Not A Pub Crawl

Today is your last day to take the five question reader survey. Click here. I hope to have the results compiled for you next week. I have an addiction. I can’t resist the printed word. If there is text available I read it. It doesn’t have to be something that I am interested in either. […]

Star Trek at 50

Don’t forget that my reader survey ends tomorrow. I really would like your feedback and it will only take a couple of minutes. You can find it here. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xv3g1h_star-trek-tos-2x25_shortfilms I noticed a few days ago that Thursday was the 50th anniversary of the initial broadcast of the first Star Trek television show. I thought about […]

Connundrum

I came across a page on Facebook recently filled with memes created from “classical” art. Some were crude, some were silly, but others I found quite funny. Those ones I will post here over the next little while. That way you don’t have to wade through the dross  – I’ve already done it for you. […]

The Modern Translation

Christian Mingle

They make movies with the flimsiest of premises these days. There are films based on books, on comics (excuse me, I mean graphic novels), on true stories, on news events, and on video games. So I guess a film based on a dating website was inevitable. If I had seen Christian Mingle in the theatre […]

The Warning

I take computer security pretty seriously. I have anti-virus software and do regular scans and backups. I try to avoid questionable websites. Over the years I have picked up the occasional virus from mis-typing (amazing how creative the crooks are; misspelling “Google” caused me problems once). But I’ve come across nothing I haven’t been able […]

Nahum’s Tomb

Anyplace else they would make this into a major tourist attraction. In Alqosh I didn’t see any signs to indicate what was there. In a ruined synagogue, open to the elements, is the tomb of the Old Testament prophet Nahum. The stone tomb is covered by a tarpaulin of sorts. This is not on the […]
