I saw this article on watoday.com.au this week, and was overwhelmed by the sheer clicky-ness of it. Seriously, if there was ever anything that could be linked to, they did. At what point does one stop? They could have linked to the one website, without having to provide all the lower links as well as it was being described ( Read more... )

"Can you imagine having an orgy with your sister?"

You know what would male for a really interesting season of Big Brother USA? Two houses, both filled with twins; but one from each pair go into each house. And NEVER join the houses. So technically two identical houses, housemates (sorry, "houseguests" in the US) and all, and see how things pan out.

It would have to the the US series seeing that's ( Read more... )

Once again censorship continues to confuse and befuddle me.

There's an ad on Nova at the moment at all hours of the day that goes on about winning "shit-hot tickets".

Got a message from Mum this morning letting me know my brother was back on Australian terra firma. He's in Sydney, and is planning on hiring a car and driving home in a few days time, probably getting back to Perth next week sometime.

I've had a pretty sweet, quiet weekend. Friday night was our regular movies and wine at Brett's, watching thriller Transsiberian to vaguely kind of tie in with Halloween, and The Black Balloon. And play some SingStar :P.

Saturday morning I had to go out to this property in Craigie for work, then went down to Delish at Floreat Forum for lunch with ( Read more... )

So Livejournal finally has an iPhone app. I've really been neglecting LJ for a while, partially cause I'm too lazy to actually find specific time to sit down and write something, and also because Facebook seems to have vaguely replaced my postings; especially with the FB iPhone app.

But hopefully this will make for more semi-regular postings. In ( Read more... )

You know I've written some (a lot of) crap in my life, but I don't think too much compares to an email I spent this afternoon writing. We had to update the Director on results and feedback that came out of this series of "cultural change" interviews at work, and that email was potentially the most nebulous thing I have written in some time ( Read more... )
