Interesting Article


A gift or hard graft?
We look at outrageously talented and successful people - the Beatles, Mozart, Rockefeller, Bill Gates - and assume there is such a thing as pure genius. Not necessarily, argues Malcolm Gladwell...


Thanks Jonsi.

Terry Poulin
I often post and share many things.

Many times posts are whatever I am up to or find interesting and amusing. Sense of humour is everything :P. My social presence grew out of keeping a public journal; originally subtitled “Captain’s Log Supplemental”. Thus when I use the label Captain's Log it usually means a personal journal entry.

As years have gone on posts related to music, movies, manga and anime are frequent offenders. Posts are often related to computer things. Android and unix systems such as FreeBSD and Linux regularly come up. Being a programmer fluent in many things, sometimes those creep in as well. In fact if I was stranded on an island I am ore likely to write a program to entertain myself than make an S.O.S. with the rocks. Just Another Computer Geek.

Photos and posts involving my dogs and food related things are also very common here.
