Computer code travelling across the internet like a crowd of tourists, surging towards the next data. A series of zeros and ones. Each travelling in a different direction. Where are they going? What search will it be next? Has a writer suddenly got a new idea? Whatever the question, the internet can search it all.Continue reading “0011001”
Things I Miss
Growing up in the seventies, I was used to a more simpler way of life. Back in the days when there were no computers, unless they were in a school office, no mobile phones and no internet.

If you could choose anyone, past or present, and walk that proverbial mile in his or her shoes, who would you choose, and why would you choose that person? I would choose to walk in my dad’s shoes.

Darlene
I would have happily married Darlene if it weren’t for her annoying habit of telling me what to do. If I want to sit in front of the television, binge watching Greys Anatomy, then that was my privilege. When she was cleaning the house from top to bottom, waking me up at six in theContinue reading “Darlene”
Pathos
The Word of The Day is PATHOS Sarah hated pathos of any kind, her losing her sight wasn’t something she wanted people to feel sorry for.

Learning braille, getting used to beingContinue reading “Pathos”

QUESTIONS From Melanie https://sparksfromacombustiblemind.wordpress.com/2022/04/18/share-your-world-4-11-2022/ In your opinion, what do you buy way more of than most people? I buy way too much for my daughter. She plays the granddaughter card, and whenever we go out she goes through the aisles, pointing out the perfect gift. (Even though she has way too much already) Clothes, toys,Continue reading “https://sparksfromacombustiblemind.wordpress.com/2022/04/18/share-your-world-4-11-2022/a”
Three for Pensitivity
A newspaper on his lap, Tom read the latest on the rumour mill. Gossip in the main, but sometimes a story caught his eye, written to help the truth emerge, but surrounded by the rumour mill. Celebrities, their affair general knowledge. Politicians, and their ever changing corruption, but the general public always aware it isContinue reading “Three for Pensitivity”
