These were sent to me last week: The blog www.ironicsans.com came-up with an idea… basically it states that “Mr. T has had basically the same look for the entire time he’s been in the public spotlight. What if he shaved his mohawk? What if he shaved his beard? What would he look like?” … so [...]
The last few days have been a rollercoaster ride (and although I’m a wuss and don’t really like rides), it has been a lot of fun. On Friday afternoon, my laptop blue-screened and then died. Upon tinkering I managed to get it to reboot and get me as far as a bios screen which indicates [...]
Lastnight Kristy and I scored tickets to the premier of Pirates of the Caribbean – At World’s End which we both have been really looking forward to seeing but unfortunately due to the premier coinciding with the first match of the State of Origin (not to be confused with the State of Oregon) we didn’t [...]
Last weekend was great. I caught-up on a few movies – Alpha Dog, Batman Begins, The Illusionist and A Good Year. Alpha Dog was the true story of Jesse James Hollywood, a drug dealer who became one of the youngest men ever to be on the FBI’s most wanted list. It wasn’t bad until the [...]
Over the past few months I’ve been inundated with blog spam – generally it consists of automated bots posting unrelated comments full of links… most of which my blog software WordPress managed to block, but there were still a truckload of comments I’d manually have to reject… until I discovered a plug-in called Bad Behavior.

When it’s your girlfriend’s birthday, make sure the first thing you do when you wake-up is wish her a happy birthday. Now this doesn’t sound too tricky, but so far I’ve stuffed this up a couple of times over the years and this year was one of them. Not to act as an excuse, but [...]
Attended another networking event last week which was really good. There were a couple of my clients there, plus I also host the website of the venue, so I actually knew a few people before I entered the room which made things a lot less stressful. One of my clients is a prolific networker and [...]
Many years ago I attempted doing an IT degree at Griffith Uni and got most of the way through, but didn’t quite get it finished. In the final year of the degree you’re required to do a full-year project which is contributed by local businesses to give the students real-world experience in designing and implementing [...]
I’ve always liked the concept of having a chair that you can call your own. Most commonly associated with old men who grouch about anyone who sits in “their chair” and usually “their chair” is as old as they are and often doesn’t match anything else in the room… So I wanted one and after [...]
I was reading through Vicky’s blog on MySpace the other day and she made reference to Imagini VisualDNA which is an interesting website where you select a bunch of pictures to identify different things you enjoy and from that they build a profile for you. My profile was a little bit off, but it still [...]
