black caps win

historic day yesterday when the New Zealand black caps vanquished the australian cricketers at hobart in tasmania.
it doesn't happen very often but the young team we have at the moment looks like it is capable and more than handy.
come on guys.
not much else happening at the moment.
was going to go to town but the weather said no but then it turned out alright.
you just cant win them all.
my keyboard went on the blink in the weekend so I pulled it apart????????
klutz no 1 and shook all the crap out of it and put it back together again and hey presto it went!
shiver me timbers.
Reading marcus aurelius.
great stuff.
of course I had to read the cambridge companion to philosophy where some bloody knowall philosopher pointed out the internal inconsistencies in the stoic philosophy but there is a LIMIT to everything and then poof.
so what.
its amazing how much of the christian ethic was adopted by the church fathers still under the aegis of the empire and how it lives.
when you have been a wildman it is nice to come back down on the ground and try and be not only good but honest decent and fair and do the right thing.
even when you dont want to!
