The Leaf Blower Man Cometh!

Shôn Ellerton, September 5, 2023 Finding peace and quiet in a suburban neighbourhood with barking dogs and rampant leaf blowing men is not always easy. The quest to find peace and serenity in an urban neighbourhood is one of the most challenging ones I have come to learn. And this…

Silicon Valley is a Hellhole, Unless You’re Gilded

Shôn Ellerton, September 3, 2023 I wonder how many people are genuinely happy living in such places like Silicon Valley? Just southwest of San Jose, lies one of the most expensive areas in California, if not the whole of the United States. Situated at the southern end of Silicon Valley…

My Fascination with Decaying Seaside Resorts

Shôn Ellerton, August 23, 2023 Strange how those seaside resorts battered by the elements throughout the years share that odd sense of being in a time warp. That salty sea air mixed with the smell of creosote on wooden piers and the frameworks of ancient rickety roller coasters. That raucous…

Losing My Best Friend to God

Shôn Ellerton, August 9, 2023 My upsetting experience of losing one of my best friends when he ‘found’ God in the most extreme of ways. Have you ever come across an old friend only to find out that he or she ‘found’ God? Well, I can tell you, I certainly…

Never Ever Think of Using AI To Conjure Up A Loved One

Shôn Ellerton, July 19, 2023 The darkest and most nefarious use of AI is the potential to converse with someone who passed away. Artificial intelligence. I’ve written about it before stating that true artificial intelligence is being fearful of one’s death. That was way back in 2016. However, in the…

Why All Professionals Need Business Cards

Shôn Ellerton, July 18, 2023 Ditch the clumsy ceremony of exchanging contact details with a smartphone and use a business card instead. A long time ago, as a kid, I remember frequenting a local steakhouse nearby to where we lived in Colorado Springs. It was called the Trail Dust Steakhouse…

The Death of Affirmative Action Looms Near

Shôn Ellerton, July 7, 2023 We are one step closer in eradicating the baneful existence of unfair, racist, and unconstitutional practice of affirmative action or positive discrimination. “Distinctions between citizens solely because of their ancestry are by their very nature odious to a free people whose institutions are founded upon…

Break Out of the Mould and Vote for a New Party

Shôn Ellerton, June 27, 2023 Stop Making the Excuse That It’s Too Risky to Vote for a new party! I’m sick to death of hearing some of these most lame of excuses when I pop the question whether to vote for a new party to replace either the Democrats or…

Without the Power of Debate, Mankind Will Suffer

Shôn Ellerton, June 23, 2023 We must be able to debate on important issues, including those which are sensitive or taboo, without fear of reprisal. The art and power of debate. It is the foundation stone of civilised man yearning to live in a free and democratic society. Without debate…

You Must Say YES to The Voice. Or Else!

Shôn Ellerton, June 16, 2023 You’re obviously a racist, a bigot, and a white supremacist if you don’t support The Voice. Australia’s not a half bad country to be in but it would certainly become a better place if we could rid ourselves of the headless idiotic politicians who are…
