Say you love me

Dessie sings for Tasha

I’VE WAITED AS LONG AS I CAN (Hylo Brown) I’ve waited for you and I’ve always been true, But this waiting no longer I can stand. I know you’ve had time, dear, to make up your mind. I’ve waited as long as I can. CHORUS:

I’ve waited for you to say you love me, say you love me And longed for the day you’d take my hand. I asked again last night for your love so divine. I’ve waited as long as I can. Done all I can do; said all I can say. Oh, why can’t I make you understand? I’ve wanted you for mine but I’ve wasted my time. I’ve waited as long as I can.

CHORUS Now I’ll just say goodbye. The tears fall from my eyes, For you have made it plain that I can’t win. No one will ever know the pain the that I’ve been through. I’ve waited as long as I can.

CHORUS

Jabberwocky

I have just been reminded of this by @JadeVarden

Jabberwocky

By Lewis Carroll 1832–1898 Lewis Carroll

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:

All mimsy were the borogoves,

And the mome raths outgrabe.

“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!

The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!

Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun

The frumious Bandersnatch!”

He took his vorpal sword in hand;

Long time the manxome foe he sought—

So rested he by the Tumtum tree

And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,

The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,

Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,

And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through

The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!

He left it dead, and with its head

He went galumphing back.

“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?

Come to my arms, my beamish boy!

O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”

He chortled in his joy.

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:

All mimsy were the borogoves,

And the mome raths outgrabe.

Dealing with Change

I’ve been through so many changes over the last decade I’m no longer sure what day it is.

I’ve lived in Florida, Doha (twice), UK, Chengdu China, Abu Dhabi and Almaty Kazakhstan. Ten jobs, two wives and lots or gorgeous friends!

So when I saw this I had to share…

” How do you deal with change?

Most people hate change. Look at the worldwide uproar every time
Facebook or Empire Avenue do a little format change.

Here’s the interesting fact: If a change is seen as an ending, we
usually hate it.  (Losing a job, a program ends or even death.)
When change is viewed as a beginning, we usually like it.  (Getting
a new job, discovering a new restaurant, having a baby.)

But here’s the fascinating thing about that interesting fact…

In reality, EVERY change offers both an ending and a new beginning.
It is your view of the world – your perspective – that determines
whether or not you see that.

I was so depressed when the tax authorities seized my business.
But if that didn’t happen, I would still be slaving 14 hours a day
in a dead-end restaurant.  And I can truly say that about every
“bad” change that happened to me.

And so can you.

Just some of you don’t know it yet. But it’s true. Every change and
every challenge offers an opportunity…

If you’re looking for it.  Are you?

Science jokes

How Many Will You Get?

1. I’m reading a great book on anti-gravity. I can’t put it down.

2. I have a new theory on inertia but it doesn’t seem to be gaining momentum.

3. Why can’t atheists solve exponential equations? Because they don’t believe in higher powers.

4. Schrodinger’s cat walks into a bar. And doesn’t.

5. Do you know the name Pavlov? It rings a bell.

6. A group of protesters in front of a physics lab:
“What do we want?”.
“Time travel”
“When do we want it?”.
“Irrelevant.”

7. What does a subatomic duck say? Quark!

8. A neutron walks into a bar and asks how much for a beer. Bartender replies “For you, no charge”.

9. Two atoms are walking along. One of them says:
“Oh, no, I think I lost an electron.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, I’m positive.”

10. An optimist sees a glass half full. A pessimist sees it half empty. An engineer sees it twice as large as it needs to be.

Thanks to Geoff Mac for this…

An Israeli doctor says:
“In Israel, medicine is so advanced that we cut off a man’s testicles,
put them on another man, and in 6 weeks, he is looking for work.”

A German doctor says:…
“That’s nothing, in Germany we take part of a brain, put it in another man, and in 4 weeks he is looking for work.”

A Russian doctor says:
“Gentlemen, we take half a heart from a man, put it in another’s chest, and in 2 weeks he is looking for work.”

A British doctor laughs:
“You all are way behind us!
Five years ago,
we took a man with no brains, no heart, and no balls and made him Prime Minister.
Now, the whole country is looking for work!”

Kick up the arse

I need a kick up the arse!

I finished ‘Trans-Uranic Elements; The Dark Side of Uranus’ two months ago, but still haven’t got round to putting out a kindle version. Probably because I am too lazy to make a cover.

Though I am also working on ‘St. Nedds’ a school based story in which a Physics teacher gets his revenge on a Fuckwit Headmistress with the help of some Sloths and a Proboscis Monkey.

And then there are the three Inspector Flaange novels…
