  1. Camping Saga 4

    Well my friend and I did go camping the pictures are here We didn't do to badly, with 10 miles on the first day and 15 on the second, the plan was to spend three days and do around 35 miles, but it didn't quite happen. On the first day we were busy following a "path" it was on the ordinance survey map but lead us nicely to a fast river and a deer fence. After climbing down a small cliff to get round the fence, passing the bags down in turns, we found that the path didn't exist in the ...

  2. Camping saga 3

    I've only just got on-line again and I'll be off in two days!

    Finally the snow has melted (ish) and my friend and I are about to go hiking, there's only two of us going and we can only go for three days as she is working after that, and her boyfriend is jealous enough as it is! (No she's not like that) We're planning on heading up past Tomintoul and then doing a loop up the River Avon across the hills and back down another river.


    So I hope to have some photos ...

  3. LOL!

    Ah, my obsession with ancestral research has now passed like an incurable virus into my wife! Now she insists that I help her on her family tree and I've dived into this project headfirst.Unfortunately, she doesn't exactly have the leeway I did with relatives who could afford to go in depth in our genealogy, so I've got less material.The important thing is, I've got some material to work with and that should lead to a little more.
    I've been able to confirm her Scottish, Southwestern ...

  4. On Noble Asceticism

    by , 03-24-2009 at 02:18 PM (Diary of a Madman: Aphorisms, Maxims and Allegories)
    On my first day of Gerechtigkeit Penance, I learned how lazy I was, and how I had released myself to all things "easy."

    On my second day of Gerechtigkeit Penance, I learned of that which is possible, for myself.


    On my third day of Gerechtigkeit Penance, I learned I was capable.


    On my third day of Gerechtigkeit Penance, I knew something greater than what I desired.


    On my fourth day of Gerechtigkeit Penance,
    ...

  5. On Random Significance...

    by , 03-21-2009 at 09:31 PM (Diary of a Madman: Aphorisms, Maxims and Allegories)
    ...To what, to whom, do I owe my capacity for suffering? To what, and to whom, do any of us - the Order of the 'Other'? For that is what, indeed, we are: 'we' fit no mould; 'we' understand no Absolute; and - what is more - 'we' find a vainglorious ring to the sound of the trumpets of "modernity"... what have we to do with the modern? - as recognisers of the Retrogression of the type 'Man'?

    We owe no umbrage, nor do we owe a genuflection to what is occurring during the times

  6. Andy's Rant

    Okay.I go to school with these people and most of my classes are made up primarily of them.They are nice to my face and say disparaging things about my people in Spanish.When I have to work with them, they make no bones about wasting my time when I've got other deliveries to make.There are far too many of them here and they're changing the demographic of the United States.Because of them, I am now a member of a minority in the same town I grew up in.Many come here illegally.I rented a room from ...

  8. Yet Another Alteration!

    I'm trying to condense my ancestry from smaller countries such as England,Scotland and Northern Ireland to larger political designations such as British..at least, as Wikipedia would define it..www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Americans
    Remembering my French Creole ancestry as well, I can just refer to www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louisiana_French
    As research has shown, I've elements of German and German Swiss via both the British and French Creole minglings in my family.I ...

  9. The Price of Our Instrument

    by , 02-24-2009 at 12:11 PM (Diary of a Madman: Aphorisms, Maxims and Allegories)
    We suffer, and openly engage in the suffering, of potentialities. We further find that to do so evokes an awareness of that which is necrotic in our willed , and willing essence; which is to say, that which subsumes the ignoble characteristcs that our respective Lines have infused. Whilst the 'operation' is a delicate proceedure, to be sure, we find ourselves with very little concern of that which is delicate. Almost as if the best within us, being the best, commands, "Tear it out! - so what ...

  10. Adoption and Second Tale

    Adoption.My wife has her heart set on it and my heart is set on us having our own kids.We had a minor altercation about this.It's not that I don't want to adopt, which I don't, but I do want to raise those of my own blood.I simply can't let it end with Kiersten.I just can't.
    I told the stories that were told to me of my father's mother, Elna Thorne-Gooding.
    There wasn't really a lot to tell.She was of Scotch-Irish descent, she didn't know who her father was, she never really said ...
