I love you

Replace an apple with these words.

Tony Blair

No-one doubts that the world's a better place without Saddam Hussein in power. But they didn't need to go to war to get him out. There were still alternatives. Or so I've heard.

iPad

Too big to fit in your pocket: no keyboard, so balancing the screen is hard, or you have to hold it. Awkward!

Doubt thou that the stars are fire
Doubt thou that the sun doth move
Doubt truth to be a liar
But never doubt that I love

Wasting huge amounts of money on pointless wars is a sign that your power is waning. United States of America, watch out. China - your time is now.

Dear Dhar

I thought that I was different
But then we're all the same
There's nothing more that I can do
And nothing more for you

Sometime you'll have to give it up
You'll have to change your ways
But until then all I can do
Is wait and hope and warn

One New Year's Night you'll look up
And in the sky you'll see
A perfect portrait of yourself
Looking back at me

I thought that I was different
But then we're all the same
There's nothing more that I can do
And nothing more for you

Please try again don't break my heart
You'll do just fine don't worry
Even without trying
You can't help but be a star

Someday you'll look back
You'll see the turning point
Was when you looked at me
Then turned and walked away

I thought that I was different
But then we're all the same
There's nothing more that I can do
And nothing more for you

So try again, please change your ways
Or someday you could kill
With friendly words and an icy heart
Be careful one-time friend

Those shadows in the darkness
They prey at the weak of soul
I wouldn't want for you to fall
So join us in our call

I thought that I was different
But then we're all the same
There's nothing more that I can do
And nothing more for you

Come home my frozen wolf
My once-and-always friend
Coward maybe but still true
Please do not be afraid

I hoped you would have changed
That you'd got over it
But now I see that I was wrong
There's only one last hope

I thought that I was different
But then we're all the same
There's nothing more that I can do
And nothing more for you

Ways to stimulate your Brain

Experience the third dimension - properly.
Birds are far more intelligent than their brain size should give them a right to be. Why? A myriad of reasons, and one of them is: Birds fly. We grounded folk live all to frequently in a world reduced to two dimensional plans of places. Rebel. Live in your birthright as a three dimensional creature.

Learn a new language.
Don't be hemmed in by the way your parents talk! Language is the soul of the human race, and divided we are far more diverse. A language is more than just a set of words: it is the life-blood of a culture. The English-speaking world is far more homogenous than it should be for its size. Europe is far less homogenous than it should be, for its size. Learn a language, learn a life.

Change your route.
Shake up this idle brain of yours! Give it a new set of sights and sounds and smells to deal with! Change your route: change the way you get from one place to another. If you drive, walk Or cycle. Maybe roller-blades are more your speed? Or go down that alley, turn left instead of going straight through... take the scenic route to your destination.

Sense something different.
As above, only in one place. Listen to weird music, find pictures of Aurora Polaris, burn incense, eat insects (clean!), feel petals and leaves and the bark of the largest tree you can find.... expand all your senses, for they are the gateway to your mind.
