FUNNY REDBUBBLE BEHAVIOUR SOLVED
I think I have solved my intermittent problem with Firefox and Redbubble
I don’t know why Firefox was not working right but Opera was, however here is the change that I made.
A couple of days ago, under advice from my ISP, I changed my MTU to 1500 because I was having major (i.e. ultra-mega) pro…
Intermittent Problem with Firefox?
I have an intermittent problem with firefox whereby items in my activity list have heaps of blank space between them. Seems OK with safari.
This affects displays of comments on my work, favourtings, featurings etc….
Anyone else got this problem?
2010
And so, a new decade starts.
Still people war with each other.
Still stupidity rules as government.
Still children go hungry.
Still, 1500 children die every hour.
What glorious futures were envisaged by the great science fiction writers? Wonderful transports to alien frontiers, technological delights to clean and entertain us.
Yet every day we come closer to the sort of future offe…
Holy Jesus - It's Christmas and All the Non-Christians have something to celebrate!
So most Christians will be celebrating the birth of Christ. Given.
But most non-Christians have something important to celebrate too!
Imagine someone who tells people to love one another, to turn the other cheek, to put others first and to reject materialism.
Imagine someone who spends much of their life healing others – for no charge. Who was often attacked but never retaliated. Wh…

If you dont like censorship of Redbubble then READ THIS NOW
Stephen Conroy has just announced his Government will censor all internet traffic with a mandatory ISP-level filter.
Over 120,000 Australians have taken a stand against his flawed scheme that will do little more than divert funds away from where they’re needed most, and now he plans to bring legislation before Parliament next year. “Can you send him an email or fax letting him know your rea…
CHRISTMAS FAYRE
HERE is some CHRISTMAS FAYRE
I thought it relevant to this Holiday Season
Despair is not the opposite to Hope
I’m looking for a word that is the opposite of hope,
and all my searching leads to despair.
The word and the feeling.
Because despair is not the opposite of hope.
Despair is the result on unattained hopes.
There is a condition that I can only describe is ‘just being without hope, without despair’ which is like being dead. That is the word I search for. Though I don’t know what it i…
Art and the Ego
It has been said that Artists are ego-trippers, those obsessed with their own ego.
And that they are self-indulgent. And that they delight in the limelight. The applause.
No.
The Artist loses themselves in their art.
The ego is one of the payments.
The self is unimportant.

To express. To be in terms of whatever the Art requires of yo…
Art must be paid for.
