I lIke eels, birds books and dreams

Read something, get excited about an idea or theme or personality in one title, which leads to reading more about that, creating an endless stream of things to read.Eels have a bizarre and amazing life cycle.

My fascination is the life cycle of eels.

It sounds improbable. No, ridiculous.

But wait... it is true!

Did you already know all about eels and their freaky, odd lives?

If you
didn't, you can not imagine how curiously their lives develop. It is weird, it is shocking, it is completely unbelievable (except, it is true).

Amazingly, all freshwater eels, whether European or American, start and end their lives in the Sargasso Sea.

Where is that?

Read Jean Rhys Wide Sargasso Sea and find out.

Surf School

So I have taken up surfing and am loving it. It turns out that its not at all like surfing the web or skateboarding. Back to the basics. With University out of the way and job hunting being served on a platter and Christmas new year coming round the corner surfing should keep me cool calm and collected. Thats the temperature 'cool' as I dont have a very good wetsuit yet. Not the 'cool' that is synonym for "neat" or "swell". Speaking of swells checkout this clip it's pretty cool (not the temperature one).
