Triangle Day
Today, in America, the date is 10/24/26. It lacks much significance, until your realise it is the very last Pythagorean Day we may ever experience. A Pythagorean Day is one where you can take the date numbers and turn them into the theorem. In this instance, 10^2 + 24^2 = 26^2. There are 12 Pythagorean…

WSM
My friend gifted me a Weber Smokey Mountain the other day. It’s a hell of a present. For those unfamiliar with the Weber Smokey Mountain (henceforth WSM), it’s a barrel smoker. Rather than using charcoals to grill meat with direct heat, it’s a capsule that allows you to cook food with indirect heat, better known…

Puzzling
Here is a good riddle: There are 25 runners. Only five can run at any given time. You don’t have a stopwatch, or any other means of timing the runners. Assume they all look relatively similar; you can’t tell if one person is faster just by looking at them. How many races do you need…

Roadster
I don’t have a Tesla. I don’t expect my next car will be a Tesla. The first time I drove a Tesla, I wasn’t super impressed (although it did have a bunch of cool features). I have experienced Full Self-Driving (where the car drives itself at 120kph in traffic), and the CyberTruck, and they were…

Nationals, Day 2
This morning was rough. We had the early game, so a 5am Denver start it was. Shoulder, sore. Knee, janky. Ribs as tender as it gets. Wonderful. At least the weather was much better, and I saw for the first time why people might like to live down here (at least for the last 20%…

Nationals, Day 1
I’m in Saratoga for the US AFL nationals, and just finished day 1. The good news is that we’re through to the semi-finals tomorrow, and thus our tournament continues. The bad news is that after beating the Portland Steelheads (?), we went scoreless against the Maine Coons Cats. They kicked 3-13, so it could have…

Why I started this blog
I don’t really use Social Media anymore; I’m too young for Facebook, too old for SnapChat, too normie for Discord and too boring for Instagram. While this buys me back time and peace of mind, it means that it can sometimes be difficult to share my life with my friends and family outside of phone calls and in-person meetups. As I live overseas, this can be a difficulty.
With this in mind, and inspired my friend Dan Cullum (check out his fantastic site HERE), I have started a daily blog. Not only will I be able to share my ideas, news, and stories to friends and family, but it serves as a time capsule as I move through life. In the future, I look forward to seeing how my views, opinions, and ideas change over time. At the very least, it is an exercise in discipline, and may be of interest to my descendants at some time in the future.
While I imagine most followers of this blog will be friends and family, all are welcome to subscribe. Feel free to email at harry@harrywetherall.com, I reply to every message, and would love to hear from you.
