Anzac Day

My day started early today when i headed to the Dawn Anzac Day ceremony. I feel the dawn service has so much more meaning than the later ceremony and parade. It was pleasing to see that the ceremony well attended too.
We were lucky with the weather, the morning was fine and a little overcast but [...]

Mac Viruses are a little … different


Back Kicking Arse and Taking Names

Well not quite really but my blog is working again for me and that is some relief. Blogging is as well as a revenue stream more than a little bit of an addiction for me and to have a problem with it is an uncomfortable  and annoying  experience for me!

Problems

There is good news and there is … well the not so good news.
The good news is that i have managed thanks to the chance to install an older version of WordPress been able to set up livejournal crosspost so that everything here is posted automatically there on my account. No more cut and [...]

Underbelly already?

Still on the topic of tv and movies from buying my copy of Hustle I noticed that with three episodes still to screen on tv, Underbelly is already available for preorder with big “uncut” on the cover.

For those that don’t know, Port Arthur is a former penal colony where convicts were transported from England and [...]

More attuned of Late

Maybe i am just attuned to it more but i have really been noticing sunsets of late like this one that i took out the passenger side window of the car driving home tonight. Admittedly as any reader of my photoblog Hobart Daily would agree, there have been some great sunsets of late for me [...]

I’m not staying in 1408

This might come as a shock with everything that i watch but i am not a big fan of scary movies. They don’t normally scare me and if they are based on a book they they loose some of the subtle (and not so subtle) plot turns along the way.
Yet tonight I find myself sitting [...]

Better Now

If there is one thing that is really annoying me lately its blogs with musical things installed in their sidebar to play what ever song of choice of the particular blogger.
I guess my dislike of them comes from the way that i browse blogs. I use Firefox and open many coming back to each once [...]
