Open invitation to join GBE 2 Blog On - FB Blogging Group






Open invitation to join GBE 2 Blog On. - FB blogging group



Guest post: Open invitation to join GBE 2 Blog on. Facebook blogging group:

NEW MEMBERS, PLEASE START HERE :O)

First of all, welcome!

Blogging GBE style is simple. Every Sunday evening, I’ll post the week’s (VERY general) topic on the GBE page. You can then interpret the topic any way you want and blog about it in any way you see fit. Once you’ve posted to wherever you normally blog, drop the url to your post as a comment into the weekly topic thread so that other members can read/comment. Blogs should be posted by the end of the following Saturday night.

NOTE: Please leave only the url for your week’s post on the weekly topic posting so that the thread remains free of extra stuff, making it easy for everyone to work their way down the list without having to sort through anything extra. Everyone is welcome to post anything they’d like on the GBE page, just not on that one weekly post.

Optional: If you’d like, you can also add the url to your post to the linky tool on my weekly topic announcement blog (I announce the weekly topics on my blog, too, so that non-facebookers can participate) right here: http://www.word-nerd-speaks.com/

For those of you who use Twitter, the hashtag for the group's posts is #GBE2, and we can increase readership if we all tweet early and tweet often. ;O)

One thing: This is for fun, and it should NEVER feel like work. So if you join in, feel free to skip a topic (or 10) and read/comment as much or as little as you want. NO PRESSURE.

That’s it!

Happy blogging!

The buffalo theory of beer...










The buffalo theory of beer...









The "Buffalo Theory" of Beer...



A herd of buffalo can move only as fast as the slowest buffalo. When the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first.



This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.



In much the same way the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, we all know, kills brain cells, but naturally it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first.



In this way regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine.



That's why you always feel smarter.

Kiwi firefighters leave for Victoria in Aussie...


The first contingent of 42 Kiwi firefighters leave today(NZ time) for Victoria in Australia to rest those Australians still fighting fires there. Others will be sent later when coordinators decide just where they should be sent to.

Over a million dollars in aid to Victorians has been raised already, including a half million NZ Government contribution. The NZ Red Cross has been responsible for organising public contributions through a number of local banks. State bank, Kiwibank, has also started an account for fundraising through its nationwide branches also.

The spirit of Anzac is still alive and it is fantastic. Aussies are not just our neighbours but cousins and in many cases close family members to New Zealand families here.
