unveiling-myself

I’ve avoided sharing photos of myself here for obvious reasons (skulking around, trying not to be noticed, mainly). However, since all my attempts to keep out of the public eye (or at least my employer’s American management’s eye) failed so dismally, here’s who’s writing all these disturbed ramblings! All these were taken by my gloriously [...]

the-wonderful-german-medical-system

Warning: This is another personal rant! As you may have read a few days ago here, I’m having some trouble with my employer with regard to scheduling my operation. Whilst there are some alternatives opening up which may mean I don’t have to wait until November/December 2010, it’s still far from sure and the chance [...]

guiding-a-potentially-lgbtt-child

I love the blog written by Sarah Hoffman about her son Sam, who’s a ‘pink boy’. It must be terribly difficult to bring up a child who is different from their classmates. Sam is a normal boy who likes some things that boys aren’t ‘meant’ to like and instead of telling him how a boy [...]

I’m afraid that, once again, my blog has been found by colleagues at my work (three today from different sites on two continents!) With the way that certain members of my company view people such as me, I just can’t risk running this blog any more, so I am taking it down. This saddens me [...]

I see two sides to the gay marriage issue. There’s the religious aspect and there’s the secular aspect about being recognised as a couple in the same way as a heterosexual couple would be and getting the same rights. I honestly don’t see why the secular side of the marriage should be a concern to [...]

I was recently talking about Berndard Madoff and how he is being treated. It’s shameful that someone who has destroyed people’s lives (some of whom have even committed suicide) lives in luxury in his apartment whilst awaiting trial. Anyone else would feel the full weight of the penal system, a poor person would feel the [...]

As I’ve mentioned before, I am a huge fan of Eartha Kitt. With music that is both sensual and sometimes laugh-out-loud funny, a voice that brings to mind the smoothest caramel and lyrics that are wonderfully intelligent and often multi-lingual, she has been a role model of mine for decades. Sadly, she died yesterday after [...]
