Big news

Stick Cricket is annoying and a complete pain in the arse. I hate it with a passion.

… Because I suck at it.

Uh oh

My younger brother and a friend of his present a radio show on the local community radio station. They are given free reign to say what they want and play whatever music they want.

Yesterday afternoon, I was invited (or, to be more specific, told) by my younger brother that I’d be joining him for the hour-long radio show. So I did.

I managed to record the show in its entirety, and I’m currently working on turning it into an mp3. Obviously due to numerous copyright infringements I will need to remove the songs we played, however we did talk an obscene amount of rubbish on air.

As soon as I’m able to post the show online, I’ll provide a link on this post so stay tuned… As it were.

It’s warming up… apparently

A lovely Christmas was had by all. At my place we enjoyed everything from duck to lobster, beautiful salads, quiches and other assorted goodies. Oh, and some truly excellent wine from some local wineries.

With my family on the NSW Mid North Coast, our thermometer didn’t go above about 23 or 24 degrees today. Meanwhile, elsewhere in Australia, it was much colder. Clearly global warming at work.

Still, due to the low temperatures, I felt that it was in order to do something to help warm up my immediate surroundings. I thought about it for a little while, before coming to the conclusion that I’d do best to get into something that would not only warm things up a bit by burning more fossil fuels than necessary, but also annoy others whilst doing it. The weapon of choice? An American SUV.

Unfortunately, it didn’t work. Temperatures didn’t rise and the world didn’t end. Wrong again, envirotards!
