A Nervous Girl's Guide to Life. A Nervous Girl’s Guide to… Vegetarianism (And Why It’s So Difficult). October 10, 2016. October 23, 2016. I love the taste of meat, and I do associate it with cosy family dinners, and Christmas time. It’s very easy to focus on the good memories surrounding meat-eating and to enjoy it. But after four years since my last bout of vegetarianism, I have once again gone back to a meat-less diet, which has now been in operation since January. The majority of people eat meat, so i...

Hey, Where’d That Island Go? – Plying Through Life
https://daveplyadventures.wordpress.com/2016/11/08/hey-whered-that-island-go
Travel Stories and Other Adventures. South Pacific Region Photos. Hey, Where’d That Island Go? November 8, 2016. November 8, 2016. You ever have one of those times when you can’t stop smiling? But mostly it was because we were in one of the unique places in the world, Lake Titicaca, visiting the Uros Islanders. So what’s the big deal? The world is full of islands, and many have distinct populations. But while the Uru people are unique, it’s the islands themselves that set the place apart. The Uros predat...

I Suppose I Should Write Something… – Plying Through Life
https://daveplyadventures.wordpress.com/2017/01/09/i-suppose-i-should-write-something
Travel Stories and Other Adventures. South Pacific Region Photos. I Suppose I Should Write Something…. January 9, 2017. January 10, 2017. Regular readers of this blog may have noticed I haven’t posted anything for the last month or so, veering away from my reliable once a week schedule. Perhaps they’ve even wondered why, or what could be up next in the queue. Where you been, boy? There are a few reasons for my absence, but nothing dreadful. But just reading and watching is easier. I gave myself a new toy...

A Tail of Woe – Plying Through Life
https://daveplyadventures.wordpress.com/2016/10/20/a-tail-of-woe
Travel Stories and Other Adventures. South Pacific Region Photos. A Tail of Woe. October 20, 2016. I apologize in advance for this story of woe. I will however, talk about a side effect that none of you can deny dealing with – the common fart. They ate local food that hadn’t been properly prepared, stood upwind in battle, hoisted their rears and fired off volleys. Why do you think they had to wear armor? You may wonder about the photo of the tortured water bottle leading off this post. That was the r...

Fall is Fell – Plying Through Life
https://daveplyadventures.wordpress.com/2016/11/21/fall-is-fell
Travel Stories and Other Adventures. South Pacific Region Photos. November 21, 2016. January 20, 2017. The gloom of the nearly denuded trees and the cement gray skies outside puts me in mind of this old bit of doggerel, but begs the question: is Fall Fell because the leaves all fell from the trees, or is it Fell in the more ominous context – i.e. one fell swoop? But the leaves and their color do fall, swooping to and fro on their way to earth, leaving an empty, melancholy mood in their absence. Meanwhile...

Freelance Writer and Journalist. An American in Sussex. Spike Milligan and me. Categories: An American in Sussex. My friend then dragged me backstage so he could say hello to one of the crew. There I spotted Spike, all alone, plucking out ‘The Girl from Ipanema’ on a guitar. Naturally, I started to sing it. ‘Oh, you like jazz,’ he said, suddenly noticing me. ‘Maybe we could go out some time.’. It was to be from that point onward. I don’t think he ever called me by my first name, Marilynn. Very you…...

I Hope You Don't Find My Lack of Tagline Disturbing. Movies, TV Shows and Anti-Me. February 7, 2016. August 19, 2016. Yesterday. I liked it. But it was long. Way too long. With a 2 hour 36 minute length, I think it was at least 30 minutes overdue. That being said, it was a beautifully shot film with great performances from especially Leo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy. As usual. Oh, it was also very intense at times with painful violence. Yay! Because I’m a nerd, I just recently googled the entire cast of. We ju...

A lone comedy writer reaches for the stars … as well as another beer. The Colane Conundrum: A Literary Sitcom. Fifty Shades of Sweat Socks. October 30, 2015. Catcher in the Rye’ has no point. At least that’s according to my 18-year-old self, if a recently unearthed high-school assignment is to be believed. I took an Advanced Composition course in my senior year, and one of the assignments was to pick a novel and keep a journal as we read. Because I was into baseball at the time, I selected. It’s a hard t...

No….not me! 8230;it’s the pigs! And not the flying ones in uniform either.) This time of year, all over Spain, in practically every bar that serves food, you will see hanging pigs legs. I used to have nightmares about legless pigs roaming. Has began and soon enough all that dark meat will be eaten and bars will return to normal. Into b...
