David and his wife Anna came around for a visit today – they are currently on holidays and were in the neighborhood so thought it would be nice to drop by. I always feel a bit guilty when friends drop by or call just out-of-the-blue as I know I really should be a lot more [...]
Ingenuity has grown over the past few years with very little marketing and advertising – sure we’ve strategically aligned ourselves with a few web developers, advertised in the Yellowpages, had a miserable brochure mail-out and optimised the website so it can be found better in the search engines, but really we haven’t pro-actively tried approaching [...]
Over the weekend we watched Just Friends, The Producers and Hostel. I was amazed at how funny Just Friends was – there were parts of the movie I was literally in tears… I honestly can’t remember the last time I laughed so hard! I’m not going to spoil it, but watch-out for all the scenes [...]
Lucky I work for me, otherwise my boss could sack me for blogging: http://australianit.news.com.au/articles/0,7204,19840229%5e16123%5e%5enbv%5e,00.html
Once again we’re already at Wednesday and the week has been a blur! Most of my evenings lately have been spent with organising my MP3 collection and ripping my old CD’s. I’ve just found some really handy software which makes the process a lot easier called “MediaMonkey”. Previously I was using one piece of software [...]
Late last week I got a new toy – a Creative Zen Vision M, 30Gb MP3 player. Product Website: http://www.creative.com/products/mp3/zenvisionm/ Review Site: http://reviews.cnet.com/Creative_Zen_Vision_M_30GB_black/4505-6490_7-31632696.html?tag=pdtl-list It is awesome… plays music, videos, FM tuner, voice/radio recorder, has an inbuilt organiser… the video quality is better than iPod, the battery life is also better than iPod… it’s a little [...]
On Sunday we went to the Sacred Heart School Fete… This is the school Caleb goes to, and was also the primary school that I attended, so the tradition of attending the annual fete goes way back. Rides, sweet stalls, lots of kids and lots of old people… all the types of things you expect [...]
On the weekend we went to see Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest and it was awesome! I’ve read some reviews that said the movie was lacking in story-line… others said that it was basically the same as the first one just with a few more special effects. So now it’s my turn to [...]
On Sunday we went to get the paper, check the PO Box and had a picnic lunch… Sunday night we went-out for dinner to the Hogg’s Breath Cafe because I felt like steak. So that pretty-much sums up the weekend. I’m looking forward to this week as I feel it will be quite productive and [...]
