news to me

Apparently one internet user in ten has a blog now. Are you one? Or do you enjoy your surfing time by reading others' writings? Why not leave me a comment to say you have been? I see from the map on the sidebar that I have quite a few more visitors than make their voices known. So even a little peep would be a pleasure to hear. :)

Click on the comments link (at the end of this post on the right) and let me know you're here. You don't have to be a Blogger member. When you get to the comments page, click on "Other" if you'd like to leave me your name, or "Anonymous" if you'd prefer not to. Let me ask some questions to get you started. (Thanks to Sonya for the idea.) Please choose one or more to answer.

1. What's a good film (or TV show) you've seen recently?

2. What's your favourite fruit and why? If you could describe yourself as a fruit which one would it be? :)

3. What are you reading at the moment?

4. Do you think that a messy desk/room means a tidy mind? Or would you prefer to leave me an anti-clutter tip?

I've just finished reading a fine biography of C S Lewis, by Alan Jacobs. Did you know that Lewis didn't type or drive a car, and barely travelled outside the UK? But in the last half of his life he wrote a book a year, in genres as varied as apologetics and fiction. At Lewis's funeral, Austin Farrar said, 'His real power was not proof; it was depiction. There lived in his writings a Christian universe that could be both thought and felt, in which he was at home and in which he has made his reader at home.'

Hi Sare! I believe it - that so many people have a blog. I wish google did not include them in the search though.
And why is it that people have blogs but dont post. I think I will have to make some random blog friends by posting on theirs to get them to post on mine..

Okay... my hands are still cold... but I did forget to answer the qustions.

2. I love pineapple but I do not think I am one... maybe I am more of an orange so round and fat I am.
3.The SCLS Providers Guide (not recommended)
4.no nothing should ever be messy.

1. Spooks is super addictive
2. Grapes, because they are so tasty especially in drink form :) Speaking of drink I love orange and raspberry juice too.
3. The Mathematics of Finacial Derivatives by Wilmott. Highly recomended so far. It excludes the technical points and puts them at the end of the chapter, that way you don't get bogged down in the details.
4. I have always tried to keep my desk tidy, and it does feel nice when you have one of those days where you blitz it. However, I am the type of person who just has piles of everything everywhere. I know where stuff is (as long as you do not move it or it is not keys wallet, phone, handsfree, umbrella...), which considering the mess is quite a feet... so I think that I do have a tidy mind

PS: A tidy mind facilitates the ability to have a messy desk, without the tidy mind the desk would have to be tidy

Did Matt warn you that he put your blog as a link from his blog - i suppose because you had a good pic of him eating corn on the cob. In answer to your questions,I think your desk looks quite organized. I am reading a book about prayer by Philip Yancey and A Short History of Nearly Everything. - signed "Matt's Mom"
