the girl with the mousey hair friday. or. astronamy, sci fi an googlin 72.
seriously looks like a woman to me, aint idle fantasy great?? please ignore that this comes from the evil mail! also, i thought to myself-hmm post 72 is it-i do wonder what will happen if i google '72' and this is what i found in images on the first page-

this is a picture of the remnant of a star that exploded in a nearby galaxy known as the Small Magellanic Cloud, or, E0102-72! okay so, this galaxy is approximately 190'000 light years from the earth. so we are seeing it as it was, 190'000 years ago because thats how long the light takes to get to us right. so it doesnt look like that right now, oh no, we are seeing back in time effectively. its madness! THIS is the full article here.
what else...... been listenin to lots of good tunes via we7. is good, listen to full albums with a few short adverts-ACE!! we love THE CURE ;)
i read the forever war by joe haldeman, leant to me by my wonderfull mrs

was cool and groovy, proper gettin back into the science fiction! though this novel is mostly about the warside of things and the whole futility, none sensical, brutal, pointlesslness of it all. sorta like catch 22 but based on the cold war and yaknow-sci fi! very well written and great charectorisation, plus a brilliant ending. very good. now reading 'the lovely bones' very different. then 'the historian' by elizabeth costova.
that was fun.
brought to you by the limitlessness of the cosmos,
sci fi goodness,
we7 musical goodness,
finely finding out how to do enclosure links-didja notice?

second sunday blog blaster! its on kringer or, what the hell is kring?

kringer on the left.
or maybe its a company-
-looks like there changin there name joseph, nab the name before some fool robs it from your mits! but what else could a kring or 'kringer' be i hear you holler, perhaps it comes from 'tim kring' the charming chappy behind heroes. 'thats the one' i hear joseph screech, but i feel more investigation is quite nescassery, i mean-what if this is a raspberry to throw us of the trail. maybe a kring is a rare sub-species of vole. or maybe its the technically correct desciption for a circle of wooden hard backed chairs-

or michael kring, the little known but quite fantastically mad sci-fi author. i've rumbled you haven't i meester armstrong? come on admit? i won't exploit you i promise

well well well i think the kringing has been kringed as far as it'll kring, for you and me both. if i have to type kring one more time i may just not be able to take it!
thanks for laying down the gorntlet there dude, ha ha ha i enjoyed it immensley! who won?!
