Life and it it little surprizes

Well i have not put anything up here in ages well i been busy really and had nothing of worth to say but today in this hour i fell i need to express myself and share all the mad rambling with in my mind none to less just get it all out.

Where to start well to quote Mary Poppins the beginnings a very good place to start so that where i will too. As you may know i feel that life is a great mystery and most of us stubble trough it not doing much just trying to get along day by day not on any great plan as the plan we had for are lives fell beside the wayside may years ago. But no matter life is good and while life can be mostly shit it does offer us a few things the joys of real friends some random madness and the prospect that thing may get better one day. Now as a man of physics i know that for every action there is a equal and opposite reaction cause and effect it is everywhere in are world. The world presents us with many options on a daily basis should we just dare to take them. I believe that once in a while call it what you want nature life god fate destiny there are certain things we cant avoid and they present themselves to you when you least expect it and should you have the courage to take them then what await us is beyond the comprehension of are tiny minds. But you got to take that first step in to the unknown it was John Wayne that once said

"Courage is being scared to death - but saddling up anyway".

John Wayne (1907 - 1979)


I think it very true i am often heard telling people and mostly telling myself out load that it not the destination but the journey in itself that what matters nine out of ten times you know where your going or where you will end up but the journey is a total mystery to you what will happen the way who will you meet when and under what circumstance will you arrive under. That what make it worth going on that where the real excitement in life is the trill of the of the adventure.

A few weeks ago this happened to me i was minding my own business life was moving along nicely again and then BANG! life step in sideways from a angle i not able to see coming and presents itself to me with something i never would have tough of So being the all new me that i am instead of self sabotaging myself as i have many time i chose to take the adventure and i lead me on a path to where I'm am right here right now. When i worked my last job i know a man there named Jeremy a man of amazing faith and he once told me

Vince just have faith send your prayers to god send his your wishes and your dream and he will grant them for you in time now it may not be when you want them to happen but all in good time in his time.

Jeremy Opoku

This is also very true and i found it to be correct and ye low i walked to the valley of darkness alone walking the path that i have forged for myself only to be meet at the other end by someone else at the end and what happens when two road meet at one point.They join and form a new road one that leads up and up out of the valley in the light and where it goes i dont know just yet but i going to have one hell of a time finding out.

For it not the destination but the journey in itself that what matters

So i leave you with that positive note for i fear i cant express my joy with word alone and if you read all that i have had a blood good try also my words fail me and for anyone that know me know how much i love to talk that a big thing.

I depart back to the lap to ponder more thinks i leave you with a Tweet from P.DIDDY which i find just wonderful and i like to share with you all.Good look god bless and hopefully i see you soon TAKE THAT ADVENTURE YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN!

When I look into her eyes I see God and he's smiling at me.

A day off midweek!

Well a day off mid week is worth it weight in gold and it been something i sadly missed since i rejoined the rat race there last month. while i really loving having 3of4 weekends off a month there just something you can only get down during the week. SO unlike most day off which require a nice sleep in this one started quite early.The great benefit of a day of is not having to rush anyway a leisurely breakfast and shower and other pampering that one cant afford when you rush to work in the morning.
What to do with the day lots to do jobs to be done.
To town park and ride i think now i enjoy a nice drive but today must have been national second gear day so many very slow drivers no time for that gas clutch 3rd gear and gone.

Town on a quite Thursday is nice cant Handel it on the weekend to busy for me really. Mp3 player in and a nice stroll about pay my credit card bill and off to look at the shops at all the lovely thing to that i might be able to buy take pictures of all the nice clothes i want to own as i dream of pay day all not so far away now.
A spot of lunch in brew feet up leather couch it all good then back to not shopping for thing with the small exception of a new necklace but it to small need to make it bigger and i love you man on DVD.
After a nice day in town home to sort a few bit and of course share this all with you.
So The lesson for today is enjoy the rare day off mid week they like gold dust.AS for what next i may just curl up in bed watch a DVD eat some toast.

Something for the long weekend.

Ya you well know it the August bank holiday weekend here in Ireland anyway for all you lucky to have it off it mean 3 day weekend. Now most people will be doing a lot of driving and i present to you my latest project the great travel CD.
That right there nothing more important in a car journey or road trip then a great soundtrack to listen to as you drive make the whole trip that much better.

I have been working on one and finally it is perfected. I know what our saying a buit professor a mixed CD is easy to make pick a few track and burn them to a CD. I'm am afraid that is wrong. The art to making a great driving CD is best summed up by John Cusack in the movie high Fidelity.If you never seen it please do go see it it fantastic movie.

1)Consider your intended audience.

2)Consider whether you want the mix to convey a certain emotion or message. Pick music that you like and appreciate. How much you enjoy making the mix will be apparent in the final package.

3)Don't always focus on a genre and a theme. Putting widely different tracks in a compilation can add contrast for the listener.

4)Be flexible. Collect a set of tracks as a rough draft for the CD with the expectation you may decide not to include some of them.

5)VERY IMPORTANT!
Play around with the arrangement of the tracks. Think of the mix tape as a prolonged listening experience. You don't want the listener to get bored or skip songs. The first few tracks should grab the listener and get their attention. Group slower or softer songs together and then gradually build up momentum to more upbeat songs. A fast/heavy song might not go well after a soft, acoustic one.

6)Finalize your track arrangement and listen to the version a few times, making necessary adjustments. Feel free to remove some tracks and add others. It's possible that you may realize new tracks you'd like to add late in the process.

7)Burn the CD that you will make copies from, now that you're happy with the compilation.If you've been using MP3s, keep a specific folder for your mix and name it appropriately.

Well that the idea while it should be a bit of work you should also enjoy it i take a lot of passion in my music and things like this are something i love to do.

Here is the listing of the tracks on the CD now they may not all be to your taste but then again you never know.
I will list them in order that they appear on the CD and gave reason why i picked them.


1. Calvin Harris "I'm Not alone"
I'm not a huge fan of his but i do like this it reminds me of dance music from the 90,s it so hard to find good dance music theses days. Also he told me he got a hug for me because he i was Bron in the 80,s

2. The Blues Brothers "everybody needs someone to love"

That it the CD in all it glory and if you CD wish to try it please do i love it and allway look forward to getting in to the car now.

A few quotes on Change

In a world of ever changing dought and fear i went looking for some inspiration and i found these so i said i would share with you all.I find this mostly important in the wake of the CCFC news that after friday they be gone forever. I know a lot of people that are compelety distroyed by this news. Shame really what is a city with out its team.

Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind. To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse. To the hopeful it is encouraging because things may get better. To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better

.
King Whitney Jr.

Change is the constant, the signal for rebirth, the egg of the phoenix

Christina Baldwin

This is my personal favouate i think it really hits the nail on the head.

Nothing in the world is permanent, and we're foolish when we ask anything to last, but surely we're still more foolish not to take delight in it while we have it. If change is of the essence of existence one would have thought it only sensible to make it the premise of our philosophy.

W. Somerset Maugham (1874 - 1965), The Razor's Edge, 1943

A combination of two great loves of mine

As the title reads combination of two love of mine. One of my fondest things i can remember from my childhood is visiting my grandad and listing to recording of old radio dramas he had. The sort that played out back in the 60's which is where my love for radio started i guess.

Now the other great love of my mines is the Legend of Zelda series of all the game i played this is my most favourite. when i came across the project zreo team and found out what they had planned i was as you can bet quite excited.

So for any fan of either or both i suggest taking a look at this

Riddle me this! the soultion

Right as promised here is the answer to the riddle you may want to take a minute to re-read it and have another go. Right so here it is for anyone that wants to know well for Mag's anyway.

DRUM ROLL PLEASE!
The answer to the riddle is "NO" as in "no" i cant guess the answer.

Quite annoying isn't It now don't worry if you didn't get it i sure didn't
but i will share some more fact about this riddle that may help to ease the pain.
The reason that this riddle stumps so many adult is that it appeals to a vain notion that some stigma lurks at the center of all people. We feel that is we try hard enough we might just unlock the answer. Which has you thinking of all types of thing abstract notions and wired scenarios. While young children just give up rather quickly and in the process find the right answer.

If you wish to comment on this or just vent your frustrations please fell free

Riddle me this!

I Found this riddle almost a year ago and it always been one of my favourites. Now it not particularly hard it did leave me quite nicely flummoxed and even after i was told the answer it was a day or so till it clicked.

So have a go yourself i post the answer tomorrow if anyone interested leave a comment if you are and maybe your guess. OK here it is and good luck



" I turn polar bears white and i will make your cry. I make guys have to pee and girls comb there hair. I make celebrities look stupid and normal people look like celebrities.
