This was breakfast this morning. A little unorthodox, but with a nice salad, plenty of lemon juice and a commercially bottled Mango Chilli dressing from Woolworths, it was actually quite tasty. I was a little disappointed with the Scampi, because only about 25% of the entire body length is actually edible. I did wrap it…
I watched a documentary recently, and one thing I learnt was that almost every species on PLANET EARTH engages in homosexual activity. However, we humans are the only one’s who have made homophobia a contentious and frequent topic of discussion. You gotta love the Discovery Channel. We would also have to be the dumbest species…
I sent a probe into my brain last Thursday, and the surge of brilliance encouraged me to get a flight to Auckland to visit my sister and brother. My appetite for self sabotage wasn’t balanced at all, and I needed to seek some refuge to get myself into calmer waters. The picture I took over…
What an awesome sight, while taking out friends on the boat over the weekend, around 12 to 15 dolphins swam into the bay. A few even came close to the boat, and almost everyone were in awe at this graceful setting on a beautiful Sunday morning. I’ve never seen dolphins in Sydney, let alone a…

I have been living under the threat of death for the past 3 years, and last year was probably my most challenging. There are days now where I cruise through the aisles at Woolworth’s and suddenly feel a panic attack, where I start to palpitate and sweat. I’ve learnt to stop, focus on any item…
Turning 50 has attracted a lot of pats on my back followed up with ‘it’s all downhill from here’ jibes. In fact, going downhill sounds fun, fast and requires a lot less effort than the journey getting to the top in the first place. Going uphill requires effort, strength and endurance, none of the qualities…
Just recently I was thrown a piece of verbal wisdom, being told to live each day as it comes. I sort of recall being offered another gem, saying to live each day as if it were my last. You ought to see my very very old cat, the poor thing is mostly blind, mostly deaf,…
