You may have heard about the devastating cyclone that hit the Northern Territory a few months ago. The banana crop was basically wiped out, as you can see…

For those who heard me say ‘If I ever get a desk job you can kick my ass’ now may be the time to do it. This is my desk…

Note the cool tray thing for papers at the left, the high tech laptop support, old SIRTF poster, and the essential Sony Pro headphones…
So a lot of people took a lot of photos. I’ll let them do the talking…
I’m curious, almost every entry in this blog aquires a rating of 3. Very middle of the road. I suspect there’s something funny going on, like they’re not being rated by real people…
You can help me confirm this by rating this entry zero, instead of middle of the road like all the others. Then we might be able to see whether the ratings are real or not!
ZERO!
I’d just like to bring your attention to how well I’m doing in the Mt Stromlo AFL Footy tipping competition. Considering I come from New Zealand, a place where sportsmen who punch people in the guts actually get penalised for it, rather than cause a debate whether he was going for the ball or not, I think I’m doing quite well.
I’ve already topped the tipping one week already, and am placed nicely in the ladder, go check out my progress at Laura’s AFL page
I wish to report a disturbing trend of late: some people who shall remain nameless have taken to calling me names, which sickens me. I have no space in my life to be called ‘granty’, or ‘grantie’, both are repulsive…the word ‘cute’ has also been bandied around with reckless abandon at times.
This must be put to an end. The time for a bad deed is evidently long overdue…watch this space.
haha I guess i forgot to mention that I have recently purchased an Olympus E500 Digital SLR. Hence the cool picture in the previous post. I’ve found some helpful web resources so far that might help you if you have one of these cool toys too.
How cool is this? This guy (or girl) was hanging out in our backyard area this afternoon. I just had to take some piccies…
