'Cher Ami' A true hero

Well extraordinary days never ever seem dull and yes that is a bit obvious-but look at the first letter of the first 9 words! Wow im clever. Went to the library today which was pretty useless seeing as they have no books of any use to anyone between the ages of 11 and 65. Still what can you expect from a library in Harrogate. Had a toasted sandwich for lunch. Mmmmm lunch is rarely something special for me, falling as it does just after breakfast, however when i get up earlier i make sure lunch is worth it! Not that im obssessed with food at all!

Watched some programs about fermats last theorem in the afternoon. Its strange how most mathematicians either attempted or succeeded in commtiming suicide. Strange thing really-quite tragic when it was all over numbers. I guess its all about obsession.

If you have a spare moment this week do check out http://ehrweb.aaas.org/ehr/parents/Pigeons!.html. Its a truly wonderful website. Especially make sure you read the bit at the bottom about Cher Ami-its worth the scroll. I assure you, you will never look at a pigeon in the same way. The mating routine is quite strange too.

Thought for the day: Live life as though you are a penguin-I find it helps...
