Farmer Ted's Porch: It's Fang-tastic..!

http://farmertedsporch.blogspot.com/2010/08/its-fang-tastic.html

Various musings as seen from the rocking chair here on my porch. Wednesday, August 25, 2010. I'm really hooked on HBO's " True Blood. I brought Season 1 of the show here with me on DVD and used it to glamour other unsuspecting viewers with it's rather salacious drama. I've downloaded Season 2 on iTunes and even though it's turned a bit more soap-ish and B-grade during the season, I love it just the same. And I am discriminating, finding vampire dramas like "Vampire Diaries" and the Twilight Saga. Observi...

Farmer Ted's Porch: Midsomer m*rders...

http://farmertedsporch.blogspot.com/2010/09/midsomer-mrders.html

Various musings as seen from the rocking chair here on my porch. Monday, September 06, 2010. I had a chance to actually be at a village fete a few weeks ago that put me in mind of what you would see during a production of " Midsomer Murders. Although in this case it was a less a matter of finding a body in the car park and more guessing the value of "antiques" piled on several tables as judged by two professional appraisers. Come on Ted, get back on the blog Train :). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Farmer Ted's Porch: Fear on the fairground...

http://farmertedsporch.blogspot.com/2010/09/fear-on-fairground.html

Various musings as seen from the rocking chair here on my porch. Wednesday, September 01, 2010. Fear on the fairground. Tomorrow starts an annual event in Adelaide that's over 100 years old: The Royal Adelaide Show. Or as it's been named, The Big Show. Starting as more of a farm exposition it now features not only agriculture exhibits but rides, contests, midways and showbags. Now, I have no problem with this at all; heck it sounds like fun! How these don't give kids nightmares is beyond me.

Farmer Ted's Porch: Weird science? Not for me...

http://farmertedsporch.blogspot.com/2010/09/weird-science-not-for-me.html

Various musings as seen from the rocking chair here on my porch. Friday, September 03, 2010. Apparently it's tough to get students to consider going into science and engineering as a profession. Such was the testimony from Boeing to a US Congressional panel. Uh, "lay people"? Remember when it was considered uber-cool to be a scientist? When " Mr. Wizard. Ruled the airwaves and the WGBH produced "Zoom" always included a segment doing a science experiment. Was more than just a Donald Fagen song.

So Michael Jackson died last week and the world seems to be either expressing keens of grief. Or wallowing in the ghoulish commercialism. The actress passed away after a brave battle with cancer at the same time as Michael Jackson and got buried (pardon the pun) in the hype surrounding his demise. As Jackson and from the same cause. Let's take a look at a few facts:.

Various musings as seen from the rocking chair here on my porch. Wednesday, November 19, 2008. Your Farmer Ted sucks at social networking on the internet. To me, it's one of those "big things" that will go the way of others like Internet Relay Chat (anyone remember using IRC. But not only has it been identified as one of the top 10 IT disruptive technologies. But it seems like everyone I know says incredulously "YOU don't have a Facebook page? Guess I've been looking at this thing all wrong. Why do clock...
