Many orthodox people speak as though it were the business of sceptics to disprove received dogmas rather than of dogmatists to prove them. This is, of course, a mistake. If I were to suggest that between the Earth and Mars there is a china teapot revolving about the sun in an elliptical orbit, nobody would be able to disprove my assertion provided I were careful to add that the teapot is too small to be revealed even by our most powerful telescopes. But if I were to go on to say that, since my assertion cannot be disproved, it is intolerable presumption on the part of human reason to doubt it, I should rightly be thought to be talking nonsense. If, however, the existence of such a teapot were affirmed in ancient books, taught as the sacred truth every Sunday, and instilled into the minds of children at school, hesitation to believe in its existence would become a mark of eccentricity and entitle the doubter to the attentions of the psychiatrist in an enlightened age or of the Inquisitor in an earlier time.

It is windy.

Something on the roof bangs when it’s windy.

A banging noise, all night, in my bedroom. Caused by the wind.
On the way to rehearsal, and this comes on the radio. (Taken with instagram)

I’ve made way more dance tracks than Rock. Here is a wee bit of one I’m making now.

Why I am wrong about NASA
Turns out, as much as I love the Shuttle program, NASA are right to concentrate on more long range missions.
Also as much as I believe NASA should do it, it will be a company like spaceX that builds a MARS system. But… Will the USA pay for it? Not now
Even though, the financial bailout was way more than the entire Apollo program. Just saying
Thursday musing
You may have noticed a lack of movement on The Cassini front.
Truth is I’ve had nothing to say. Hardly played my guitar, as there is no riffs coming.
Need to rethink the whole concept. Going to do an acoustics song and a dance track, then I shall see where I am.
On another note, testicles.
