Whistling, A Skill or Just Annoying
by admin on Apr.11, 2009, under Could do With Less of, Makes Me Happy
Wikipedia defines whistling as:
“the production of sound by means of expelling, and sometimes inhaling, a stream of air through the mouth. The air is moderated by the tongue, lips, teeth, or fingers to create turbulence, and the mouth acts as a resonant chamber to enhance the resulting sound”
When a tune is whistled in harmony to the sound of a beat or the whistler is just making melodies, the sound being produced can be quite joy to hear. The point at where it all goes wrong is where tone deaf people try to carry a note along to their favourite tune.
The reason why I have brought this up today is because I was at the gym and there is always someone whistling along to the tune which is playing over the background. You know how your voice sounds different when its played back to you, well I think the same must rules apply for whistling.
This post is not to just moan about people who can’t whistle, here is an example of air resonanating passing though a sculpture.

I have spent the best part of 1 hour trying to figure out how to get the permalinks to show ‘Day and name’ without the site giving me 404 errors. After some quick Googling I found a great page which gave me the exact rules to use in my .htaccess file for wordpress permalinks Once I used the rules, it worked first time.

Waking up early is not so good

The worst thing in the world after having a night out on the beer’s is waking up before 7.

I thought turning off my alarm clock would safe guard me against such things, I wasn’t event that drunk because I was able to sort out a potential canonical issue with my blog.
So I’m laying back in bed thinking I should really get up and quench my thirst.
