Imagine this scenario. You are down the pub, you venture into one of the taboo subjects with some other regulars at the bar. Now, they're not your friends, they are just people that turn up in the pub on a regular basis, you know their first names. You might know roughly where they live, you...

Most people have this most of the time. An emotion rises in you, takes the fore and then you've lost. You lose your tranquillity, and become stressful! It happens to everyone, I even recall Eckhart Tolle saying that he was in a checkout queue and nearly lost his sense of presence! Next time you...

I am coming to the realisation that most people's pain, is actually caused by themselves. I'm not talking about physical pain, I'm talking about worry, anguish, hate, jealousy... I'm sure the list is never-ending. Eckhart Tolle has made me see that in myself, and I think that's an important...

I do like the look of that Jon, but here's the thing, I have had so many sites move the Goalposts on me, that I prefer to be more in control of my destiny, if you know what I mean! Currently I'm moving sites I've built on the Old Google sites onto the new Google sites, but now I'm discovering...

I had a dream! Note:- A dream, not a nightmare, well I'm not sure, let Me Explain. I don't remember the before, the after was, I woke up and that was the bit that is the nearest to a nightmare, but I'll get to that later. There was a door but not a door, a curtain but not a curtain, a sheet...

Wow that's impressive! Change is a double-edged sword, if you stay, it's comfortable if you move on not so comfortable, but a better challenge.

>>> Perhaps in future we will get a six pack of concentrate Coke sachets! <<< There is something similar, it's called SodaStream and I think there are other similar devices. I used to have one, 40 odd years ago...

LOL! Kitty Flannigan's 488 rules for life!

There was a group called "Ecademy" which was set up by Thomas and Penny Power. There was always one or two threads running and people getting hot under the collar. I even had a guy threaten me quite seriously because he was against bottled water. He had set up a business to sell empty reusable...

I'm wheeling Dr Jordan B Peterson out again! He was asked what he thought about global warming, he's a bit all over the place, but I think he made some good points.

I find it very embarrassing when a woman wears a low cut top. It's because I am very drawn to a nice looking cleavage. I just have to keep looking, and it can become very embarrassing when I am caught looking several times! But I just can't help it. My son brought his girlfriend round, and she...

>>>Men need to hold men accountable?<<< Isn't that a bit like mansplaining, in other words, like saying the women aren't able to sort these creeps out themselves? I must say I, on one occasion quite innocently did something in the workplace, which a woman took offense to, and she really put me...

I have also purchased Dr Jordan B Peterson's book, The 12 rules. It's very good, though I sense someone with a real feel for the subject could find some inconsistencies which sort of hover around the periphery of my thoughts while I'm reading it, but I just could not pin them down if you ask me...

Yes I know what you mean about Sam Harris. He does come over a bit more grounded than Jordan b Peterson. I watch the video at 2X for the most part, cuts down the viewing time!

No, I watched it all! I too found the second installment, but haven't gotten around to watching that yet will watch it tomorrow.

No I haven't seen anything from Sam Harris before, I thought the two of them sparred very well. I hope they do more of it, because I think they are genuinely trying to thrash out the truth!

Absolutely brilliant thank you for that Jon.

I thought it was a fantastic film the first time I watched it, and then I spoke to people about it, and they told me it was a bad film, I was puzzled until I watched it again! I will say I thought John Travolta was very good in it. I brought the book because of the film, that was very good.

I have been using speech transcription software to convert my speech into text, must be getting on for 15 years! Speech transcription software generates its own unique brand of typos! It is initially very difficult to spot this new breed. I was also very amused when I discovered that speech...
