meme-fishing
I find it interesting that some combinations of words simply float past our eyes and vanish again, while others resonate with us so much that we want to remember them, share them, retweet them or otherwise let other people know how profound we found them. The internet is awash with many things but seems to…

newsflash
Dear Bloggists Tomorrow I am having some minor (keyhole) surgery on my shoulder, which may mean that my blogging is curtailed for a little while during the period my shoulder is incapacitated and typing is a bit difficult. I am sorry to say that normal service will be resumed as soon as possible. You have…

just so you know
I am going to be away for a week receiving training in transforming conflict – mediation and conciliation. This means that I won’t necessarily be lobbing bloggages in your direction this week. I have scheduled a couple that I have prepared earlier just in case you feel too bereft of my bloggerel and pray you’ll…

For anyone who’s interested, here is a review of my blog in 2014
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2014 annual report for this blog. Here’s an excerpt: The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 17,000 times in 2014. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 6 sold-out performances for that many…

kiloblog
So here we are, my bloggish peeps as I journal my thoughts like an online Pepys: I have managed to write a kiloblog* of entries. It’s been a slog that has taken me since February 2010 when I began revelatory ramblings based on the contents of my brain and events that happen to occur…

No, you aren’t experiencing some sort of strange cyber double vision. The image in this bloggage* is the category cloud from the blog. I try to tag most of my bloggages. Apparently it makes it easier for people to find me. But it also reveals, through this clever cloud thingy, the emphases in my reflections.…

count me in
It seems that this is my 900th bloggage. That’s 900 separate posts – probably the best part of 500,000 words with 526 different subject categories and 814 tags spread over just 10 pages. Amazingly I have only used 10% of my space allocation on WordPress. There have been 319 approved comments and I have been…

statistically speaking again
I have noticed a trend with the visits you are making to my blog. When someone else advertises a bloggage lots more of you visit than on the other occasions. That’s what the chart above reveals. The significant peaks in views and visits coincide with the occasions when one of my bloggages was featured on…

bloggage forecast
For the first three days of this week I will be attending the Eastern Baptist Association’s Ministers’ Conference. I always find it a blessing when I attend these conferences – sometimes as much for the conversations between sessions as for the sessions themselves. This time we have some people I am very much looking forward to hearing…

let them eat cake
I noticed that yesterday’s bloggage was number 750. Wow, doesn’t bloggerel fly when you’re having fun? I suspect that this landmark deserves celebrating so please feel free to go and buy yourself a cake in honour of the 750th bloggage. Assuming an average bloggage contains 500 words, that means that I have released 375,000 words…
