GOOD FRIDAY 02/04/2010 08:30(BST)

THIS DAY IN WW2 (2.4.40)
Luftwaffe aircraft raid the British naval base at Scapa Flow. On the return flight, the planes attack lighthouses at Duncansby Head and Stroma Island.
In Berlin, the date for the invasions of Denmark and Norway is set for April 9th. The operation is called Weserubung.

TODAY IN MY LIFE
After a disturbing 12 hours where first I lost my patience then had a disturbing dream, I am making most of a day off to chill, contemplate and re-orient. Oh and watch the odd DVD.

TODAY'S THOUGHT
Time and space are punctuation devices that allow experience to become great drama.

TODAY'S QUESTION FOR YOU
Don't you ever get sick of being sick of it?

TODAY'S ONELINER:
All those who believe in psychokinesis raise my hand. : D

TRIVIA
A gas flame has a dark blue outer core and a lighter sky blue inner core. This core is actually unignited gas forced upwards into a cone by the pressure behind it.

Easter Sunday falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox, which is why the date varies so widely.

Being chloroformed like on the movies would be in reality highly unpleasant and often lethal. chloroform causes burns on contact with skin, so you'd wake up (if you survived) with a burned face. If the pad was kept over your face too long after you lost consciousness (a minute or less) you would die of a lethal overdose. Whilst unconscious, if your stomach was not empty you are highly likely to vomit and then inhale the vomit, killing you within minutes with no chance of saving you. If you survived all this and regained consciousness you would suffer extreme nausea and vomiting over the next 24 hours.

TODAY'S AFFIRMATION
I will take every opportunity afforded by each new moment to learn something new.
