Today I spent quite a bit of time in front of the TV watching a funeral - the state funeral of Sir Ed ( Read more... )

Well the world cup (The world cup of Rugby that is) is going quite nicely in France and various other places in Europe. The All Blacks have thumped Italy and tonight they are tackling Portugal. It's really a no win game for the AB's. Portugal is pretty much one of the minnows of rugby and are up for a hiding. The only thing that could come out ( Read more... )

I've always been pretty interested in past lives and sould/spirits, auras, etc, but really don't know anything much about them. I've read a bit but that's about the extent of my knowledge. Well, yesterday was very interesting. A friend of mine came to visit me for a chat and coffee. I don't see him often as he lives quite far away. Now, a few ( Read more... )

Earlier this evening, I was trying to find something to watch on the TV. So I channel surfed through the few I have. I get Sky, but not the expensive version, so I only have about 20 or so. Flipping through these channels, I found lots of reality shows of various kinds and that got me thinking, which is generally a bad thing ( Read more... )

Between reading the papers, playing the macros, clicking on "bottoms" and cleaning, I did managed to finish a fractal that I was playing with the other day and create a new one. I've discovered a new colouring formula that I really like. Spiral works so well with Julias.

I just read the newspapers and I am now so totally pissed of (which is annoying cos I was in a great mood thanks the Beanie goodness and Beanie-fan even-betterness). A while ago, I wrote about the horrendous week we had down here in NZ. Four little girls where killed by their families. One of these was a toddler nicknamed Lilybing. Her "aunts" ( Read more... )

Can't sleep again, so I am meandering around the net looking for things to keep me busy. I found this. Gacked from someone, can't remember who.

Good, I suppose. Magical is good, but just once I'd like to powerful and mean and nasty and violent!

I've had an oddly introspective few days. My mind has been meandering all over the place.

It all started with a post by divineway. In her post she spoke of the 3 desires - romance, to star in a greadt adventure and unveiling beauty. I spent a lot of time thinking about those but am really too tired to go into all that now. Anyway, I ended up concluding ( Read more... )

I recently rediscovered fractals. I can remember playing around with GW Basic and writing a few programs to generate fractals, but they were pretty simple and did not really iterate enough to produce anything worth looking at. I was browsing around on the net and found some sites with some amazing fractals. That got me searching for the software ( Read more... )
