Happy New Year all - yes I can be nice and highly critical at the same time it seems. The majority of people who've stayed in touch have remarked that 2010 was an odd year at the best of times. Bring on 2011, sure it's the last year we've left if you believe the 2012 hypothesis.
Anyway, I thought I'd bring you all some festive cheer with this amazing story of how I single-handedly brought rationality to the world:
I got asked if aliens were attacking last night. Anyone notice those chinese lanterns floating around well they were the culprits. In fairness, rationality should play a key role in deciding whether or not to ask me: Firstly what do I know, it's not like watching Star Trek when you're 13 makes you an expert on aliens? Secondly there are no aliens, at least according to reliable sources, i.e. the government, and since when have they lied to us? Thirdly, why would aliens come to Dublin: we're broke and have nothing going for us... Unless they're planning to invade because as I rightly pointed out, much to the horror of the caller, we probably wouldn't last very long against the invading hoards. True story.
grr
