Enco, straw man argument. I did not say that children would never have to fear anything.

In the USA, the sale of children’s Kevlar lined backpacks to prevent bullets is quite common.

Recently, in Texas I believe, there has been an issuance of DNA kits to parents so they can file their children’s DNA, in case shooting dismemberments render it har…[Read more]

Enco, you’re missing the vital step. All this talk of successfully or unsuccessfully defending children doesn’t even pause for a second to contemplate not having an attack on them in the first place.

It probably doesn’t seem like wriggling and twisting if it’s something one is used to doing.

Ah yes. More guns. Of course. Not just the police and military.

It always amazes me how twisty and wriggly the gun-owning American has to be to present a ‘rational’ argument for keeping guns available to all.

Still, as obviously no lesson whatsoever can be learned from ALL the other first world countries attitudes to guns, it’s probably a good…[Read more]

Thanks, Reg!!  Happy new year to you!

You’re thoughtful, Jake. I’m quite lucky in that I have ten acres abutting an unmanned wildlife park with maybe five of my acres being woodland.
Loads of trees have been felled and chopped to about two or three feet logs. My ambition for the spring is to get a small power saw, chop them up and haul them into the log rack. There are chunks of the…[Read more]

The answer is to exercise. It’s the question of how, and of choosing motivation smartly.
For me, yes Jake I don’t think revulsion is too strong a word to describe my relationship with exercise for its own sake. Whereas for me again, I recognise my delight at creating something I want. Not need, really. Want. And I don’t seem to care how much energ…[Read more]

We had a cord of wood delivered outside, and I have hand carried it up 13 steps, through the house and on to the deck to stack, over a period of two weeks.   A cord of wood weighs between 2,000 and 3,000 pounds.
I love our log fire enough for that not to have felt even slightly inconvenient.

I tried a 20 minute daily workout on a cross trainer…[Read more]

@Jake

One of your better rhythmic rhetorics – could almost put it to a tune 🙂

Hi Encogitationer,

If a dying person refuses usage of his organs after death, the organs are not used. Therefore the corpse he is about to become, cannot be harvested. It had the right to remain intact when living, under general laws. Once it is dead, it has the right not to be harvested.

The right to not get pregnant is rather optimistic,…[Read more]
