the footy, pt 1

True story, as told to me by a bunny:

sondha at football?

i better explain the rules to u

they hv a ball, but it’s not quite round

it’s the thing they kick around tho, that’s the ball

sometimes it bounces funny, but rest assured, it’s still considered a ball

then right, the men wearing same coloured shirts r in a team

so they try get the ball in between the posts

that is called a goal. and then if one side scores more than the other, they win!

it’s simple

the beatings and shouting that happen in the interim are part of this .. “goaling ritual”

banging the ball on the ground is a male distraction technique; they combine it with grunting

 

midnight

I’m so gonna regret this when I have to wake up at 5am, but inspired blog surfing has turned up these nuggets :

“A great marriage is not when the ‘perfect couple’ get together. It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.”

“Regrets are a waste of time. They’re the past crippling you in the present.”

my defense is that my pre-twentysomething neighbours have just pulled from the beginning the semester toga party, and are now making enough noise for a legion of cats fighting. *sigh*

also, what better to accompany the insomnia that begets the evocative and inspired beauty of eating chicken noodle soup from the pot, in a (beautiful and new, although quite warm) bathrobe, while scratching mosquito bites.

No, don’t answer that.

 

The Swiss Cheese Model of Risk

A model of human risk factors proposed by James Reason where successive layers of cheese represent protections against risk and the holes in the layers represent errors, oversights, or weaknesses in the barriers; when the holes in the layers of cheese line up, accidents occur. (Oller, Oller and Badon, 2006)

a rather cheesy theory which is full of holes. =D

 

Echos down a hallway of mirrors, words from another life. Looking forward is sometimes like looking back.
