Mr Mist’s Blog

I have spent the weekend sorting the house out. I have cleaned and painted 3 walls. Nothing else of note has happened. I need to do some things to put on here, if I can find time during the week then I will.

Amusing little flash thing [www.starterupsteve.com]. Great if you remember He-Man.

I think I remember when these ducks first started their journey [news.bbc.co.uk], now they are due to hit shore.

This week’s 10 new things [news.bbc.co.uk]

I will have cheap plastic stuff later today. Oh yes.

Some of the recent happenings…

Gunman kills five colleagues [news.bbc.co.uk] at the Lockheed Martin plant in Mississippi USA. He then turned the gun on himself. There seems on first investigation to be no reason behind the random killings.

The two conjoined twins that were going through a seperation operation have both died [news.bbc.co.uk]. The prospects of successful completion were only 50%, and it was their wish to go through with it knowing this, but it is nonetheless a sad occurance.

New technology is still foreign to many people [news.bbc.co.uk] with only 3% of people taking this test [www2.amd.com] coming up with a perfect score. (I am one of those 3%, but, then, being a techy geek that is not entirely surprising.) I wonder how that percentage shifts depending on the demographic that is taking the test?

In one of those things that, from my point of view at least, seems to have no point whatsoever, a number of innocent Russians have been killed in a random suicide attack on a rock concert [news.bbc.co.uk] near Moscow. This sort of thing is really utterly bizarre.

Here’s this week’s ten things you didn’t know until this week [news.bbc.co.uk]. Including what Shcumacher does when he’s not racing, and how cheeks are supposed to show fitness and attractiveness.
