21st January 2007...

Well well well.... as the three buckets said.... my very own blog.... strange that I should think of starting one now, at the tender age of 37... I remember keeping a diary from 1986 until 1988, detailing my experiences as a sixth former at King Edwards College.... in future years it will be a useful tool for those who wish to end the Comprehensive system.... indeed, for those who wish to end education full stop.... and would that be a bad thing?? I remember sleeping in my A-Level exams, but I don't remember any of the questions (although the two are probably interrelated... all education did for me was improve my vocabulary and leave me with an unfortunate prediliction for using three or four punctuation marks where one would suffice... which is probably not what the system was designed for... but then, grammar and spelling are a fairly modern phenomenon in English, or so I was led to believe... Will Shakespeare, the famous playwright, spelled his own name fourteen different ways, including Shakspur, Shaxper and Shakspear... yet I dropped marks in English for doing exactly the same thing... strange.... I find my punctuation system a far more natural one... if a full stop indicates a pause , then why not three for a longer one? A small question gets a ?, so why doesn't a big, urgent or surprising question get more??? And as for a shock! horror!! debilitating terror!!! But I digress... which is probably the story of my life.... so, what's is this blog for?? Who knows? Who cares?? Will anybody else be reading it anyway??? Will any of them even be caught out by DRINK COCA-COLA the insidious subliminal messages I will pepper the pages with???? Well, let me know out there... For readers or no, I intend to carry on at a regularly irregular rate, posting general stuff to these here pages.. you may find stuff here that's entertaining, thought provoking, or just generally wierd... you could have a competition amongst yourselves... "Is Wisebeard wise? Does he have a beard?? Or is he just some idiot who expects me to waste time reading drivel...???" Personally, my money's on the last one.... See You soon...

About Me

My photo
Well, about me.... in the words of Gag Halfrunt, "Wisebeard's just zis guy, you know.." My official biography reads "Kirk Parsons is." Once i die,which I plan to do at some point in the future, this will become, "Kirk Parsons isn't." But for those who really want to know, the answers are all in here somewhere....
