Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Motorcycling: 30 of 42
Nestled in swathe of green, rolling hills, lies Temple, a small village like a thousand others peppering the Emerald Isle. It's quiet where I stand, about halfway down a large, steeply angled ribbon of tarmac cutting its way across the countryside. In a field, behind a waist high barbed wire fence, the three strips of wire w... More..
Health & Fitness > Weight Issues Obesity a growing problem: 28 of 37
A report out of Australia recently has some very disturbing results. In it, there lies a claim that 70% of men and 50% of women are now classed as obese. Put another way, that's 60% of ALL people are obese a clear majority. It has reached such proportions that specially constructed toilet seats are now being imported into Au... More..
Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Heroes: 27 of 31
The headline in today's Daily Telegraph reads OUR ASHES HEROES'. Apparently the Australian cricket team have regained the Ashes, a minute trophy held in high esteem by those who crave it. Faan-tastic that cricket rates right up there with watching paint dry is neither here nor there. Fact is, I would really like to know exac... More..
Politics, News & Issues > War in Iraq Analyzing Bush's decision to enter Iraq: 57 of 62
On September 11th 2001, the United States was the victim of a series of coordinated attacks which resulted in the deaths of approximately 5000 persons. This atrocity while heinous, really shouldn't have come as a surprise given America's interference in foreign nations' affairs. It was inevitable that an aggrieved nation wou... More..
Politics, News & Issues > War in Iraq The "answer" for Iraq: 78 of 84
If only it were that simple; conflict in the middle east has been a building block of the nation from the beginning of it's existence (which, to use a common expression, was eons before the US was a twinkle in its daddy's eye'). And the Coalition forces are taking the brunt of its anger. This was recently chillingly demonstr... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Climate Change Assessing our responsibility to preserve the environment: 29 of 31
I recently argued with a friend of mine on this subject (are we responsible for repairing the damage?) It grew quite heated as she couldn't seem to understand my apparent reluctance to embrace her way of thinking on this matter. Her opinion being one of concurrence with the opinions in Al Gore's "An inconvenient truth", whic... More..
Arts & Humanities > English Language The decline and corruption of the English language: 15 of 16
I love the English language and while I can't claim to be a bona fide professor, I do like to consider myself a scholar of it and I DO stand fast as its champion. But I fear that it's under attack from the slow-witted and the dullards of society who are just too lazy to put the effort into learning this most eloquent and art... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Terrorism Winning the war against terrorism: 61 of 62
I wrote in a previous article that there was no easy answer to the Iraq issue. In fact, at the time I couldn't see an answer at all (apparently if the current situation's anything to go by, nor could anyone else). So I put my thinking cap on. Because the situation cannot continue as it is a solution must be found. And after ... More..
Style & Beauty > Body Image The shame of the modern male image: 3 of 3
God Almighty - what has happened to men? In a Sunday magazine someone called Kathy Buchanan has somewhat crowingly written a piece entitled 'Have you noticed...men are looking better than ever'? If that means men are looking more like women then she's hit the nail right on the head. Turns out, according to Ms Buchanan, that ... More..
