Aardvarks (Aard = Earth Vark = Pig) to Zorillas (Fox in Spanish)

Many have asked me to give more details as to why my blog is called Aardvarks to Zorillas. The idea was to make it much more interesting that saying A to Z, anything goes. To get to know as to what are the various elements that I am blogging here about  - from Information Security, History, Religion, Technology and Science. They are not scientific treatises, but general journalistic write ups with their grammatical errors ( I leave them there, for the fact that these are made as rambles - Rambles are just a thought process that just comes about over time and they are typed into the blog in one go, no proof reading, no relook into what has been typed, no editing... Rambles as it ought to be.

The idea of the blog is also to just vent my thoughts, the time when I do not find somebody to bore to death. Just to record the thought and it makes for interesting reading after a few months. You would be surprised at the prose that had flowed out of your head, no semantics, but clearly the use and frequency of the words are a function of the thought process, you can elicit the importance of the words, as it clearly shows the level of belligerence you have about the thought and as to whether a news item or something that happened in near time to the blog having influenced the thinking, what are these triggers, quite a few , as I said, it might have been a news item, the tea party mouthing out something, or a meeting that shows the hypocrisy of a country or a group, a technology driver , a new scientific note or me reading some book.

So for those looking to read about the fantastic animals called Aardvarks ,  Both Aardvark and Zorilla are African Animals and I have a few links that should help. As for the Zorilla, it is a  Striped Pole Cat.To make it easier for you I have below the pictures of them from Creative Commons. To be honest, I have never seen a Aardvark or a Zorillas, other than in books.
