I'm just this guy... y'know? :)
Us Pottermaniacs are waiting with bated breath for July. In July we will see the release of the next in the film series of the books… Order of the Phoenix. The trailers are already looking *good* and I just learned it will be available on the iMax format… i.e. *huge* screen… with the last 20 … More Ooohh… Order of the Phoenix in 3D?
Bored, tired, cold… too much to do and too little motivation 🙂 I think I need a holiday!
Winter demonstrated it has arrived over the past weeks by creating floods that killed a dozen people and caused a billion dollars worth of damage. Luckily for us, most of that happened to the north of Sydney in the areas around Newcastle and above. The worst we’ve had, other than some heavy rain, has been … More Winter arrives
Why was I not informed? Seems people around the world protested about the overuse of oil by the industrialised nations by stripping off and riding their bikes through various cities. They were naked in chilly London… they were naked in foggy Seattle… yet nobody got their kit off in sunny Sydney! How odd. This lady … More Naked bike riding… eh?
In Australia we have a fantastic series of ads running for Hahn beer… but one especially has been coming under fire for being sexist. In fact, Todd Harper of VicHealth is demanding it be taken off the air! Hahn have responded by creating a new access point for their site… and damn funny it is … More Boob Job
Downloaded this new port from Apple to test it out. Sadly it was a bit of a disaster since when it loaded all I got was a screen… some jpg’s… and no text nor ability to enter any… not even a url. I went to the Apple support group and discovered I wasn’t alone. Seems … More Safari for Windows (beta)
Found a nice little 3-bedder with 7 acres just off Whites Ridge Road not far from here. Would mean the wife wouldn’t need to travel so far… it’s nearer the kids school… *but*… it looks a little too ‘woody’ from where I was looking so might be another of those ‘perched on a cliff’ type … More Still rambling.
I spy with my little eye something beginning with… ‘P’… for ‘possible’. We went… we came back… and to be honest, mostly what I confirmed is that ‘the bush’ is really a pretty scruffy sort of place with fallen branches, leaves and general detritus all over the place. The places that appealed the most were, … More I spy with my little eye.
The Dog and family are off to look at a small place even further outside Sydney than we are now. Over the years this place has become less and less rural as the population steadily expands northwest. The recent upgrade in transport however makes a longer trip a little more viable so we’re looking at … More Time for a move?
Paris has been thrown back in the slammer screaming and crying for her mother. I’d promised myself not to write anything about her or her idiotic behaviour but find myself drawn like a moth to a flame. I’ve seen all sorts of comments about how sad it is and how unjust etc that she should … More Paris Hilton
