The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

reading:

In his first will, of 1877, (before he had accumulated his wealth), Rhodes wanted to create a secret society that would bring the whole world under British rule. The exact wording of the will is:

To and for the establishment, promotion and development of a Secret Society, the true aim and object whereof shall be for the extension of British rule throughout the world, the perfecting of a system of emigration from the United Kingdom, and of colonisation by British subjects of all lands where the means of livelihood are attainable by energy, labour and enterprise, and especially the occupation by British settlers of the entire Continent of Africa, the Holy Land, the Valley of the Euphrates, the Islands of Cyprus and Candia, the whole of South America, the Islands of the Pacific not heretofore possessed by Great Britain, the whole of the Malay Archipelago, the seaboard of China and Japan, the ultimate recovery of the United States of America as an integral part of the British Empire, the inauguration of a system of Colonial representation in the Imperial Parliament which may tend to weld together the disjointed members of the Empire and, finally, the foundation of so great a Power as to render wars impossible, and promote the best interests of humanity.


Cecil Rhodes (whom Rhodesia took it's name from), what a legend.

Changed the oil in my car this evening (first time doing it myself), and was going to change the filter but the son of a bitch is so far back in the wheel well that it's impossible to get any leverage to unscrew it, and I didn't have much time to try before it got dark. Next time I try, I'll take the tire off first.

Now awaiting a plate of glorious spaghetti to emerge from the steamy depths of my pasta cooker. O, the hunger...
