I’d never make it as a Hipster. And not just because I lack an ironic moustache. I just don’t get the concept. For example, we have the technology to digitally record crystal clear sound. We mix it electronically in high fidelity to ensure it’s of optimum quality. Then, cut it down to a vinyl disc . . . → Read More: I’d never make it as a Hipster This past week, I was: [ ] pronking like a ‘paca [ ] Happy as an Ever After [ ] Sicker than a Smocust Bucket [ ] Colder than a Plucked Pheasant [ ] Other: (please specify) __________________ I was so: [ ] happy [ ] upset [ ] amused [ ] annoyed [ ] . . . → Read More: FOF – Please fill in the blanks As I write this, evening is drawing to a close on ANZAC Day. Flipping through the TV channels, I flaw an old re-run of M.A.S.H. It’s a poignant reminder of the realities of war. No, seriously. The series largely revolves around the practical jokes and hijinks of the doctors and nurses in the hospital. It’s . . . → Read More: FOF – Focus on the good times Smoph and I spent much of the weekend before last at Supernova. For those of you not in the know, it’s one of the major pop culture / fandom / Sci-Fi / Anime / Everything conventions, and I was a very lucky boy and got to celebrate my birthday weekend there. It was particularly interesting . . . → Read More: MMM – Marvellous Manga on Monday Oh what fun it is Relocating Residence Please just shoot me now Last time we moved (and the time before) it was a reasonably slick operation.

It’s time for the FoF. Which means you can feel free to ignore what I write here. We’ve been doing FoFs for a long time. You know what to do. There’s no need for me to say any more, really. Go ahead. FoF. Tweet this! I’ve mentioned before the sorts of electronic gadgetry I like installing.

And, to continue with the wheel analogy, we ended up back where we started. According to some media reports, Gillard “stared down” Kevin Rudd.
