Once upon a time, at Squirters Lodge Terry Dustcart was taken on a shopping trip by the carer Montana City. The shop chosen was the Rotten Food Store in Rotten Egg Lane, Goodmayes. First on the line were a fresh supply of rotten eggs, next mouldy cabbage, then sick tomatoes. Then there was the...
One Tuesday as usual Bernard Ink was busy doing something in his flat when, 'all of a sudden the a voice was read over the intercom. It said:
"Dial - a- Ride"
Because Tuesday wasn't the day he normally went to Mitzon Day Centre he went berserk screaming, bawling and shouting and banging doors...
Last Sunday's message was on the concluding verses of Matthew 10, the famous "I came not to bring peace but a sword" passage. It's pretty chilling. Jesus demands utmost loyalty from his followers, that they love him more than parents, children, husband, wife. This doesn't mean you don't love...
One day in the middle of the week whilst people were waiting at the bus stop two London buses running up the wrong side of the road suddenly jumped onto the pavement and kicked passers - by up into the air.
The mad buses then ran along the pavement and started to chase terrified people...
One day a group of people went bowling at The Bighead bowling alley in Ilford. Each person picked up a ball and threw it, but one person did the opposite, he threw himself at the pins at the far end of the lane and found himself being sucked into the conveyer belt that returns the balls to their...
I'm in a new play and this time I have a major role, so I have a lot of lines to learn. It's just a short one-act play about a couple and their adult son. I play the mother. The father has some kind of dementia, possibly Alzheimer's, and the son wants his mother to put him (the father) in...
Just got back from listening to a speaker talk about marketing yourself and the image you project. She asked us to write down a list of words we use to describe ourselves. It was all about image and goals. And I thought, What if you have no goals?
What if it takes so much to get through...
There's been a lot of debate lately about stem cell research, and also a lot of misinformation on both sides, but mainly--I hate to say it--from the pro-stem-cell research side. By lumping in all stem cells with human embryonic stem cells, they make it sound like those who are opposed to...
There's an interesting scene in Matthew, Chapter 17, right after Jesus goes up on the mountain with Peter, James, and John and gets transfigured right before their eyes. While all this is going on apparently the rest of the disciples, who, if you remember had been given power to heal and cast...
Once upon a time a giant potato went on the rampage eating up any person who got in it's way.
The potato brought terror to London.
This mad vegetable once burst into a school playground gobbling up 20 children.
Terrified out of their lives the remaining children rushed into the...
There is a scene in the first "Smokey and the Bandit" movie where Burt Reynolds (Bandit) and Sally Fields (Frog) are strolling in a woods having a conversation while taking a break from evading Sheriff Justice. She is from New York City and is a wanna-be chorus line dancer. He, of course, is a...
Ok, I have to admit it, I was seduced by a radio ad. I should have known better. The ad was for the movie "Seven Days in Utopia" and it made it sound so interesting that I went out and bought the movie. Somebody is laughing all the way to the bank and it isn't me.
It isn't all bad. It...
I was at Wal-Mart the other day looking through the discount DVD bin when I came across an old favorite of mine, "Smokey and the Bandit." Actually, it was all seven "Smokey and the Bandit" movies. So of course I had to get it because I had only heard of the first two.
I have to admit, they...
The other day I had to do quite a bit of rework on a project because I "forgot" a step. Actually, what happened, is that they changed the procedure and this particular step somehow wasn't communicated to me at the time. It's not the first time with this particular person. I was beginning to...
Gomendosi's blog, "Working Twice As Hard to Be Seen as Half Normal" really hit home with me. I feel like that a lot, especially because "officially" I am "normal". That I do manage to pull it off as well as I do is due to the constant self-monitoring and self-discipline that I must do. Along...
Well, hello again, your back I see, that last things I wrote were a little bit much huh... well get used to it cause I get confused a lot! ; ]
The thing I find intolerable is that I have to actually work harder than most people and you guys will get this I?m sure;
I have to censure myself as...
MAY CONTAIN NUTS... AND SWEARING!
ARRRRRGH, this ****ing computer, I usualy take ages to think out what I am writing because as I am so easily misunderstood I have to choose my words carefully and this computer has a problem where it locks up all the time and then I have to reset and I...
I thought I would have a crack at making a blog as I figure that I have been trying to do everything else lately.
Well since I got my latest job as a salesman I feel I have been less myself and more of this guy who isn't really anything I ever want to be, he's like some computers idea of what...
In my last blog I wrote a bit about a letter I got from the employment agency and how their specialist deemed me "fit for any job". I also wrote I filed a complaint because I, as well as my own therapist (as opposed to their therapist) thinks I rather have to sort my stuff out before I end up in...
