Sitting here in the swimming pool, I’m 40 minutes early, but that’s just the way it worked out. No matter, I’ve got my iPhone and a working earphone. A working earphone, Tommy? I hear you wonder. I thought they only came in pairs! So did I, but when I found out I’d be waiting at [...]
I want to care. I don’t mind what it is, golf, GAA, hurling, football, heck, I’ll take horseback water polo if it gets me passionate. What? there isn’t a horseback water polo? Well then there’s your problem! How am I meant to love a sport that you haven’t had the good grace to invent yet? [...]
I kind of, erm, slept in this morning, thinking that John would come into my room and wake me before he went. I got no such wake up call, instead waking at 12:01 and immediately thinking Craaaaaaaaaap So now I’m slowly trying to adjust to the thought process/mind set of being an only child. This [...]

Random urge to review this iPhone app. Perhaps this will become a regular occurrence, perhaps not. Who knows, at least my last entry on apps was well received. We’ll see, son. Card Shark Solitaire (free) iTunes Link (will open in iTunes) All iPhone apps, none more so than games, are, or at least should be, [...]
This was found in a thread on a forum I joined a few years back, but I rarely post these days. The post was found in a thread asking what was wrong with today’s youth: It’s good to see unconditional love so strong. Speaking of unconditional love, do we think it exists? I mean, this [...]
