The meaning of life

Today, I was talking about the meaning of life with my daughter..

Her response was definitely, "GOOP!".

..and how true she is. We start out as goop, we end as goop and we goop about a lot in between.

In fact there is very little that can't be explained by the word goop..

but.. I was unsure if she was interpreting our existence as part of a predestined global goop entity rather than as individual gooplets with free destiny. Does she lean more towards intelligent goop design or a more darwinistic goop approach? I'll have to check with her later.

Very thought provoking little 3 month old Mackenzie! Maybe she can explain it to me when she learns her second word.

Dancing...

Often I bop about with Mackenzie when music is on and she quietens.

Today we were at Woolworths and she was crying...

So here I am at the checkout..


"We are, We are.. the fresh food people..."

Dancing.. Singing.... baby in arms...

What a rocking tune.. The poor checkout girl thought I was nuts and Kendra is still laughing..

One for Ornithologists

Was caught today using one of my lessons from uni. It is about drawing histograms and the following data was used:

score. f
1...... 2
2...... 2
3...... 8
4...... 2
5...... 1

It was quite funny then but not really appropriate for a maths class.
