when you see the pyramids across the nile.....



...... and so it seems the world continues to tilt on it's axis......

Lance Armstrong a drugs cheat.... thfra who'd had thought it....

Jimmy Savile a paedophile....thfra who'd had thought it.......

Rio Ferdinand refusing to wear a tee-shirt against racism ....thfra who'd had thought it.....

Yorkshire policemen saying they were coached about to what to put in their statements for the miners strikes 30 years ago.....thfra who'd have thought it

And now the youth of Egypt openly criticising the current ruling regime....thfra who'd have thought it.....


So thank the lord for the return of james bond.... go get em craig..... and of course not forgetting music.... when the world is turning on it's axis.... there is music....


There you are driving in your car, propelled by it's internal combustion engine [which has been more or less in the same format for around more than 100 years] listening to the analog radio [which has been more or less in the same format for around more than 100 years] and on comes a song.... and you get that familiar......what is this song, I must listen again syndrome.... and then Sarah Cox announces it's Jake Bugg ~ Two fingers..... and so when you get home you google Jake Bugg and lordy lordy lordy the old world order is restored and sanity is restored.....

17 years old and he belts out these tunes and you are hooked....you youtube him...... you wikkipedia him........and the ultimate step you don't illegally rip his music [even though it is easy to do, the unlawful nature of such, being a legal technicality], oh no.....instead you order his album with real money, and you know this guy is destined for great things.... don't believe me ?

Listen to this one track [which is not on his debut album]







and if you listened and liked, then check out his web site and check all the informed commentary on this guy....

Jake Bugg....the new Jake Bugg

we sit sometimes bereft.....


we live in a world of such hurt and anguish and yet seemingly powerless to change......



but is face book really the answer though ?

Sure, I realise they mean well, and it is with the best intentions that the authors post their mind ramblings..... but will it change the outcome ?..... will it truely ?

So we see these evils things and yet before our eyes we are also crossed with the beauty of nature....

Man claims it's own omnipotence, believing we change things, like for example......the climate [for the good, so man claims] and yet we cannot change the behaviour of those who pass amongst us in our daily life....where as nature offers such greater things..... how can man claim to be the conquerer of all things wonderful ?...we can't even conquerer those evil creatures in our midst........

So my photo of the day is attributed to the National Geographic....

which tree are you ?
