How cool is this.

Well I've started reading again, we'll see how long it lasts this time before there is yet another pile of half finish books next to the bed and an ever growing collection of new books on the floor.

I've just finish Nick Hornby's The Complete Polysyllabic Spree, I liked it. Not least of all because he says and does things I do and agree with, such as, buying more books than you will every get round to reading and not reading books because they are literary, but because you enjoy them - nothing wrong with a bit of Dan Brown every now and then.

I've started Brave New World by Aldous Huxley on the plane home from Queensland. It was only an hour so not a lot of reading, rather a lot skipped though as the introduction seems to give an overview of the entire story.

So new year, had a few thoughts, one is too use blog more, now with the wonderful labels.

I wonder how many books you have to buy before a free
trip.

Found a review of
World's Fastest Indian

Oh god, I live in the same country as this woman and they want to be a credible opposition, but can't even unite one day after a leader change. Howard will be in until he can't walk or until either Labour or the greens get there shit together.

About bloody time,
really does make rather a lot of sense - *Sigh* wonder how long we have to wait.
Of course we can bring our mighty air force to any union -mwa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Just brought and watched the world's fastest indian, wonderful.

My lovely new mac is here and I have got used to the extra screen real estate disturbingly quickly. I've spent all day rebuilding the PowerBook, well a reinstall and applying updates and installing a few of the basics like growl, Adium and quicksilver.

My god the screen is small, sigh.

I need to sort out disk space, I only went for the 100 GB and I'm through two thirds of it already *sigh*.

*sob* they are here at last, now, how to pay for it.

Intelligentsia - what a wanker

What the world needs now, is International talk like Scooby Doo day.

Stubble Static : The noise stubble makes when your phone rubs against your face.

This is great.

Bloody hell, Peter Brock has been killed!

Okay, I'm back from Laos - It was great, more later ( Photos being uploaded to Flickr as I type).

Went to Gomez lastnight, it was fucking awesome - they were so not what I expected, for one there was thousands of them, okay 7 or something and they all looked normal - Not all "we are cool cos we are in an excellent band".

Oh and on a "funny, but incredible bad taste", bring you this.

Saw Paradise Now over the weekend, excellent movie, well worth a watch - Aeon Flux, however, is most definitely not.

My god, something good out of the Sydney morning herald, what next ?

Brought a tagine and a great Moroccan cookbook over the weekend. So far I have learnt the following:

a) Tagines change temperature slowly compared to a gas hob, don't turn them up and leave them - they make a mess.

b) Pay attention to measurements when it comes to mixing spices, to much chili IS a bad thing.

The cookbook is made in morocco, brilliant book, even if you don't want to make any of the recipe's, wonderful photography.

Different availability on itunes shits me, as does incomplete album collections.
Would you buy paint from someone who can only supply 4 out of 6 colours or 2 out of 16.
Media companies need to move on, there will always be those that don't pay, you should never impede those that are willing to, nor those that are shopping via trusted medium.
