It would appear that, many alien abductees share some similar facial characteristics. Whether these similarities occur as a result of the experience of alien abduction, probing and experimentation, etc., or whether the characteristics are entirely natural and merely predisposes the individual to a higher probability of abduction by aliens is uncertain.

“oh, I’m just saying, if we leave them off we might not need to abduct them in their sleep, and there’d be an end to all these vile anal probe stories”.
See, I have my daily moleskines set up on Paper but the trial isn’t going well. How do they do it! Maybe I should get a decent stylus. Or maybe just try harder? Try, try, and try again, like Bruce’s spider. That’s the message from the guys at the app.
Didn’t know whether I should add anything to the eulogies for Bert Weedon who died yesterday, aged 92 (nearly). Then I thought, what else you going to write about?
When I was small an elderly neighbour handed me a solid, black guitar case; he’d been clearing out stuff in his loft. Inside was a three-quarter size acoustic guitar, with steel strings which cut into my soft pads like cheese wires, and a five inch split from the sound hole to the bridge. Still, it was a guitar!, and that’s something I didn’t have.
Taking it out of the case revealed underneath a well-thumbed copy of Bert Weedon’s Play in a Day (see picture). Well, I’m still waiting for that Day!
I don’t really blame Bert Weedon for my innate impatience and lack of discipline and perseverance. I eventually passed the instrument on to a younger neighbour, bought a more expensive guitar and a teach yourself book of more recent songs, sadly with exactly the same result.
God bless, Bert Weedon.
I can’t quite recall if I’ve actually seen Edvard Munch’s painting, The Scream. Probably not. But we did put an offer on his house.
Unfortunately, we was gazumped.

I joined Art Finder today, too see if I could get anymore out of this wonderful site as a member. I’ve been following it, as a mere observer, for about a year via the superb Flipboard app (probably the sexiest looking feed reader in the world wide web).
I don’t really know what Art Finder is about. It appears, on the surface, from my view, to be about strangers shouting about their art purchases. As most of the works are by quite famous artists, I’m guessing the people aren’t buying the real thing. Or maybe they’re just shouting out their favourites. It doesn’t matter to me. There’s great art, well produced images, and the whole thing moves along like the clappers; there’s always something of interest and inspiration.
