Glass Half Full Vs Glass
Half Empty
Half Empty
Right, here we go, the conventional thinking is that a Glass half full shows optimism and a Glass half empty is used to indicate pessimism.....
Personally, for me, it is the other way around, I like to think of my glass being half empty as a good thing, it means I have already had half a glass. On the other side I think of a glass half full as having only been given half a glass in the first place.....
I suppose I compare it to the saying "It is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved in the first place" or words to that effect, you know the quote anyway. It is better to have had a full glass and enjoyed some of the contents than to have only been given half a glass and to not have tasted it at all.
Anyway, I suppose I am reading to much into this but hey, I suppose life is all about how you interpret things, there will always be opposing views to everything, even if it is positive that there is wrong and right that make up the elements of a situation, the blame may differ depending on which side of the fence you stand.....
Okay, I have cranked my brain into 2nd gear and now I am ready to get a little less intense. I wish everyone a Merry Xmas and hope it will be a good one - I'm not a religious person but hey, it's all about being with the ones you love and enjoying the company of those that you might not get to see very often.
Anyway, I am going to shut up now.
See ya.

This thought is for my Beautiful Girlfriend Kelly who is annoyed that none of my random thoughts include her, this is not because I wish to exclude her, it is merely the fact that I think this tiny little section of my website is so insignificant that it wouldn't make any difference anyway.
However, in the interest of keeping her Happy and Joyful.....
Here is a picture that I photoshopped (Badly) to make her look a little bit like a mouse......
And another lovely abstract piece of art (Means I got bored and messed around with stuff).
I suddenly find myself inspired to do something amazing after watching a prog on BBC3 about Bryony Matthewman and her vision of making a Zombie movie totally inspired by the contributions of people on Youtube.
After having worked on Nightbird with Tom Wilton I have had this hunger.... and I know what you're thinking - I ALWAYS have a hunger, but this one is different, I want to take it further and start something that will either be Spectacular......... or Spectacularly bad.........
The first step is finding a way to reach the people I need to be in touch with - Tom is well established in the business now, maybe he could be able to provide some advice, who knows.
Watch this space.
After much thought, I have come to the conclusion that the Lich King must have some sort of unresolved issue with his father (Special one for all the WoW Players out there)
I find myself with adolescent minded retards constantly trying to outwit me, believing that somehow, in their few naive years on this planet, that they have unlocked the secrets of life and will one day rule the World.......
