I Think I Might Be Camping…
We’re going on to the 2 week mark of not having a working hot water system, and then last night our oven decides to pack it in. So now I think we are just camping in our house. For the past 2 weeks I’ve had to drive to the amenities bloc...
The Office
Watched a couple of episode of The Office (US series) last night… I laughed a lot, maybe too much, at Dwight’s response to Michael’s question here… Maybe it was a context thing and this clip isn’t long enough, hopefully...
A Little of My Weekend
Early, like way too early Saturday morning the little one was crying so the plan was to quickly put him back to sleep then me. But part the way through the process Nat tells me the hot water system is leaking, the worst thing about this is that our s...
Another Youtube clip…
I watched Dicker’s last post with the Arj Barker clips and then cliked on some of the other ones that come up at the end and got to the following one, I remember seeing it before and it still impresses me…...
Parkes
I got up a little earlier yesterday to drive to Parkes, about an hour and 20 mins, to follow one of the guys from work who was selling a car down there. I was going to do the finance side of things and then give him a lift back. After being delayed a...
The Men Who Stare at Goats
Here’s a movie trailer for you, at first it looked a little, cheap old laughs, but by the end I thought it was funny and want to see it....
Jeep Update
Thought it was time for another Jeep update… Things are moving along in leaps and bounds now, well it doesn’t really look like it, but the momentum has certainly picked up again after a couple of months of slowness due to financial constr...
Dinner
So on Tuesday night I cooked dinner, I kid you not it’s a true story!! Ok, so that’s not so unbelievable, but what is is that it wasn’t spag bol or meat and veg, but rather roasted chicken breast stuffed with Camembert cheese and p...
Blackout
This morning there was a blackout at home after a big storm in the early hours of the morning. Now I’m annoyed at the electricity company, but mainly because that got the power back on relatively quickly. It was off when I woke up, so I had a s...
Sign Me This?
I’ve noticed recently that my signature is an evolving piece of artwork, and not necessarily getting better but rather heading the other way. The more I sign the more it seems to look nothing like my name and the more simplistic it is getting. ...
Boobs.
A few people have asked me what the deal is with the ad that keeps appearing that has the lady with the boobs and words like “Build your Empire” and “Start your journey now my lord” But they obviously know, as they tell me t...
Web Host
Looks like we’re going to need to find a new place to host our website… the current one will be unavailable soon, which sucks because up until now it has been free!! Any suggestions as to what we should do? Pete, maybe you need to tweet a...
iTunes Genius
As seems to be the habit I’m about to write a few words on something I have barely used, but hey why bother waiting until you have a real understanding of something. I installed the Genius feature on iTunes pretty much when it became availabl...
Does this exist?
Here’s another thing that I would like someone to either invent, or let me know exists at a reasonable price… It’s simple, I own a Desktop and no longer have a Laptop, now I love the specs that I could get in a desktop at a reasona...
Digital Set Top Box
As you may know I have one now. I set it up and all worked fine, as soon as I plugged it in it ran through and found all the stations automatically. Flicking through I noticed some had a ‘bad signal’ box show up on the screen but I was to...
Turning over a new leaf…
I’ve been thinking lately that I want to get back into exercise, well I don’t really but I do want to be fitter and that. I’ve tried to figure out a time when I can go for a jog, actually it’s really a walk but being a guy I n...
Wanna Start Something??
I love the way this one guy starts something big, without even really trying…...
Tour de France
Just quietly, I’m looking forward to seeing updates on our blog. Is our correspondent ready for another year?? I hope you’ve been saving up on sleep and have all morning meetings and appointments cancelled while its on so that rather tha...
Home Handyman
Yesterday I put up a lovely ikea coat rack (as seen in the image) at our place. Before I go any further though I must warn you that if you visit it may not be a good idea to actually hang anything on it… this is what happened… I got out...
Twitter Apps
I’m enjoying twitter, I like the way some people will put up tweets just about what they are doing including the mundane, and others aim to be witty, funny, cryptic, etc. and still others do a combination of the lot… and in the end if...
Today’s music… or more music I heard today…
I’m putting this out there, I don’t mind some of the music of Lily Allen, not sure how that will be received, but whatever, I like it. I like the style of that music and actually it is her voice that really adds that extra bit of novelty...
Bit of AFL on Youtube
The Dickers were at our place last weekend and we watched a few clips on youtube, here’s a couple I liked and one I found since that is tops. This first one is the one I found since, it’s a great mark!! This next one I hate the way the p...
Domain Name Companies
So… I have a dislike for Domain Name sellers at the moment, well it has gone on for a few years… I’ve delt with a few and they’ve all been annoying in different ways, it was a nightmare renewing last year and then this year it...
Breakfast Time
Wendy’s have outdone themselves!! Travelling to work I heard an ad on the radio for their latest breakfast menu item… here’s the description, also available on their website… Wendy’s great tasting Brekky Dog* is made fro...
State of Origin
Travelling to work this morning I hear that the first game in the State of Origin series is on tonight. Now I’ve seen a little bit in the sports shop windows about it and heard a tiny bit in the news about team selection… but c’mon ...
Medical System
I love the Australian Medical system or whatever you want to call it… Last night Caleb slipped in the bath and put a gash under his chin, he’s doing ok with it all, cried a little naturally, but seems to be right with it all. Anyway so we...
Marco! or Marco?
I’ve been pondering things that matter lately and here’s one I think I need a little more input on. When you shout Marco are you asking a question or making a statement? I need to know if when I’m yelling it out I should be putting ...
Fun Times Ahead…
New computer has been ordered, will be here next week hopefully, then maybe I can get back to blogging and living online a little more. Unfortunately as good as they seem a Mac was still out of the budget, even a refurbished one.....
