  • World famous dunny

    On our way to watch Colorado State Rams take on a rather enfeebled North Colorado U, we popped into a true enigma of the North American highway: a Buc-cees. What’s a Buc-cees. At its most essential, it’s a petrol station. But that’s like calling Lords a patch of grass, or the Mona Lisa decoration. Buc-cees,…

  • Sell out?

    I’m writing this on a Friday night, watching the opening round of the NFL. The Green Bay Packers are taking on the Philadelphia Eagles at their fortress of a homeground, Corinthians Stadium. Wait, that’s a strange name for a Pennsylvanian stadium, isn’t it? On closer inspection, it IS an unusual name, and the game is…

  • Leveling Up

    Note: I received some feedback that yesterday’s post didn’t make much sense. I was distracted while writing it, my apologies. The gist of it was that while I found the Trump/Lex interview dull, the epilogue was quite interesting. Analogically, it was a bland main course followed by a tasty dessert. Today was a useful day…

  • Lex

    I listened to the Donald Trump-Lex Friedman interview today. It reminded me a lot of the Trump-Elon interview, in that it was really kinda dull, which is unusual, as Lex is a terrific interviewer, and Trump, despite what you think of his politics, can be highly entertaining. It just wasn’t really worth listening to, as…

  • Deload

    Last week I had a deload week on my weight training program. It was my first one, and I have to say that they do have a place for most people, regardless of how they exercise. In the past I always thought a deload week was all a load of hogwash and that a winning…

  • Blooded

    Today we were talking about hunting, and it brought up a memory I hadn’t thought about in almost 20 years. I have gone spotlighting in the past when I was a kid, but one of the main hobbies we had as children was going fox hunting with hounds. It was a lot of fun, but…

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.
