http://spriggsblog.blogspot.com/2015/04/erik-larson-and-impending-doom-prequel.html
Idiosyncratic and solipsistic ramblings. Monday, 27 April 2015. Erik Larson And Impending Doom, The Prequel. Quotation of the day Linus Torvalds: the people have spoken.most of it was complete gibberish. I have just finished another, earlier, book by Erik Larson: Isaac's Storm (1999). It's the story of Isaac Cline, the head of the U.S. Weather Bureau in Galveston Texas from 1889 to 1901. Erik Larson is such a great writer that he can make meteorology exciting! Here, lighten up, let's have a playlist:.

Idiosyncratic and solipsistic ramblings. Tuesday, 4 February 2014. Adventures In Modern Drinking. Quotation of the day George Jones: Maybe some folks are alcoholics and others are just voluntary drunks. Maybe some folks drink due to body chemistry and others due to their lazy characters. Maybe some have drinking problems, while others have problems enough to drink. I know you're curious as to why, and i'll tell you one reason. It's because i have friends who work there, i like everyone. On Friday, i drop...

Spriggsblog: Ink
http://spriggsblog.blogspot.com/2015/05/ink.html
Idiosyncratic and solipsistic ramblings. Sunday, 17 May 2015. Quotation of the day: David Baddiel (? Conspiracy theories are how idiots get to feel like intellectuals. Let's talk about ink. I only have one very small tattoo on my body - a treble clef 'way up at the top of my left arm, where hardly anyone ever sees it, and that's okay - it's only important to me, it symbolizes the fact that my life would be unthinkable without music, blah, blah, who cares anyway, right? So the ink reflects the person?

Idiosyncratic and solipsistic ramblings. Monday, 4 May 2015. Quotation Of The Day Clive James: Common sense and a sense of humor are the same thing, moving at different speeds. A sense of humor is just common sense, dancing. Those who lack humor are without judgment and should be trusted with nothing. And my dear friend Jill came in for a drink with her brother, and i bought her one and i was liking the place more and more by the minute (in spite of no Wi-fi). But i wasn't worried: i had it! At this rate...
