Opinion, Cynicism and Dissent. Being the thoughts, woes and life of an average blogger. Tuesday, July 31, 2007. So the other day there was a report that ITV have apologised for a drama about Alzheimer's. Apparently, the scene which portrayed the victim dying in fact showed him slipping into a coma. He died two days later. I'd love to hear the NHS response to. The point is . if there is one at all . that channels apologising for ripping people off by stealing their money is fair enough. But, g...What's ev...

Opinion, Cynicism and Dissent. Being the thoughts, woes and life of an average blogger. Wednesday, October 31, 2007. The Japanese knotweed of festivals. As in an unwelcome import. This really sums it up. Beautifully, for me. I blame E.T. Before that, no-one in the UK went trick-or-treating . it was something those weird colonial types did. We had Guy Fawkes Night. And that's where you have to draw a line. A gang of hoodies. Knocking on someone's front door and demanding money is extortion, isn't it?

Opinion, Cynicism and Dissent. Being the thoughts, woes and life of an average blogger. Thursday, August 30, 2007. Security Check, anyone? I've returned from my self-awarded summer sabatical to find a letter from the police. Not as scary as it sounds: scarier - and in a different way. I'll explain . Shortly after I switched jobs. My previous employer said they'd see if they could stop the check for me, as they needn't pay for it. I thought that was the last I'd hear of it. The most recent letter is remin...

Opinion, Cynicism and Dissent. Being the thoughts, woes and life of an average blogger. Saturday, January 26, 2008. I've just implemented the most excellent Blogger Tag Cloud. It does exactly what it says on the tin. Now if only I could find a way of getting the page title to put the blog name at the end. Links to this post. Wednesday, January 23, 2008. This little piggy stayed at home. Builders, yes: I can see how they might feel offended. Still, it's a variation on banning the thing. Should apologise&#...

Opinion, Cynicism and Dissent. Being the thoughts, woes and life of an average blogger. Wednesday, April 23, 2008. As you can tell, I am not posting here at the moment. To be perfectly honest, I can't decide whether I ran out of inspiration or whether the Great British press have pissed me off so much that I can't think where to start.

Opinion, Cynicism and Dissent. Being the thoughts, woes and life of an average blogger. Monday, April 30, 2007. With the start of NewJob. Now only two weeks away, the roller-coaster of emotion gathers pace. Among the thoughts running through my head - along with "I know I saw a can vending machine . but where will I get coffee from? Is it reasonable to expect communication with the outside world? Is it reasonable to cut workers off from the outside world? Links to this post. Friday, April 27, 2007. All t...

Opinion, Cynicism and Dissent. Being the thoughts, woes and life of an average blogger. Tuesday, January 15, 2008. I do love irony. I have come to the conclusion that this year I will be mostly posting about stupidity and futile jesture. Today's case in point is Tara Brabazon. Professor of Media Studies at the University of Brighton (or Brighton Polytechnic as I knew it). I. Get her point, I really do . but how can she possibly think that banning Wikipedia and Google. Is the right approach?

Happy New Year | Opinion, Cynicism and Dissent
http://twopenniesworth.blogspot.com/2008/01/happy-new-year.html
Opinion, Cynicism and Dissent. Being the thoughts, woes and life of an average blogger. Wednesday, January 02, 2008. It's that time again. I return to work, slightly bewildered and wondering what's new. As usual, the talk is of new resolutions and how this year will be different to the last. Enough of the cod philosphy. Back in the real world, I'm adjusting to having an independent daughter and fighting off mid-life crisis. There are practical considerations, too. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
