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…

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…

Random Bloggage Chooser
Over the years I have been blogging I have generated an awful lot of text. (Or should that be a lot of awful text?) Anyway, in lieu of today’s bloggage being a fresh one I have a challenge for you, but it will mean that you have to (b)log on to my blog on WordPress…

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…

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…

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…

migration
I am in the process of transferring my life from a slow computer to a whizzy one. I would like to think that it would be relatively simple and painless. Of course anyone familiar with computers will know that ‘simple’ and ‘painless’ are not words usually associated with them. I may have resembled this man…

recapturing an attitude of gratitude
We live in a world that is moving at breakneck speed. I don’t just mean the speed with which we are hurtling in our orbit around the sun, or the speed at which our planet is spinning. The pace of life itself seems to be accelerating, enabled by advances in technology, innovations in organisational techniques,…
