I never
cease to be amazed at Google! Yeah I know it’s sad but it is after all the
brain I never had! Having a Google search page open while watching quiz shows
is becoming top entertainment for the sad and lonely!! How to lose friends and
influence no body at all, ever!! It’s no wonder I’m single!!
However
there are other times that maybe it’s just as well or at least I don’t have
joint use of my lap top with any significant other because you no longer need
the history tab to ‘check up’ on your internet movements. The way that cookies
and tracking cookies in particular work there are absolutely no secrets. The
questions I would be asked because of recent searches would include such things
as, “Who lives at 31 Toad Lane, Rochdale?” “Why do you want to know the
currency of Croatia?” “So planning a trip to Gibraltar are you? When were you going
to tell me?” “Who the hell is Balto?” And yes sadly many, many more!
Have you
ever wondered about some of the descriptions that are used for the size of
things? In almost every programme these days there is a comparison of ‘something’
that is immediately supposed to let you imagine the size of ‘something’ else! You
are however still pretty much in the dark if you have no idea how big a
football pitch or Olympic sized swimming pool or running track is. To say
nothing of double decker buses, the weight of an elephant or the length of a
marathon!!
One of the
biggest differences between Hollywood and Bollywood is language. Hollywood has
its American, though strictly speaking American isn’t a language but it is
easier to describe it as such as opposed to English as the Americans speak it.
Bollywood has seven recognized languages that films are made and sung in out of
a possible 22 or 198 if you take all the regions of India and Pakistan in to
consideration!! The reason, strangely enough is very similar, Pakistani is not
a language and neither is Indian!!
The Long
Walk To Freedom is the Nelson Mandela story and is a film not to be missed. You
couldn’t write a more powerful work of fiction. Oh it’s a true story! That
makes it so much better doesn’t it? It has got a cracking soundtrack as well by
the way.
Because my
readership is so intelligent I have to change saying, “I bet you didn’t know…..”
to “I bet you knew that I didn’t know…….”
