When I was one,
I had just begun.
When I was two,
I was nearly new.

The British have always loved an underdog. Since more often than not this has been a description of our island nation itself, it is a sentiment that runs deep in many. So it was no surprise that the big old BBC is currently coming under heavy fire for picking on the runt of its radio […]
It might seem a touch peculiar to be able to find similarities between two apparently disparate stories, but what can I say – that’s the way my brain rolls.
One of the two stories in question over that past fortnight has been the call to reveal the identity of one of the killers of James Bulger; […]
Sometimes we’re given a sharp reminder that trying to predict the future is a dangerous business.
Currently doing the rounds is a link to an article by Clifford Stoll from a 1995 issue of Newsweek. In it, Stoll gripes about the hype surrounding an invention that he felt was “oversold”. That invention? The internet.
