What’s Your Philosophy Type?

CherryPie — Sat, 19 Mar 2011 21:21:31 +0000

I took the short questionnaire to discover my ancient Athenian guru:

Your recommended philosophy-guru is ARISTOTLE.

Key fact: The star pupil of Plato.

Must have: A desire to study the world and see what it reveals.

Key promise: The good life, which comes from living a virtuous life.

Key peril: The virtuous life can be tough.

Most likely to say: “Everything has its proper place.”

Least likely to say: “Science is where humanity went wrong.”

H/T Steve Hayes.

The Making of the T-Mobile ‘Welcome Back’ ad.

Anyone who has ever sung communally will connect with the emotions and feelings of this. Enjoy

As per the comment in the video, it appeals to my sense of humour too

The View from the Secret Bench

CherryPie — Tue, 26 Oct 2010 00:05:25 +0000

I mentioned previously that I had re-found my secret bench at Attingham Park, I invite you to sit with me a while and enjoy the view, whilst we chat and ponder on the current situation.

I find it difficult to concentrate on the view in light of the dire situation we are in and I feel for those who suffer the most in such times, I think this video sums it up.

Photographing Pigeons in the Park

CherryPie — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 21:54:02 +0000

It has come to my notice that the second annual Blogger’s silly week is upon us and I nearly missed it!!

Trying to refocus out of serious mode into silly mode reminded me of some incidents during my recent weekend away in York…

When I was walking in the museum gardens I noticed an unusual coloured pigeon and thought it would make an interesting photograph. The pigeon obviously had other ideas!

Take One – (now you see me now you don’t)

Take Two – (I hope you weren’t expecting me to pose for you!)

The title was inspired by Tom Lehrer – Poisoning Pigeons in the Park

Something tells me that pigeon was one step ahead of the game

Sound Asleep

You close your eyes and you will see
Micro-flashing neon lights
Open your eyes and you will see
It still looks like the same thing
Lie and wait for sleep and listen
To your heart beat too fast for sleep
Close your eyes and you will see
The sound asleep

I want to go, I want to go
I want to go down to go to sleep
Your frame of reference
Is my swimming pool

My, my swimming pool
Still looks like the China Sea
Pool to sea and finally
The sound asleep

Feel the muscles in your face
Twitch, relax, remembering
Everything that went down and will go down
I want to go down to sleep

Insomnia, no sleep disease
Petties parking, feed me please
Lie and wait for sleep and listen
To your heart beat too fast for sleep

Last Winter Feed

CherryPie — Tue, 13 Apr 2010 18:27:41 +0000

Some of you might remember that the last time I visited Attingham Park I saw the herd of deer being fed for the last time this winter. Here is a little video them in full action rushing around. I have been rushing around as much as they have today on more of my rescue missions.

So I will finish of with a nice spring photo and hopefully have a relaxing evening.

Some Valentines Thoughts…
