oh my, its full of stars

Its great to be living in such a lightly populated area.  Yes, there are lights, roads, houses blach blah, but so much less than in good old England.  I dont know if the sky is much clearer than I’m used to as well, but just looking up at the sky from the front porch reveals many times more stars than I’m used to seeing….

more genius

Senator Stephen Conroy, Australia’s communications minister is the master genius of all government ministers. Not only is he still pushing ahead with is universally laughed at “internet filter” plan – where he wants the government to filter and control access to naughty websites around the world (and to note, he has publically branded anyone that doesn’t support this plan as a paedophile – perhaps…

earth hour

Earth Hour – good idea, in theory.  Turn off unnecessary lights, computers and stuff, don’t have to generate so much power, use less coal/gas, pollute less as a result – yeah, I can buy into that.  Efficiency is a Good Thing. Tie that in with “Global Warming”, however, and link in CO2 production with it – I’m less than convinced. Mostly cos the people…

shirts

wandering through Myer in Carousel shops today I saw a nice shirt – must save up 🙂

Anyway, he’s funny in a very funny french speaking transvestitey kind of way and its cool to…

*yawn* things are a bit boring in here today.. ah well. conference call meeting meeting home and to top it all, its raining. I know, the audacity of it! Its not rained much since December (well, its not supposed to) and everything looks so dull today! Clouds, overcast. Meh! I like the blue skies and sunshine.. what else humm, getting the TV fixed at…

genius

bloke across the office after taking a call Caller: ..(whatever a caller normally says)- “is Dave there?” (or something) Office man: “nah mate, you got the wrong number” Caller ..obviously asks something like “what do you mean I have a wrong number?” Office man: “normally it means you pressed the wrong button mate” and hangs up. Brilliant!

gah, twitter

sucked in. I swore I wouldn’t be. nooooo!!! it may pass.

oh no, not again

sometimes its frustrating to be slightly better informed than the general populaiton. As a geologist (by education I should stress, not by profession) I’m used to the idea that the world has been around for a bloody long time and conditions on the surface have been everywhere from frozen over from pole to pole and pretty much hot dry desert for countless millions of…
