  • Purgatory Pt. 2

    I’m back at my least favourite place, the DMV. Sorry to disappoint one particular reader (you know who you are), but I have neither lost my licence nor been in a roadside accident. Au contraire, I’m here to pick up my full licence. Suck it, Ted. It’s a surreal experience, and while it got off…

  • Eric Schmidt

    My friend Jason and I went to see Eric Schmidt, the former CEO and Chairman of Google, speak today at the Denver AI Summit. He was really, really impressive. What made him stand out, you may ask? For me, it was his lucidity and his comfort on stage. We have all seen someone perform poorly…

  • Usher

    The countdown to baby continues, and we’re making the most of our time together as DINKs. Last week it was Fred Again. This week, it was RnB superstar, Usher. Next week will most likely be watching Ratatouille at home on the couch. Usher is awesome. He has a great catalogue of songs, and despite being…

  • Defanged Eagles

    Last night I caught up with some friends to watch the second half of the Philadelphia Eagles play Atlanta. The bar we went to was known as an “Eagles” bar, and for my non-American readers, they carry quite a reputation. Think of Collingwood, or Rangers. They’re loud, passionate, and don’t take kindly to being beaten….

  • Floor-drobe

    It’s a task that has been burning a hole in me for some time, the floor-drobe, aka a floor based wardrobe, but no more. Biting the bullet, I decided to redo the entire thing, storing some clothes, throwing out others, and making sure the whole place was built for purpose. It wasn’t fun, it took…

  • Oasis

    As you probably know, the Gallagher brothers are reforming the hit band Oasis after over a decade on hold. Unsurprisingly, their tickets are selling like hot cakes. And why wouldn’t they? They’re in a perfect space where their music was very, very popular with people who are now in their 30s and 40s. The type…

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.
