Still unsure how this will work

Wide Eyed and Clueless


 I have no idea how you can create an interesting text post here, but I live in hope that I may learn how to do so.

Being utterly without a clue and completely unfamiliar with the whole blogging phenomenon, the rise of this sort of activity on the Web totally passed me by. 

 I therefore have absolutely no idea as to whether this blog will ever see the light of day and, if it does, whether anyone will read it. They have no reason to do so and must surely be browsing the Web with time to kill.

 If you are reading this: thank you. How did you happen across this doggerel?

Move Along Now...

To be brutally honest, there's likely to be nothing here that will be remotely interesting. I'm just an 'ordinary person'; a complete no-mark. Nothing exciting happens in my life. Ever. 

 Thus any posts that I put here is likely to be as dull as ditch-water. If there are any additional posts here then they're highly likely to be rants. 

 It may be that any posts here are purely to let of steam and to try to salve the increasing cognitive dissonance that is building up as I age. That, and the sense of ennui. 

 Again, apologies for intruding into your attention. I promise not to do it again. You have the choice to never view this blog again and I commend you for deciding not to bother in the future.

Yes, it is annoying to have to go through this process. I appreciate that. However, I really don't want the bulk of comments to be vacuous spam posted in the main by bots.

If you are a reasoning human, please persevere.

Phyrric Victories and Losses

Note: I had intended to post this article last week, but unfortunately I was unable, due to many appointments that I was obliged to keep. I'm 'late to the party' with this comment, but I hope that you'll consider it anyway. Thank you for your patience. An Historical Introduction Phyrrus of Epirus (c.318 - 272 BC) was a classical Greek General who won a costly victory at the Battle of Asculum. This is now referred to as a "Phyrric Victory" since he was quoted (by Plutarch) as saying: If we are victorious in one more battle with the Romans, we shall be utterly ruined. (Sorry for the hideous paraphrasing.) Phyrric Victories and Losses The General Election on the previous Thursday was labelled as what is referred to as a "snap election", since it was called by the Prime Minister at six weeks notice, which is a very short time as far as General Elections go. The result of the election was bizarre to say the least. To bring in Phyrrus...

A 'Life' Observation?

Although I'm very interested and engaged in the current domestic political process here in the UK, I'm conscious that a lot of my posts are covering political events and attitudes and I worry about becoming one of the myriad 'political commentators'. I have no intention of wanting to, or becoming one. The world has far too many already; most of them burning oxygen for no good benefit! To keep it light and to vary the post content, I'm going to sound off, this week, about an everyday observation that some of you might find amusing, but I guess, most of you won't. The Evils of Smoking Tobacco The UK has recently introduced new legislation to further regulate the sale of tobacco. That's a whole (or series) of posts in and of itself, but I'm staying away from politics this week. My observation is of a more personal nature. Since the new legislation has taken effect, the standard amounts that can be legally retailed in the UK has changed. It...

From Rize Up UK If you need reasons why, check out Rize Up       The impact of not voting in the last referendum is summarised in this infographic. Although it does appear to assume that all of the non-voters would vote the same way, which they clearly wouldn't, it does quite starkly illustrate the impact of those denied a vote or abstaining. From Rize Up UK. Graphic showing the number of people eligible to vote that did not in the previous referendum.  Please; get up off your butt and register to vote if you haven't done so.
