happy easter
well folks its nearly that time of year and we will be heading off tomorrow on what has over the last couple of years been an easter pilgramage to the east. we are visiting Adelaide and Melbourne over the next 10 days to see friends and family and to say goodbye (for the next couple of years) because we probably wont see them again until after our UK trip (unless they come visit us).
I hope everyone of you has a great and safe easter and that you get all the chocolate you deserve.
love and best wishes

**Hell Explained by Chemistry Student **
The following is an actual question given on a University of
Washington chemistry mid term.
The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared
it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now
have the pleasure of enjoying it as well:
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic
(absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law
(gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some
variant.
_________________________________________________________________
One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we
need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate
at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once
a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.
As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different
religions that exist in the world today.
Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their
religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these
religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we
can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as
they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase
exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in
Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and
pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand
proportionately as souls are added.
This gives two possibilities:
1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls
enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase
until all Hell breaks loose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in
Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes
over.
So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman
year that, "It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you," and
take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then
number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic
and has already frozen over.
The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it
follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore,
extinct..., leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a
divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh
my God."

this could be fun

50th birthday - still going
well my birthday looks like it could take 3-6 months to actually finalise the celebrations. i am not complaining. thank you sue.
on Friday we enjoyed a great meal and night at the Loose Box (its not what you think - but i am sure it is often what you think). initially it was a restaurant in a "stables". while it is no longer so, many people eat hay i am sure.
sue had friday off (sort of) and she picked me up from work at 2:30. we drove to Mundaring (its on the outskirts of town) and after doing some administrative chores (submitting passport forms) we signed in.
we had a bottle of champagne, some fine cheese and a bottle of red while we talked about our impending migration to the UK.
the setting was wonderful, the company was fantastic and the wine and cheese were exquisite.
then we had dinner (i kid you not). which was a joy. the degustation menu with associated wines was excellent and well worth the journey and the money. Go ahead - treat yourself you wont be disappointed.
following dinner we watched tv, drank a little more wine and slept.
check out was late so around 10:00am we got up and had breakfast. this was a basket of fresh fruit, croissants, a quiche, some brioche and juice. We skipped coffee and drove back to town.
another fine event in the 50th birthday calendar.
All that remains to do now is buy a book (s) with a voucher and arrange to drive really fast around a race track in a very fast car.
life is tough in Dullsville but someone's got to do it and it might as well be us
