Teach Me Something

I was wondering if any of the readers had a particular topic that they’d like me to write about. I would love for someone to ask my opinion on something I do not know about, so that I’ll dig around, learn, and form one.

It can be anything. Would you like me to write a post about the art of making balloon animals? How about rubber boots, or the history of toilet paper? It can be something technical too; if you’re an arts major, I will do my best to analyse any piece you would like.

Go on, help me learn something I have no idea about. You can either tell me via a comment, Facebook, or an email to andrew(at)andrewshouts.com.

    what do you think?

  2. you can dig into the war betwen Iraq and Iran and what was the US role. You will get to understand why both fighting parties in Iran are not pro-US and why the actual Iraq war.

  3. Why don’t you start a personal long term project where you could share your experience with us? Like subscribing to a certain scientific journal for a year and sharing the various things you learned. Or buy a cookbook and try all the recipes in it :P

  4. Well, so far, I’m learning to build my own computer, I think that when the time comes for me to order parts, I’ll do an AndrewShouts Special =)

    I do like the idea of longer-term though.

    I hope to hear some more ideas, as I am starting to work on some that have been submitted both here and on Facebook.

  5. How about digging into something you expressed confusion about, as we shared lunch the other day: pregnancy/childbirth options. Look into humanistic approaches to female reproductive health, from contraception to conception to birth. ; )

  6. I don’t have anything to teach you, but these guys might…

  7. Thanks for the feedback, guys!

    I will write responses on the topics of fish farming, the digitizing of the human brain. Sarah, I have a feeling I’ll be looking more into your lifestyle; I had a conversation very similar to our last, over lunch, with someone I’ve been seeing a lot of lately.

    Luc, that bass cannon article was wicked :)

  8. how about the effects of the pill for the male (in 5 to 10 years) on male mating behaviour? after all, the pill was a huge boost to women when it came out.

    rather curious about the concept, and your insights :)
