  • Tremors

    We have had some tremors recently… several in a row following the big one the other day. Here is the report… and a pic.



    Interesting how they make a series…

  • Sing…

    “…I feel the earth move under my feet

    I feel the sky tumblin’ down, tumblin’ down…”

    … join in when you want to

    Last night it was recorded at an initial 5.9, but has since been upgraded to a more exciting 6.3 As a result, the map on the below shows a larger blob than the one I posted.

  • Oh that was a big one

    I was just on the phone to Jo in London. I started brushing my teeth when the whole world started spinning and shaking. That felt like a nasty one! Why does the earth insist on moving?!

    (sorry the maps do not fit the window! it is too late at night to sort it out properly)

    I almost shat myself…

  • God is Love

    This is one of the strangest places in Taipei. Christianity has a long history of ‘travelling’ around the world destroying other cultures, and it would seem the Las Vegas sect has rolled into town with this one. I really need to go in and check this out, since it must be pretty cool inside to match the over-blown exterior.

    I have actually spoken to a couple of people about Christianity – people who grew up as Buddhists. It is always fascinating to hear their views, and their perception of it. The thing that people seem to be looking for is answers, and in my opinion Christianity does not give them. Further, they see it as a benign, safe religion – and all I see is torture, war and destruction.

    Still, people are entitled to their views.



    Jesus saves lives …. (props to Lars for the pic)
