While watching some of the Rio Olympics running coverage, I came to the conclusion that the 100m sprints were more exciting than the marathon. And that my favourite length of running race was the […]

Why a Facebook misfit belongs on Steemit

FROT September 18, 2016

My controversial opinions caused a few issues on Facebook. It’s being reported that Mark Zuckerberg is freaking out about the decline in “personal updates” that is occurring on Facebook. People are still posting plenty of links to all sorts of crap, but they don’t often write anything personal. It’s not really all that surprising. I […]

HOW’S YOUR ARSE?

FROT September 13, 2016

HOW’S YOUR ARSE? Americans say ass when they mean arse. An ass is actually a donkey like animal that makes braying noises (much like our New Zealand Prime Minister, but that’s another story) and is popular among people who either can’t afford a horse, or don’t have living space for one. Getting back to the […]

PHOTOS FROM THE BEAUTIFUL WELLINGTON NEW ZEALAND WATERFRONT ORIENTAL BAY – WELLINGTON, NEW ZEALAND Being lucky enough to live in Wellington, one of my favourite places to hang out is Oriental Bay, by the yachts and luxury apartments. On a calm day (which despite the windy reputation, does occur occasionally) it’s mind blowingly awesome. Sometimes […]

I HAVE FINALLY QUIT FACEBOOK

FROT August 1, 2016

So Long, and Thanks for All the Facebook On the 1st of July 2016 I logged out of Facebook and stopped using it. It’s been a month now, and I’m pleased to be free of its grip. I haven’t closed down my account, but I have finally managed to do what I was planning to […]

FACEBOOK

FROT July 31, 2016

FAKEBOOK NO MORE How to quit Facebook and happily stop using it. Like giving up addictive foods, such as sugar, alcohol, bread, or coffee, I think the easiest way to quit Facebook is to do a clean 100% quit – no reducing, cutting down, or vaguely avoiding – just totally quit, all or nothing.
