About Me

No Fixed Abode, Home Counties, United Kingdom
I’m a 60-year-old Aspergic gardening CAD-Monkey. Sardonic, cynical and with the political leanings of a social reformer, I’m also a toy and model figure collector, particularly interested in the history of plastics and plastic toys. Other interests are history, current affairs, modern art, and architecture, gardening and natural history. I love plain chocolate, fireworks and trees, but I don’t hug them, I do hug kittens. I hate ignorance, when it can be avoided, so I hate the 'educational' establishment and pity the millions they’ve failed with teaching-to-test and rote 'learning' and I hate the short-sighted stupidity of the entire ruling/industrial elite, with their planet destroying fascism and added “buy-one-get-one-free”. Likewise, I also have no time for fools and little time for the false crap we're all supposed to pretend we haven't noticed, or the games we're supposed to play. I will 'bite the hand that feeds', to remind it why it feeds.

A is for Apparently . . . .

 . . . it's national thesaurus day, somewhere!

 

"I successfully predict that upon which you cogitate; did I empty the ammunition storage chambers, or only partially expend their contents? And - should you wish to be appraised of the facts - in all the preceding, heated kerfuffle, I appear to have purely failed to register that data? Therefore, the quandary with which you have to present yourself, is thusly - Do you feel blessed with good fortune, juvenile delinquent? Verily, comment upon that?"

"The pinnacle of the planetary sphere, mother, the pinnacle of the planetary sphere!"

 "The advancing object is in no way a Luna body!" . . . "It's a moment of captive deceit!"

"It's a form of existence, Jim, but in a manner we would not comprehend it as, in the normal course of events."  

"May the measure of nonequilibrium accompany you, adolescent Skywalker!"

Just saying, the 'juvenile delinquent' was in his 30's.

Well, you're just being picky!
