Sam's Town: Three is a Magic Number
http://samlenton.blogspot.com/2012/11/three-is-magic-number.html
This is the world that we live in. Friday, 9 November 2012. Three is a Magic Number. We’ve known for some time that 3 is a magic number. Three wise men. Three lions on my shirt. Three books in the 50 shades of grey series. The number speaks for itself. Who’d have tho-o-ought it? They were some scenes. Let’s be clear about one thing here: this was not a sporting event or even a rock concert. This was an. Nevertheless, out we go into the streets on results day and begin our chanting:. 8216; U.S.A.

Sam's Town: March 2012
http://samlenton.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
This is the world that we live in. Wednesday, 21 March 2012. The Pop Singer’s Fear of the Pollen Count. It’s not a great question. It’s not even a mildly average one. Yet, every year it seems to rear its ugly head once more and we are left trembling in its wake at our inability to provide an answer sugar-coated in certainty. Be able to control, it’s also the most pathetic fight in the history of mankind…. If that’s not an argument against evolution, I don’t know what is…. Links to this post. If I can be ...

This is the world that we live in. Friday, 28 September 2012. These Arms of Mine. Two weeks ago I lost the use of one of my arms. However, one thing is clear: living with only one arm is not that easy. In fact, I think it goes to show that God certainly knew what he was doing when he gave us two. Whether it’s hugging a loved one or squeezing the toothpaste on to the brush, two hands don’t half make the job easier. Here are five things that two arms undoubtedly do better than one:. For now, I leave you wi...

Sam's Town: August 2012
http://samlenton.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
This is the world that we live in. Monday, 27 August 2012. Work for the Working Man. Unbelievably, I am being expected to go to work tomorrow. You might as well go right ahead and wipe that ‘A Day in the Life’. Post from your memory banks (assuming you haven’t done so already) because it ain’t happening again for a long time…. Well, not until Friday at least. The ‘Thank God It’s…’ day? More productive than I have been over the course of this summer but one thing remains consistent: the day will be mine.

Sam's Town: April 2012
http://samlenton.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
This is the world that we live in. Sunday, 22 April 2012. I know we’re supposed to embrace all fashions and trends, celebrating the. That exists in our culture, but I am afraid I am going to well and truly nail my colours to the mast and express my utter dislike for one of the latest trends to be sweeping the nation: obscenely-patterned leggings. I don’t remember the Aztecs wearing any leggings like this when studying Ancient History at school…. Destroying a trend by joining the trend – now. Walls that h...

Sam's Town: May 2012
http://samlenton.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
This is the world that we live in. Thursday, 31 May 2012. Accidental Crime - 1. It had been an unusually busy morning. Woken at 5 by a neighbour’s insistence on publicising their departure for work, Dawn had found herself in an irritable mood and such a discovery could never be met with even a degree of appreciation. She shuffled towards the breakfast table, eyeing-up the ‘to-do’ list she had composed under the new-found semblance of organisation she was keen to bring to her life. 7 am – wake up. She gla...

Sam's Town: Let’s start the new year right
http://samlenton.blogspot.com/2013/01/lets-start-new-year-right.html
This is the world that we live in. Wednesday, 2 January 2013. Let’s start the new year right. Something tells me it’s not going to be quite as good a year for flags as 2012. I’m afraid I can’t see it. Stifle the yawn if you can and remember that fridge magnets, t-shirts, posters and who knows what else are providing the solution to our national stupor: When all the light seems to have gone,. Keep Calm and Carry On. Italics, capitals and the opening phrase are mine – lawyers on standby). A new Sam Lenton ...

This is the world that we live in. Saturday, 24 September 2011. Sign o’ the times. Just a brief blog today with a brief idea…. Finally, I know what the world needs: Voice-activated LED panels on the back of cars. I’d appreciate your patience in this matter and apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused to your day.’ Problem solved. Or we could share poetry with each other or even Bible verses. It could be the greatest innovation in evangelism since…well, the last one. Links to this post. And then ...
