Linkin Biscuit
Yesterday I was checking out the $10.00 CD tables at Fish Records in Newtown and came across “The Best of Limp Biscuit”… WHAT? Didn’t he only have one song? How can you have a “Best Of” with only one song…? W...
It’s back on!
It’s back on, it’s awesome, and there are bags under my eyes! Go Cadel! And go Robbie McEwan! I love this time of year!...
The Husqi, the Kwaka, and the Zuki
Haven’t had time to blog about this, but a couple of weeks ago Nathan, larry and I went for a bike ride down to Bulli and back. Nathan was on his Husqi (Husqvarna 610 motard), Larry was on Nathan’s Kwaka (Kawasaki ZX9), and I was on the Z...
Shiver
Do you remember this song? I love this song, but it’s not on iTunes… I think I may have it on tape somewhere… Shiver - Screaming Jets...
The Chronicles of… Narnia
Just wondering if we’re going to get a lot more traffic to our blog site by accident now that “Prince Caspian - the chronicles of narnia” movie is out here now in australian cinemas? And given that I may just have used every googl...
Dracula
Last weekend I read Bram Stocker’s “Dracula”. (I hear you “they made a book out of that movie?” mmmmm… ) The novel is 111 years old but it’s a cracker! I bought it on Thursday and finished it on Monday (which...
Perfect Tipper
I just want to say (brag) that last weekend I tipped a perfect 8 winners in the AFL. And now the Chronicles is back up I can tell everyone!...
World problem #1
Here is a thought for today: Without exception, all the problems in the world are problems with relationship....
Nathan’s Testimony Challenge
In response to Nathan Lee’s challenge… (The rules are: your testimony in 100 words or less). “My parents are Christians and introduced me to Jesus from my early childhood. At age 11 I publicly confirmed that I would continue to foll...
Macromedia Madness!!
So… I recently have moved from PC to mac, and the transfer of files has been quite a pleasant experience thus fair.However, as is bound to happen, one program in particular has given me grief… My macromedia studio MX 2004 program. Some wi...
Del-Del
This is a follow on post from ‘Thanks Victor Kelleher‘ I just finished reading another of his books called Del-Del. It’s a book that won the Children’s book of the year in 1992 but for some reason I had neglected to read it un...
Make Poverty History
This is inspired by a conversation we had at Bible study last night, in fact the above slogan belongs to Dave our BS leader, but I like it, and seeing as I’m the first one to put it on the net that more or less makes it mine. The “Make Po...
Getting your L’s…
Getting your driver’s licence used to be such a straight forward affair… You read your learner’s booklet from the RTA. You turn up, pay $15.00 and do your knowledge test. You pass and book in your P’s test for 6 months later&#...
Is Rock n Roll the Devil’s music?
This is a blog I’m writing for a youth site called life7 and I would love to hear some feed back about this argument. Things I’ve missed? Things that don’t follow logic? Alice Cooper, Marilyn Manson, KISS, Black Sabbath, AC/DC, Mega...
Is Banksy in Sydney?
Walking through a back lane in Stanmore the other day and saw this very familiar stencil (see pics). It is none other than a very well known graffiti stencil from (quite possibly) the most famous graffiti artis in the world: Banksy - from Bristol ...
Kyck 08
Just got back from Kyck this last weekend. It was a brilliant weekend for our youth group, and I think for others as well. We had about 8 of our kids declare publicly that they wanted to give their whole lives to following Jesus, and that’s alw...
No Autographs Please…
My modeling career just took a turn for the worst… Enough said. ...

New Car!
We just got our new car delivered on Thursday to our door with a full tank! It’s a Mazda 3 hatch, 2lt turbo diesel, 6 speed manual, 16″ alloy rims, and tow bar, in Arora blue (I would’ve like red… red goes faster). We got it o...
I’m glad I finally got to see the pumpkins…
…well i actually went and saw the Pumpkins back in 1998 (I think), but that show doesn’t count because they were in their boring ava ‘adore rock ballad kina phase and they didn’t play much rock… However this time I saw t...
The final winter
Watched this movie last night. Filmed in 2006, released in 2007, just came on DVD this week. It’s a movie about a rugby league football player for Newtown Jets back in the 80’s when league was transforming from the amateurish hardmanR...
Ever seen Narwee high look like this?
Ever seen Narwee High look like this?It’s being transformed somewhat. Check it out here. I think the park area is where the hall used to be…...
A challenge to the right wing and the atheist
I read this article in the SMH on saturday. A good article with some clear logic and an interesting challenge to right wing complainers and the anti-religious. You can find the original article here but I’ve pasted the article by Lisa Pryor b...
World’s best knock knock Joke
Without understating it in anyway… I have come up with the world’s best knock knock jokes. By posting them here on the net, I just want to legitimate my claim to these jokes so that when you hear them from other people (as they do the rou...
Thanks Victor Kelleher
I was never much for being a reader as a child. In the MS readathon, my friends had often read 600 books by the end of the month, and I had just realised that I was more captivated by the cover of my books than the words inside… But in 1991 I f...
Hi. My name’s Michael and I’m a social drinker…
So we went for Fi’s first antenatal checkup today (we’re 13 weeks now woohoo!). As part of the initial checkup procedure, there was a point where I had to leave the room so the Doc could ask Fi some personal questions about our relationsh...
Little thieves!
Had one of those great days yesterday… Fi left her mobile phone in the car overnight. We remembered it before going to bed but couldn’t be bothered walking down stairs to get it, and as we tried to motivate ourselves to go get it we joked...
Apple man
I am now officially an Apple man… My new macbook arrived in the mail yesterday, and I’m now in the re-education phase… I’m glad to say that after only one day, i feel as though I have the hang of it, and I know my way around....
let the kids spray
Take a good look at this picture. What do you see? This is not a a psyche test. You’re not supposed to see an apparition of Mary, or the face of Jesus and the sacred heart. It’s concrete. Plain ol’ fashioned concrete. There is nothi...
