I am telling you the TRUTH, I tell you!
It’s 0100 and I hunch like a Golam over a glass of hot lemon and honey. Searing pain in both ears as the liquid passes, a crescendo to the burning pain in my throat that has awoken me each night this week. Tonight my eyes were crusted over so that I could not open them, but at least my nose has stopped bleeding and making horror story scenes in ( Read more... ) -
Today is the Feast of the Cult of Gratitude (Thanksgiving)
The Cult of Gratitude was born in New Zealand, looking back at North America. It celebrates the welcoming and support of a group of hopelessly naïve religious refugees from England by the Wampanoag people and the great Massasoit Sachem. He did not demand they learn to speak the local language, he learned the refugee’s language to better ( Read more... ) -

Janno: Kenno are you in there with Lloyd P. Asparagus? That clanging is driving me crazy! What are you two doing?
Kenno: (Shhhh, Lloyd). Science honey, we are doing science. We are exciting metal alloys into quantum super-positions, in which the alloy can exist as a combination of multiple states corresponding to different possible outcomes ( Read more... ) -
3:00am Wellington time.....
Farley woke me up at 0300 enquiring as to the whereabouts of his beloved Osso Buco bone. We looked around but couldn’t find it. He settled down when I told him that the faster he went to sleep the sooner he could get his leftover dog pizza. He got so excited, he immediately passes out. Mystery about the bone though and it’s a big one too. Could ( Read more... ) -

The Hobbit Hall Report:
The Hobbit Hall Report: Moving into the weekend on a high, of nailing a major back office project in three days, we found the pizza crust to be superior and for the first time in recorded pie history we ate the whole thing in equal portions. That was one good pie.
Saturday brought the conservatory lighting project, with the materials I ordered ( Read more... ) -
The Bloody Past.
Seems there was a lot, not right, about the history I was taught in my youth. I was never a fan, perhaps there is a relation there, so I did not venture far from the prescribed texts. When I did, it was political theory, Mao and Marx, not that I was a great fan, but the material was available and it seemed like there was some opposition to my ( Read more... ) -
The great BBQ sauce adventure of 2014.
Kenno likes his BBQ. No surprise there and what he likes to put on it is, well everything from breakfast (Kiwi BBQ’s all have a griddle plate) to pizza, with a good helping of every flora and fauna in between. Then, there’s bar food night. Well, that’s what we call it. It’s like a holy day or a fete for a great saint, the patron of the best ( Read more... )
