Apologies from Brins

Sorry, everyone, for the significant (to me, at least) lack of updates to the site. This is the last time I'm going to address this issue, since you're all most likely bored of it.

At any rate, I won a talent competition today singing 'Suspicious Minds' by the legendary Elvis Presley. I'd do an impression, but no.

Now I'm sure most of you don't know that I don't read very much. However, for the first time since half a year a go, I've been chugging along a most interesting book by some person called Bill Bryson, 'A Short History of Nearly Everything'. If you study up on Bryson, you'll find him to be an alarmingly unassuming and - quite frankly - a very genuine, average guy. Having lived his life, he suddenly felt left out about not knowing anything about the universe, so he proceeded to know 'nearly' everything about the universe. But then, given his unassuming nature, I'd go the extra mile to say that he does know everything about the universe. Well, everything anyone else knows, anyway.

Not that I'm in much position to verify his claims.

At any rate, I have the utmost of admiration for this man (not to suggest I don't have any admiration for the person that mentioned him here). I'm not much for people that know they know everything; even if they do.

And if you made sense of that last sentence, then you know too much!
