Adventures in engineering: March 2006

Friday, March 31, 2006. Home of the brave? It may be the land of the free, but it certainly isn't free to enter. Perhaps because of its perceived desirability to immigrants, who think the country will provide a better standard of living than anywhere else, the entry requirements to the USA are (dare I say it? Ludicrously onerous. I've heard stories of people being deported as soon as they arrived in the States because of previously overstaying their visa. Of course there was the story about. I bought my ...

Adventures in engineering: November 2005
http://tamburlaine-the-great.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 22, 2005. Anton Bruckner Choir concert. Recently, it would be fascinating to be able to go back in time just to see how different London was before the Great Fire. The concert began with three unaccompanied motets by Bruckner:. These were beautifully and sensitively sung, particularly. Which because of its brevity and relative simplicity, can sometimes sound routine, the singers knowing it almost by heart. Certain moments in. The main work, Brahms'. Posted by Tamburlaine @ 6:20 pm.

I think I might be beautiful: April 2006
http://beautifulmarrow.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
I think I might be beautiful. Wednesday, April 26, 2006. My dear old grandma, the most beautiful woman in her village, used to have a rocking chair. She'd sit me on her knee, try to keep her lips from mine, and rock me to sleep. As my beauty developed my fortunes, I hankered after a chair of my own, just like my grandma's. And one day, I bought one. I called it my rock-hard abs chair. But I was still SAD, y'know? But there was a problem. Such a problem. So it was with the chair. If ever I got up, som...

I think I might be beautiful. Wednesday, March 29, 2006. A little something to eat. A few days back, a friend cooked me dinner. It wasn't the best, so I politely suggested that in future, when we met, we should eat elsewhere. He was a bit upset at first, but when it became clear that I wouldn't see him - or rather, he wouldn't get to see me - unless things changed, he agreed. So, on Monday, we decided to eat out. Let's broaden our horizons, I said. Go crazy! What have you got to lose? It did. And tha...

Adventures in engineering: August 2006

Thursday, August 24, 2006. And include all sorts of landmarks, streets and onshore stuff; whereas Admiralty Charts pooh-pooh the land (except where there might be a couple of tall chimneys) as being fit only for land-lubbers, and lovingly detail every change in the sea bed, showing where lights, wrecks and pipelines run. But geological maps are the best, because they're. So here's Tamburlaine's guide for interpreting geological maps:. Igneous rocks - usually bright reds, pinks and lime green colours;.

Adventures in engineering: January 2006

Monday, January 30, 2006. Blenheim: the battle for Europe - Charles Spencer. Indiscretion - Jude Morgan. My Lord John - Georgette Heyer. If you don't like unfinished works, this is not the book for you, as the recent re-issue stops midway through a sentence. If you can cope with that, however, read it in conjunction with Anya Seton's. Set at a slightly earlier time, for a contrasting viewpoint of this period. Posted by Tamburlaine @ 5:29 pm. Wednesday, January 11, 2006. The world's favourite airline?

I think I might be beautiful: The return of beauty, part 2
http://beautifulmarrow.blogspot.com/2006/05/return-of-beauty-part-2.html
I think I might be beautiful. Friday, May 12, 2006. The return of beauty, part 2. And so the story of my amnesiac walkabout continues. I was standing quite, quite still, when an upsetting creature approached. I maintained my wondrous immobility but she was not deterred. Beauty,' she murmured. 'Mercy heaven yum it's beauty.' And then she tried to kiss me. A pain rent my head. Memories flooded forward. Deep within in me, identity stirred. A moment later, so did she. Catharsis. Release. Joy. Cheers, enjoyin...
