at an air base or in the medical profession, it’s understandable. But to clock in at a supermarket, is ridiculous to say the least. Fortunately I only have to put up with...

Torn between 2 Lovers!

Torn between 2 Lovers! I have so many things on the go, it’s a sad shame that only one is paying me any money,and it’s the one I hate the most! In half an hour I have to go to work in the supermarket and waste away a 9 hour day. It’s one of those places that when you walk through the door, you don’t know what’s going to hit you. And all of it bad. They love change for change sake, and every move is a retrograde step. The whole point of the place is to get you to leave. Still, I have many more... Sign in to see full entry.

After an absence of nearly six months, I’m back! I’ve finally found the courage to stump up the 6 bucks and get back on the network. When I first joined, it was free. You just made money by getting people to look at your page. The Webmasters found the money from somewhere and handed it to you. Sure enough, they seem to have run out of money and resorted to getting it out of the writers. There are some people who make a little money out of this, and the best of luck to them. Even the biggest... Sign in to see full entry.

The End of Time?

The End of Time? Last night watched Tony Robinson and his program about the American cult. These are the people who literally believe the book of Revelations, and it’s message about the Armageddon. Now we can all jump to the obvious conclusions. That they are all mad and backward, and not like us O’ so clever people of a higher race. But I was struck by another far more worrying point which the program threw up. One of the preachers said that their problems could not be solved by other means. He... Sign in to see full entry.
