Pronouns: Reflections on their significance

03/17/2026 by Roy Sutton

There’s a modern phenomenon where we are constantly being asked for our pronouns.

Personally, I find it strange, if only because how are we meant to remember them all? And really, it’s all just virtue signalling.

In life, we take our cue from what we see, and naturally, we try to be polite.

So, the pronoun question is surely redundant?

Here’s my take on it in a poem.

Unrequited Love: When he doesn’t notice you

03/16/2026 by Roy Sutton

Today, I am exploring the idea of unrequited love, and I’ve written an original poem for you, dear reader.

Now, many a girl has experienced the dilemma of being sweet on a boy who simply doesn’t pick up on the signals.

I’m sure many a boy has had a similar experience with a girl for whom he’s fallen.

Unrequited love is just a part of life as we know it.

Well, today, I’ve tried to consider it from the girl’s perspective, and it is reflected in the poem.

Take a look and see what you think.

Poem about money to inspire you

03/16/2026 by Roy Sutton

Today I am exploring the concept of money, and I’ve written an original poem about money.

Now, do you want to know the secret to happiness, dear reader? Do you want to know the key to success and the ticket to the good life?

Well, it’s simple – MONEY!

That’s right, I said it. Money makes the world go round, and you know it!

Now, I know what you’re probably thinking. “But Roy, money is a touchy subject. It’s not something we talk about in polite company.”

Well, maybe.

Nevertheless, I’ve written this poem about money that will get you thinking about its significance, and it might even get you to re-evaluate your relationship with those greenbacks.

This is a poem about our need for money and why we can’t live without it.

So, whether you’re a banker, a broker, a cashier, or just someone who likes to stuff their pockets with dollar bills, this poem is just for you.

Take a few moments and read this poem about money and see what you think.

It might just change the way you think about that paper in your wallet or the numbers in your bank account. And who knows – it might just make you rich!

DISCLAIMER: Reading this poem does not guarantee wealth or financial success. But it’s still worth a shot, right?

A poem about faith to get you thinking

03/16/2026 by Roy Sutton

Today, dear reader, I offer you an original poem about faith. Faith is often dismissed as being no longer relevant. I think that’s a mistake.

Consider for a moment the profound role of religious faith in our lives.

I’m sure you know that life is complex, and it’s filled with challenges and the emotional strain of dealing with other people.

Faith is like a lighthouse in the storm. It guides us and helps us avoid crashing onto the rocks. It’s a beacon of light that shines through the darkest nights, reminding us that even amid turmoil, there is a way forward.

Faith gives us hope and comfort, even in our darkest hours when everything seems bleak. It’s the assurance that no matter how tough today might be, there’s a purpose, a plan, and brighter days ahead.

In times of trial, faith is an asset that can make all the difference.

Now there are many religious faiths, and I think they all serve the same purpose. Put simply, they help us cope with life. Whichever one you believe is entirely up to you. As long as it helps you.

Without further ado, here’s today’s original poem about faith.

30 sharp and funny quotes by George Carlin

03/16/2026 by Roy Sutton

Today I thought it would be a good idea to look back at some funny quotes by George Carlin.

The late George Carlin was an American stand-up comedian, actor, philosopher, author, and social critic. He’s probably best known for his sardonic, irreverent wit and his reflections on politics, the English language, psychology, religion, and various other taboo subjects.

Sadly, George Carlin died on June 28, 2008, in Santa Monica, CA. He was 71 years old.

I loved his irreverent wit, and I thought he was a funny man.

If you’re unfamiliar with his work, then it’s worth checking out some of the many videos of his performances that you’ll find on YouTube.

Here are 30 funny quotes by George Carlin that I’m confident will get you thinking about life, the universe, and everything.

Enjoy them all.

And please, feel free to pass them on.

Funny quotes by George Carlin

I think I am, therefore, I am … I think.

It’s never just a game when you’re winning.

What if there were no hypothetical questions?

Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity.

If you try to fail and succeed, which have you done?

Men are from Earth; women are from Earth. Deal with it.

Just when I discovered the meaning of life, they changed it.

When you step on the brakes, your life is in your foot’s hands.

One can never know for sure what a deserted area can look like.

The reason I talk to myself is that I’m the only one whose answers I accept.

A house is just a place to keep your stuff while you go out and get more stuff.

‘Bipartisan’ usually means that a larger-than-usual deception is being carried out.

Some people have no idea what they’re doing, and a lot of them are really good at it.

Just because you got the monkey off your back doesn’t mean the circus has left town.

I have as much authority as the Pope. I just don’t have as many people who believe it.

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

I think it’s the duty of the comedian to find out where the line is drawn and cross it deliberately.

Isn’t making a smoking section in a restaurant like making a peeing section in a swimming pool?

Most people work just hard enough not to get fired and get paid just enough money not to quit.

Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?

If the Black Box flight recorder is never damaged during a plane crash, why isn’t the whole airplane made out of that stuff?

People who say they don’t care what people think are usually desperate to have people think they don’t care what people think.

I wanna live. I don’t wanna die. That’s the whole meaning of life: Not dying! I figured that out by myself in the third grade.

If it’s true that our species is alone in the universe, then I’d have to say that the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, ‘Where’s the self-help section?’ She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Some national parks have long waiting lists for camping reservations. When you have to wait a year to sleep next to a tree, something is wrong.

Here’s all you have to know about men and women: women are crazy, and men are stupid. And the main reason women are crazy is that men are stupid.

When I ask how old your toddler is, I don’t need to hear ’27 months.’ ‘He’s 2’ will do just fine. He’s not a cheese. And I didn’t really care in the first place.

Some people see things that are and ask, ‘Why?’ Some people dream of things that never were and ask, ‘Why not?’ Some people have to go to work and don’t have time for all that.

Religion has convinced people that there’s an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a list of ten specific things he doesn’t want you to do. And if you do any of these things, he will send you to a special place of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever and suffer and burn and scream until the end of time. But he loves you. He loves you, and he needs money.

Please share this post with your friends:

Should you separate domain registration and web hosting?

03/16/2026 by Roy Sutton

Introduction:

Every blog or website needs both a domain name and web hosting, among other things. A question frequently asked is, should you separate domain registration and web hosting?

In fact, many hosting companies will often offer a ‘free’ domain name as an integral part of the web hosting package they offer.

Obviously, they want it to appear cost-effective because they want your business. However, that doesn’t mean it’s a good idea.

Should you separate domain registration and web hosting

The argument for separation:

When you’re setting up a new blog or website, it’s easy to lose sight of what might happen in the future.

You might choose a web host, only to find that it isn’t good enough to meet your needs for whatever reason. There might be a speed issue, it might be poor technical support, or it might be that the host’s website is not user-friendly. Then again, you might just find better value for money elsewhere.

Whatever the reason, it doesn’t matter. One thing you can be sure of is that at some point, you will choose to move a website from one host to another because bloggers always do. And if you do, the last thing you want is any potential for complications.

7 reasons why separation matters:

1. Separate Services:

It is a fact that domain registration and web hosting are two separate services. So, it makes sense to keep them separate.

2. Not all hosts offer both services:

While most of the big names do offer both services, this is not universally true. Some web hosting services may not offer the option to register a domain name directly through them.

If this is the case, then you will need to register your domain separately to use it with this type of web host.

3. Freedom of Movement:

A free domain name included with a hosting plan means you’ll have to keep hosting your website with them to keep that domain name.

By registering your domain separately, you’ll have more flexibility in terms of where you host your website.

4. Ease of Migrating:

If you have your domain registration and web hosting with different companies, you can switch hosts easily when necessary without having to transfer your domain registration too.

5. Hosting Multiple Websites:

Hosting companies like SiteGround, which I use, allow you to set up multiple websites on the same unique account. This can be cost-effective when you have multiple web projects running concurrently.

At some point, you may choose to sell one or more of those websites. In doing so, you’ll need to transfer whatever is being sold to the buyer.

Now, if you’ve been provided with a ‘free’ domain, you may not have the freedom to transfer the domain name from your account. So, if that were associated with a website you’re selling, an unnecessary complication over the domain name could prove to be a deal-breaker.

6. Ability to manage them independently:

If you keep your domain name registration and web hosting service separate, this will allow you to manage them independently.

For example, you will be able to renew your domain registration without having to worry about renewing your hosting plan at the same time. And you can migrate a website from one host to another without worrying about moving the domain name registration at the same time.

7. Greater control over your online presence:

Separating your domain name registration from your web hosting service means you’ll have greater control over both aspects of your online presence.

This is especially important if you’re running a business website, as you will want to ensure that your domain and hosting are both reliable and properly configured, always.

Conclusion:

The underlying message today is that it’s wise to keep your domain name registration and web hosting quite separate to avoid any potential pitfalls, such as domain name loss.

Registering your domain name separately from your web host gives you greater flexibility and more control over your online presence.

If you were to have a falling out with your web host, the last thing you’d want is for them to have any control over the use of your domain name.

If you have control over the domain name registration, you can simply migrate your website to another host if you’re no longer happy with your existing web host.

What do I use?

I have always kept the registration of my domain names separate from my web hosting.

All my domain names are registered through Namecheap. They provide great service and the best prices, in my experience.

For web hosting, I now use Hostinger. I have multiple websites hosted on that platform, and my experience with them overall has been excellent.

How to become a Virtual Assistant

03/15/2026 by Roy Sutton

Wondering how to become a virtual assistant? Well, without further ado, let us explore today’s topic.

Summary:

In this post, I explain the six-step process for how to become a virtual assistant.

These steps are:

Identify your skills and niche.
Address any skills gaps.
Invest in the right equipment.
Set up your business.
Start marketing your services.
Get your first clients.

In more detail, the following is what you need to know:

How to become a Virtual Assistant

The Six-Step Process:

Step 1: Identify your skills and niche

The first step to becoming a virtual assistant is to identify your skills and niche.

What are you good at?

What do you enjoy doing?

Once you know your strengths, you can start to narrow down your niche and target your services to a specific type of client.

For example, if you are a strong writer and editor, you could niche down as a content creation virtual assistant.

Perhaps you’re good at social media. Could you manage someone’s social media for them?

Alternatively, if you are organized and detail-oriented, perhaps you could become a virtual administrative assistant.

Essentially, it’s all about what you have to offer a client or clients and what you could best specialise in.

Step 2: Address any skills gaps

Now, you’re going to offer a professional service to clients. That means you must have all the necessary skills. Some you may have already; some you may need to acquire.

So, once you know your target niche, create two lists. The first list should be an inventory of the skills required. The second list should be an inventory of the skills you possess now.

Compare the two lists and identify any skills gaps.

Then you can start to get the necessary training and skills you will need to offer the best possible service.

There are many online and offline courses available that can teach you the skills you need to be a successful virtual assistant.

Some of the most important skills for virtual assistants include:

Time management
Communication
Customer service
Writing and Editing
Social media marketing
Project management
Basic accounting

Step 3: Invest in the right equipment

To be a successful virtual assistant, you will need to invest in the right equipment.

This will include a computer, a reliable internet connection, a headset, and a printer.

It’s worth getting top-quality equipment if you can afford it.

You may also want to invest in some software that can help you with your work and productivity, such as a project management tool, a customer relationship management (CRM) system, and a time-tracking tool.

Step 4: Set up your business

Once you have the necessary skills and equipment, you can formally set up your business.

This will include choosing a business name, registering your company, and setting up your finances, including business bank accounts.

You will also need to create a website to showcase your skills and experience.

The website should include some positive testimonials from people you’ve worked with, if that’s possible.

Step 5: Start marketing your services

You cannot be the solution to someone’s problem if they don’t know you exist.

So, once your business is up and running, you must start to market your services. There are many ways to do this, such as online job boards, social media, networking, and cold emailing.

When you are marketing your services, be sure to highlight your unique skills and experience.

You should also be clear about your rates and your availability.

Step 6: Get your first clients

Once you start marketing your services, you will start to get leads from potential clients.

It is important to qualify these leads carefully to make sure that they are a good fit for your business.

Once you have qualified a lead, you can set up a call to discuss their needs and how you can help them.

Be prepared to answer their questions and explain your services in detail.

If you make a good impression on the potential client, they may hire you for a project.

Once you have completed your first project, be sure to ask the client for a testimonial. This will help you attract more clients in the future.

Here are some additional tips for getting your first clients:

Network with other virtual assistants. They may be able to refer you to clients or give you advice on how to find work.
Offer free consultations. This is a great way to show potential clients what you can do and how you can help them.
Write guest blog posts or articles for industry websites. This will help you establish yourself as an expert and attract potential clients.
Get involved in social media. Join online communities for virtual assistants and participate in discussions. This is a great way to connect with potential clients and build relationships.

Conclusion:

Becoming a virtual assistant can be a great way to make a living from home.

By following these tips above, you can increase your chances of success.

I hope this article helps you. Good luck.

25 inspirational quotes about success to motivate you

03/14/2026 by Roy Sutton

If you’re looking for inspirational quotes about success, you should consider what success means to you. Your definition of success will not necessarily be the same as someone else’s.

Success for you might be nothing more than being happy and content.

That’s admirable, of course. There’s nothing wrong with having that as your goal. However, someone else might be looking for a lot more from life.

For them, success might be an Olympic gold medal or winning the Super Bowl.

So, before you pursue success, you would do well to reflect on what it means to you and why you want it.

Knowing your ‘why?‘ is half the battle when it comes to achieving success.

Success is desired by many but achieved by only a few.

To be successful, you have to want it so bad that it hurts.

That’s why it’s important to know your why.

If you know your ‘why?’ you will be able to bear any ‘how?’.

You must be focused on your goals; you must be disciplined; you must be determined; you must be prepared to make sacrifices; you must be prepared to work very, very hard; and you must possess self-belief too.

Remember, nothing worth having ever comes easy.

If you want success, you must be prepared to pay the price in blood, sweat, and tears. And that price must always be paid first.

You’ll get nothing before you’ve paid the price.

You’ll find that even people who are an ‘overnight success’ have spent years honing their skills before favourable circumstances provided them with an opportunity to shine like a star.

Nothing happens overnight. You’ve got to work at it and keep working at it.

And remember this too: you’ll experience failure from time to time, and you’ll question whether you’re good enough over and over again.

The temptation to quit will be overwhelming at times. You’ll be constantly tempted to settle for an easier life. Don’t!

Success can be achieved if you stick to it and keep going. Focus on the prize.

In the words of the late, great Muhammad Ali, I hated every minute of training, but I said, ‘Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.’

Success can be yours if you work hard and hang on until you achieve whatever it is that you want to achieve. Just go for it!

And remember also, it’s better to try and fail than never have tried at all. At least you won’t spend the rest of your life wondering what might have been.

Here are 25 interesting and inspirational quotes about success.

Inspirational Quotes About Success

Success is dependent on effort. ~Sophocles

Eighty per cent of success is showing up. ~Woody Allen

Action is the foundational key to all success. ~Pablo Picasso

Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value. ~Albert Einstein

Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out. ~Robert Collier

If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself. ~Henry Ford

Find something you’re passionate about and keep tremendously interested in it. ~Julia Child

Man needs his difficulties because they are necessary to enjoy success. ~APJ Abdul Kalam

Successful people maintain a positive focus in life no matter what is going on around them. They stay focused on their past successes rather than their past failures, and on the next action steps, they need to take to get them closer to the fulfilment of their goals rather than all the other distractions that life presents to them. ~Jack Canfield

At the end of the day, you are solely responsible for your success and your failure. And the sooner you realize that you accept that, and integrate that into your work ethic, you will start being successful. As long as you blame others for the reason you aren’t where you want to be, you will always be a failure. ~Erin Cummings

Would you like me to give you a formula for success? It’s quite simple, really: Double your rate of failure. You are thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isn’t at all. You can be discouraged by failure, or you can learn from it, so go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because remember, that’s where you will find success. ~Thomas J. Watson

Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm. ~Winston Churchill

Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such preparation, there is sure to be failure. ~Confucius

Every successful individual knows that his or her achievement depends on a community of people working together. ~Paul Ryan

Always be yourself, express yourself, and have faith in yourself; do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it. ~Bruce Lee

The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will. ~Vince Lombardi

Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers, you cannot be successful or happy. ~Norman Vincent Peale

The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand. ~Vince Lombardi

Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome. ~Booker T. Washington

Commitment is a big part of what I am and what I believe. How committed are you to winning? How committed are you to being a good friend? To being trustworthy? To being successful? How committed are you to being a good father, a good teammate, a good role model? There’s that moment every morning when you look in the mirror: Are you committed, or are you not? ~LeBron James

Success is a lousy teacher. It seduces smart people into thinking they can’t lose. ~Bill Gates

Success is how high you bounce when you hit bottom. ~George S. Patton

Don’t aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally. ~David Frost

Most people give up just when they’re about to achieve success. They quit on the one-yard line. They give up at the last minute of the game one foot from a winning touchdown. ~Ross Perot

3 funny jokes for everyone in need of a laugh

03/11/2026 by Roy Sutton

Here are three very funny jokes for everyone in need of a laugh or two today.

Enjoy them all, and please feel free to share them with your friends.

Funny jokes for everyone:

1. The subtle art of getting even:

Seventeen-year-old Brandon arrived home one day, driving a fabulous Porsche 917K sports car.

Naturally, for his parents, witnessing his arrival, this was a jaw-dropping moment.

“Where the hell did you get that car, Brandon?” asks his father. “Did you steal it?”

“No, Dad,” replies Brandon. “I bought it.”

“Brandon,” says his mother, “a car like that would cost in excess of $10 million. How could you possibly have bought it?”

“Oh, Mom, you’re exaggerating,” says Brandon. “It only cost me fifteen dollars.”

“Fifteen dollars!” exclaims his father. “Who’d be mad enough to sell you a car like that for fifteen dollars?”

“It was Mrs Jones, who lives in that large mansion on my paper route,” replies Brandon. “She saw me on my bike and asked me if I wanted to buy a Porsche for fifteen dollars.”

Well, Brandon’s mother and father felt compelled to visit Mrs Jones.

When Mrs Jones answered the knock on her door, Brandon’s father was quick with his questions: “Why would you sell my son a classic sports car for fifteen dollars? What the hell is going on?”

“It’s very simple, really,” Mrs Jones replied. “This morning I got a phone call from my husband. He told me he’d decided to run off to a new life in Hawaii with his secretary. He said he wasn’t coming back, and he asked me to sell his Porsche and send him the money. So I did.”

2. Senior moment:

Betty, an elderly Florida lady, had been doing her shopping, and upon returning to her car, she found four young men in the act of leaving with her vehicle.

Being the feisty lady that she was, she dropped her shopping to the floor and then grabbed a Smith & Wesson 5906 from her purse and shouted as loud as she could, “Yes, I’m armed; yes, it’s loaded; and yes, I know how to use it! Get out of the car, punks!”

The four young men could see that this wasn’t a lady to be messed with, so they got out of the car and ran like hell.

Feisty as she was, naturally, Betty was still a little shaken by her experience, and the adrenaline was definitely pumping through her veins.

She loaded her shopping bags into the back of the car, and then she got into the driver’s seat. She was so shaken that she couldn’t get her key into the ignition.

Well, she tried and tried, and then she realized why.

It was for the same reason that she was suddenly wondering why there was a football, a Frisbee and two 6-packs of beer on the rear seat.

Suddenly, it dawned on her that her own car was actually located seven spaces farther along the parking line.

“Oh dear!” she exclaimed to herself

So, she transferred her shopping into her own car, and then she drove to the police station to report her mistake.

The sergeant to whom she told the story couldn’t stop laughing.

He pointed to the other end of the counter, where four very pale young men were reporting a car-jacking by a mad, elderly woman described as white, less than five feet tall, with curly white hair, who was armed and dangerous.

No charges were filed.

Moral of the Story: If you’re going to have a senior moment, make it memorable.

3. Medical cover:

Jim was out shopping in his local mall one day.

He’s browsing in a store when suddenly he suffers a serious heart attack.

Naturally, as soon as the clerks saw Jim collapse on the floor, they called 911.

Within minutes, paramedics are on the scene, and Jim is rushed to the nearest hospital, where he undergoes emergency open-heart bypass surgery.

A few hours later, Jim is awakened from his surgery to find himself in the care of nuns at the Catholic hospital.

Sister Philomena, a young nun, is seated next to his bed holding a clipboard loaded with several forms and a pen.

“Sir,” says Sister Philomena. “I know this is a difficult moment for you, but I need to ask you, who is going to pay for your treatment? Do you have health insurance?”

“No mam, I don’t have any health insurance,” Jim responds, almost whispering.

“Well then, do you have any money in the bank?” asks Sister Philomena.

“No mam, I don’t have any money in the bank either,” Jim responds, once again, in an almost inaudible whisper.

Starting to get a little concerned, Sister Philomena asks, “Do you have any relatives who could help you with the payments?“

“Well, I only have a spinster sister, but she’s a nun,” Jim responds.

Sister Philomena is really irritated by this insensitive comment, and she announces loudly, for everyone to hear, “Sir, nuns are not spinsters! Nuns are married to God!”

“Well then, that’s perfect,” says Jim. “You’ll be able to send the bill to my brother-in-law.“
