A comedian told a joke in a forest but there was no one there to hear it. So was it funny? Humour is something we all have but when was the last time you stopped and thought about what's funny and why it's funny? Scottish novelist Jim Murdoch takes a step back and looks at his own use of humour in his first novel and takes a moment to analyse the famous light bulb joke.

VICTORVILLE | March 30, 2011On Tuesday about 85 miles northeast of Los Angeles in Victorville, California at or near Westway Lane and Primavera Way at approximately 4 p.m., a 12-year old boy was arrested on the suspicion of stabbing a 13-year old boy with nonetheless a steak knife and later booked in the Apple Valley Juvenile Hall for investigation of assault with a weapon, terrorist threats and possession of a deadly weapon according to San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department. When officers arrived at the scene, the 12-year old had a steak knife and a hand-held blade in the shape of a star. The 13-year old victim who sustained minor injuries, or basically, minor lacerations, had his wounds treated at the scene by paramedics. Names of the boys cannot be released as they are minors, reports KTLA. Interestingly enough, the Los Angeles Times has it that the 13-year old stabbed the 12-year old, in what is more than likely a typographical error.Upon questioning by deputies, not only did it become clear that boys will be boys, it was discovered that as two boys, the stabbing incident was the escalation of an argument over a mutual romantic interest - a girl. The argument escalated into threats and escalated yet again with physical violence when the 12-year old allegedly stabbed the 13-year old with the steak knife.Regardless of which boy stabbed the other, the fact of the matter is, two minor boys below the age of 18 were in the possession of what are considered deadly weapons and in an effort to resolve a dispute, they chose to use tools available to them in a fight for the femme. This never should have been an option. The arrested teen should be given a psychiatric evaluation as should his parents followed by an in depth look into his home life and the relationships he maintains with his parents to get an idea as to how and why this type of incident could occur. Is this the type of dispute resolution that children are learning today....

From Mark Twain to everyone's favorite George R.R. Martin, here is what some of the most famous writers used to produce their works!

People who don't write for living think it's easy to be an author. All you need to do is have an idea and find the time to write the piece you've envisioned. However, real writers know better: ideas can be torturing and they have to spend loads of time to research, think, write, and edit to perfection. Even a short article can consume days of a perfectionist's life.

There are two important aspects of contemporary writing tools: accessibility and portability. You don't have to try hard to memorize a sudden idea you get while walking in the park; all you need is a tool that lets you catch it with no delays.

It doesn't matter whether you are a professional writer who is working on the next big novel or a student struggling to complete a paper - no one is immune to distractions. You try to do your best and promise to stay focused at least for an hour, but can't help yourself to take a peek at your inbox even though you're not expecting important emails.

"Each writer has personal style and preferences, so it is difficult to make a generalization and pick universally-efficient tools for such an individual practice."

"Have you ever thought about the stereotype of "tortured artist?" The typical traits for creative minds range from self-hatred to complete narcissism. No matter how many generalizations we try to make, one thing is certain: people with great minds are often described as "odd"."

"Aspiring and established writers think of great ideas at strangest times. How many times have you thought of an amazing concept that evaporated away because you didn't find the time to write it down?"

"After hours and days spent in research, thinking, organizing, and writing, you are proud with the creative content you came up with. The last thing you would like to think about is the editing stage, which requires diligent work and more time spent in front of the computer. Nevertheless, you can never publish a draft version."

If you hate ebooks, that loathing might attach to their dim screens, their wonky typography, their weird pagination, their unnerving ephemerality, or the prison house of a proprietary ecosystem. If you love ebooks, it might be because they are portable, and legible enough, and capable of delivering streams of words, fiction and nonfiction, into your eyes and brain with relative ease.

A dissertation is the most important piece of academic writing you will have done on your entire course. Students often struggle while writing dissertation papers. This usually happens when you cannot think of a good enough thesis or enough content to back up your dissertation. A dissertation needs both an in-depth analysis of existing data, knowledge, and scientific research. This requires students to devote up to 3 months to conduct proper research, to write, and to proofread. Dissertation writing requires a lot of research, knowledge about how to do relevant research, how to put that research in the correct order? These things take a lot of time, which students often don't have. Some of them are managing their jobs along with studies, then they will think about "dissertation buy online." Don't worry; you are in the right place. My Premium Essay is the best place to buy a dissertation paper online. A dissertation will show that the writer knows her subject, the key facts, and different points of view in it - but it also advances a point of view resulting from original research. Remember that 'original' does not mean 'something that's never been done before' but rather 'something that you do for yourself.'

The most extraordinary thing to my mind, of all the strange and wonderful things that happened upon that Friday, was the dovetailing of the commonplace habits of our social order with the first beginnings of the series of events that was to topple that social order headlong

How We Got Started Like most good stories, Dallas Food Nerd started around a table of wonderful food. On Valentine's weekend in 2011, two social mediaites (Elysa and Rory) were invited to go on a food tour of five fabulous Dallas dining spots, hosted by a major car brand and local restaurants. The couple spent the day restaurant hopping with several other food bloggers, indulging in chocolates and souffles. credentials on their virtual resumes, they felt like a food blog was definitely in order. What better way to share their love of food and drinks with others on social media? In that sugar coma filled afternoon, they purchased the Dallas Food Nerd website domain, created a logo and began promoting the new brand among their friends and the local food blogger community. Sharing Our Passion For Food With Others While Elysa and Rory founded the blog back in 2011, they quickly grew the group by adding a few friends and acquaintances who also shared a passion of food-related storytelling. You might even know someone like this yourself… those people whose cameras "eat first"! Our group of writers is now about 20 people, mostly living in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas. (We'll share more on the expansion later.) As a community of people who share a love for food and storytelling, we review new restaurants and menus, test out kitchen gadgets, write product reviews. We tell our stories by writing blog posts, Tweets, Facebook posts, Instagram posts/stories, and lately, Instagram Reels, too.
