RoboWars

First up, Saturday. I didn’t do a whole lot – spent a fair bit of it working, and did some more work on the cat cage. We finished the frame, so all that’s left now is the wire. It was a reasonably productive day, all in all. Sunday, I had been planning all week to… Read more

Beach Days

Yesterday was a very lazy day… I got up rather later than I expected, which altogether wasn’t unexpected :), and meandered around for a bit. I put some washing on and then went walkies to Benton’s Square for cereal and milk, of which there were none. Nearly two hours later, I finally returned… that bloody… Read more

Beach & Longboard Surf Cafe

There’s nothing wrong with any of it – a whole range of ancient Macs, printers, a pristine Apple OneScanner, Zip drives, hard… Read more

What Men Want

So who’s the female equivalent of Mel Gibson suitable for such a movie? Courtney Love? :P Anyway, Brett’s gone and darn well set me off again on a little rant, courtesy of his Ultimate Sex Appeal Item blog entry, to which my comment is: It’s a common fallacy amongst women that sexiness is directly proportionate… Read more
