I Got Tagged Along With Desmond Tutu
Firstly,
[Dear Yog and other readers,
I was on the far side of the universe for a while. I was testing out the Earth destruction techniques kindly suggested on a site that you linked to: http://qntm.org/destroy. I tried some of those experiments on a small planet using my cosmic cab's universal fission emulator. But to no avail. I did have a lot of fun shooting at orange three-eyed fury wombat-like creatures on the planet called Quantumino B.A.I. in a solar system very much like ours. Besides having fun torturing the orange thingies with a meteorite megaslingshot until they squealed with horror and turned auburn, I did succeed in destroying their sustainable environment using simple deforestation techniques learnt on Earth and releasing a megacan of compressed Ryanair jet emissions in their atmosphere. But, came hell and no more water, I could not move or fissure their planet out of orbit or existence. I must say it did feel a lot like having an Xbox though. Then I got bored and returned home to write an article in Afrikaans for Wikipedia about Valencia, Spain and read a compilation of novellas written by Samuel Beckett. I will try some more experiments on other planets as soon as I figure out what that bloody e=mc square thing means and change the tyres of my cosmic cab.]
Secondly,
In the meantime, I got tagged along with Desmond Tutu.
Four jobs I've had:
Four movies I can watch over and over:
Four places I've lived:
Four TV shows I love:
Four highly regarded and recommended TV shows I haven't seen:
Four of my favourite dishes:
Four sites I visit daily:
Four places I've been on holiday:
Four albums I can't live without:
Four places I'd rather be right now:
Four other people I’m tagging:
