I’m sorry - dropping by 24% to grow by 56% 24 hours later is nothing but gambling.



Couldn’t happen to nicer people.

Bit by bit we are being divided and ‘taken out’ …

United we stand … divided we fall!

Just Finished Reading: Taste: My Life Through Food by Stanley Tucci 📚

I don’t write many book reviews but for this one I will make an exception - with a good reason - but not yet.

I will be back. (If you will pardon a spot of ‘Arny Channeling’ !!!)

Rebuilding My Micro Blog 🚧

By simply adding stuff / pages and plugins to my blog without thinking something eventually had to break - and it did. My thanks to @manton and @pimoore for pointing out the error. Turns out Hitchens doesn’t include a ‘Replies’ page - which caused my archive to disappear.

Flat Earth time. I mean - everything. (Barring two hidden pages being used for 🖇️ 🔎The Readers Republic ).

I really like PowerPhotos, a Mac App that lets you run multiple iPhoto libraries and move images between them.

iPhotos can then access any one of these files that are based on topics. My main library is then uncluttered.

Does anyone know of something similar in the iOS world?
