Keeping my promise | The Swiss Job
https://theswissjob.wordpress.com/2008/02/21/keeping-my-promise
An Irishman lost in Switzerland! February 21, 2008. Is there anyone still out there? It’s been a while but I made a promise to myself and thankfully I’ve kept it. We came back from our four week Australian/Tasmanian extravaganza at the end of January and I decided not to post again until I put the photos from the holidays online.

Pandora's Concrete Box: March 2011
http://pandorasconcretebox.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
A trip around the universe - as seen from my living room. Wednesday 30 March 2011. I solemnly swear that I am up to no good (or at least I was)! As a parent I'm torn about how I should feel about this. On one hand I should be delighted that my daughter is promising things like this and that the school are pressing such issues. On the other hand it's complete bulls*#t, it means nothing, it's not a real promise. To the kids it's just writing your name on a piece of paper because you were told to. I became ...

Charity My Bollocks | Journeymans
https://bignosedotorg.wordpress.com/2012/07/24/charity-my-bollocks
The liar's domain – words. July 24, 2012. That old aphorism; “Charity begins at home”, seemed an almost constant refrain in our house. As a young fella, I had absolutely no clue what it meant. It seemed to me then that there was no need for charity at home because we had a dinner on the table every day so hoping for charity was plain stupid. These days I live in the full glare of hindsight. I look only at the streets of my own town. Charities that depend on administrators no longer receive my one cent.

Thieves & Scam Artists | Journeymans
https://bignosedotorg.wordpress.com/2012/07/23/thieves-scam-artists
The liar's domain – words. Thieves and Scam Artists. Thieves and Scam Artists. July 23, 2012. SCAMS, SCAMS and MORE SCAMS! In these days of recession and depression and, for many; dire need, the mind altering scam artists will pop up. I found one this morning when I clicked on an advert that sat right on top of the dictionary.com page. It’s a page I visit from time to time. I looked and I was tempted. More than four thousand a week! It is money for nothing. I accept money for nothing. For just a moment).

Apple’s Little iScam | Journeymans
https://bignosedotorg.wordpress.com/2012/06/28/apples-little-iscam
The liar's domain – words. Apple’s Little iScam. Apple’s Little iScam. June 28, 2012. Following several expensive and pointless ‘repairs’ over several months I had given up on my local CompuB. Technical support team ever getting to grips with a kernel panic. I concluded that CompuB’s techies in Ireland were less than adequate and that maybe those at an Apple shop would have the necessary expertise. I was not dissuaded from that viewpoint during a telephone conversation with one of Apple’s own. In my expe...

Thoughts and Ramblings of a Disabled Vet. Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. About me and Just Thinkin’. Newer posts →. Taking a break from the conversation. February 13, 2015. February 13, 2015. My body and mind were, for once, blissfully relaxed so I decided to do my utmost to remain that way throughout the day and this meant staying out of any online social-type conversations. And it wasn’t so difficult to do. So instead I think I’ll use this opportunity to wish a good friend of...

The un-Joycean, incoherent ramblings of. well, an un-Jocyean, incoherent man. Friday 30 January 2009. The Friday Album Cover #30. How did this reach 30 so quickly! Labels: The Friday Album Cover. Wednesday 28 January 2009. You put your left hand in. T-man just pointed me in the direction of this. As he said himself, "Crikes! Anything you want - you got it! While sitting in her kitchen last week I noticed the new, futuristic looking washer/drier gleaming proudly under her counter top. Where did you get it?

The un-Joycean, incoherent ramblings of. well, an un-Jocyean, incoherent man. Thursday 2 April 2009. It was lovely to hear from you again - and many thanks for your kind letter and the enclosed photograph. Amina, we have been writing to each other on and off for over a year now. During that time you described the poverty and daily hardships facing you - and other African children. You also explained how World Vision Ireland. What finally gave the game away? Well, I'll tell you - your teeth! Amina I live ...
