Rhetoric is the discussion on any and all topics, mostly opinion and ranting, but possibly something even of interest and value.
A long hot summer, with it being too hot to work outside, has left me with too much time back in front of the screen – armed with my new buddy Claude. Having a capable ‘developer’ beside me has completely changed the game. No longer am I spending hours Googling (or Kagi‘ing as it is […]

Read MoreIn my last post about my time in ICU and near-death experience as a result of Flu > Pneumonia > ARDS, I made some mention at the end of the article about the delirium caused by the cocktail of drugs that the anaesthetist(s) used to keep me sedated during my 19 days of unconsciousness. This post […]
Read MoreThis post hasn’t been written for you the reader, but for me the author. I’m writing this to remember, as I have been told that “in 3 to 6 months it will all feel like a dream…”. **WARNING: Some readers may find some of the content/photos disturbing.** Here’s the TL;DR: This August (2014) and September […]

Read MoreIn the tradition of the last two years (see Top-Ten 2009, Top-Ten 2010), i’m attempting to round up my top-10 favorite images that were published during the year. This year was dominated by travel photos from Belgium and France, and then New Zealand.
Read MoreFollowing on from last year’s review, I thought I’d end 2010 with a look back at my top-10 favorite images that were published during the year. This year was a less-productive one in terms of the number of photos published (111 to be precise, compared to the 213 in 2008), but interestingly all of the […]
