You know what amazes me? The inability of people in their cars, to move their little finger to push the indicator stalk. How I typed that with no swear words I'll never know

the pale blue dot:
(thankyou Carl)the hubble deep field image:
every point and smudge of light is a galaxy, each one containing billions of stars, this image is nothing more than what you see when you look into a small patch of darkness between the stars.
how does santa do it?
(we are truly tiny and insignificant, it's our ability to understand this, and our humble character to accept it with open minded awe that are equal to the awesomenessitude of those images)

The price of Oil being as low as what it is:
Search for it, dig it out if its there using expensive and intensive methods.
Pump it around the world via ships and pipes.
Get it refined, and then driven around the country, put into holds.
Then sell the stuff on forecourts.
How many people are involved/paid in that process - i find it astonishing that petrol is only 1.20 ltr. Bloody Coca-cola is more than that and that's just some sugar etc.

The view out of my office window. You should see it. Its truly amazing.
Its very very distracting. God knows how I ever get anything doneTo my left I can see Rivi and Winter Hill, in front of me I can see the turbine's on the hills above Bury slowly turning. To my right Blackstone edge and the bleak beauty of Saddleworth. It changes every day. The sky, the colours. It can be utterly breathtaking. The north west of England really is stunning. Its a hell of a creation - whoever you believe 'made' it. And we're such lucky gits to have that as our playground!! I'm off out riding in some of it this afternoon. Check it out at closer quarters
Oh.... and King Sized Mixed Kebabas from the Turkish Delight

the price you pay for a can of coke/monster/red bull is mostly to cover the cost of the advertising needed to persuade you to buy it. the actual cost of a can of (aspirational fizzy drink XXXX) will be about 3p.

After watching my wife birth our wee boy yesterday I'm amazed at the strength that women have
It hardly compares to stubbing your big toe, does it.

i know I've turned into a total and utter bore, but Teddy amazes me. The fact that I built him from pretty much nothing, and am continuing to grow him now, but also the fact that he's an actual person, who will grow up in to an actual adult and do stuff. The fact that he's learning new things every day. I'm in awe, i really am.

mrsconsequence
she checked her presents again last night and asked what was in the boxes....
"its air isnt it?"
"yup, the cats in a sealed box at the bottom but i didnt have a box big enough so i put the air it needed in those other boxes"
"well at least i'm getting a cat"
"its not a cat... you're just getting air"
"noooo its boxes of love isnt it... you love me"
"haha wait until you open up the dead cat"
"no, i know its boxes of love, love doesnt weigh anything"
thing is... when she unwraps empty boxes i'm still going to get a big hug and kiss, she's mental

I think mrsconsequence understands that our reality is the 'dust' left over from the quantum dance.

Made tea for my little brother last night, amazed by his ability to be a pervy little (rhymes with anchor). Amazed by my g/f's ability to still be nice to him despite it.

Sunrises and sunsets - how they can make a crap morning or evening so much better.
Pregnancy - even though I teach kids at school about child development. I still find it really messed up that Mrs Q. can sit there on the evening and tell me that the baby is now awake inside her and moving about.
Possibly too much influence from Alien to make me see this as anything other than spooky.Posted 1 year ago # -
It amazes me how when you consider the size of the universe that some people think they are important.

Another vote for the universe. It is simply impossible to make sense of the scale of it, the way it takes a fraction of a second for radio waves to travel around the earth, yet thousands of years for them to travel between galaxies.
Time. I rambled on a bit on another thread about how if you imagine one year as 1mm, then the earth was formed at one end of a 4500km road. The whole of human civilisation, from the beginnings of agriculture to the present day, fits in the last 10m of that road, with written history in the last 2m.
Evolution.
Not just the big stuff, like apes evolving in to humans, but all the little details too like your fingers and toes getting cold. How many countless millions died, or nearly died, of hypothermia before the human body evolved to reduce blood flow to the extremities by a process of natural selection ?Posted 1 year ago # -
