This was one of those silly thoughts that came one day when hearing the Hamlet quote. The lines said by the characters should have the same flow as the original. There was going to be more to this, but so far I haven’t got around to adding more, maybe I will be inspired and continue one day.

Some things just don’t fit in any other section. If that is the case they make their way here. On the original version of this website this section was called ‘After Thoughts’ but after thinking I had lost most of this site and when finding it again (it was down the back of the sofa) I decided to update many of the articles and merge in one of the other sections. It was then the second version of ‘After Thoughts’, thus ‘Second Thoughts’. I am way beyond the second version of this section, but the name has stuck. This section … Read on

Once upon a time, long, long ago in a land far, far away, nothing was happening. Life was as boring as could be. Nothing out of the ordinary ever happened. Everyone was reasonably happy. Everyone had enough money to get by. No one was too rich or too poor, had too much or too little to eat. Everyone had just enough work to keep them going and the homework from school was little enough for the children not to complain. All in all everything was pretty dull. But then no one complained about this, no one ever gave it a … Read on

Time travel is an easy and natural process. It is something we do every moment of our lives and for the remaining of our existence afterwards too. Time moves constantly forwards and we move along with it. To time we are always standing still, just in different positions. Before we look at how we may be able to time travel through time we will look at our world as made up of four planes. The first three planes are X, Y and Z. The fourth plane is time. Understanding the first three is simple. X, the directional plane of east-west. … Read on
