Look at how he dances wobbling his features that are big,
But underneath that cheeky smile, he’s a psychopathic pig.

Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Indigo Violet
Are some of the colours you can get
But there is aquamarine
And magenta is seen
Its the most confusing decision this week yet
Some ladies use clothes that are small,
Hardly covering much body at all,
So lets call a small cardigan,
By a new name the “bradigan”,
For something thats more than a shawl.
If a computer tells you some news,
Thats good bad or set to confuse,
Instead of being “notified”,
I think that using “botified”,
Will be a word that we all could well use.

Spineless Wonder
There once was a creature called Paul,
Who predicted the results in football,
He was right again and again,
Up to the final with Spain,
And even then the octopus made the right call.
Monday
Grasshoppers can bite.
Tuesday
The GM food scare may well have started from a discredited scientific study that poisoned mice with potatoes. All the study really showed was that potatoes contain poisons (which incidently are contained on the outisde 6mm of a potato).
Wednesday
People have the ability to take a football predicting octopus seriously. Incidently a German win today would at last show that octopodes cannot predict football results! (Something surely we should all know!)
Unfortunately for my desire for rational explanations Spain won and the octopus was correct.
Even worse news is that it predicted the final but if it hadn’t a parakeet would have been celebrated for its psychic powers!
Thursday
On Saturday it is the 31st annual “Moon Amtrak” day, when people gather by the side of a railway in Orange County and bare their backsides at passing trains. This annual event occurs on the second Saturday in July every year.
Friday
If you have 8 railings and remove the 2nd 3rd 6th and 8th railings, running a stick down the 1st 4th 5th and 7th at an even speed will give you a tango beat. (incidently if you have 30 railings leave 1 4 6 8 9 12 14 16 17 18 19 20 26 27 28 29 30 and you will get the rhythm for the Simpsons theme)
Saturday
The Monty Hall dilemma actually dates to the 30s, and not to Monty Hall himself. Monty Hall never gave contestants the opportunity to swap doors.
Sunday
Annabel Chong was from Singapore… something they don’t seem to advertise much.
If at a ball you wish to look cute,
You should go in a smart dinner suit,
Unless you’re a girl,
Then give a dress a whirl,
And people will think you’re a beaut.
Thursday
Harald Bohr was the first mathematician to win an Olympic medal (and possibly the only one so far).
Friday
I learnt that Ada Lovelace was a drinker, a gambler and a flirt.
Saturday
I learnt that hair straighteners can be used to get rid of creases in silk.
Sunday
The capacity of the county ground at the moment is 6500
Twinkle twinkle little Alcor,
How i wonder what you’re for,
Up above the sky so faint,
Mizar’s rider ever so quaint,
Twinkle twinkle little Alcor,
My favourite star that I adore.
Monday
“Ich drücke Dir die Daumen” (singular you), “Ich drücke euch die Daumen” (plural you) is german for an equivalent to “I’ll cross my fingers for you” (but is more to do with thumbs).
Tuesday
I learnt a few ways to fold a pocket square, and I will probably model the 3 stairs method on Saturday.
Wednesday
I now know what causes that smell you can smell during a thunderstorm and sometimes just before a summer storm. Apparantly it is geosmins from the spores of the streptomyces bacteria that live in soil. I personally still love the smell despite now knowing this.
