Weddings

I’m between Wedding and Reception for my best friends Anna and Andrew, the most excellentest people I know. They matched each other up there at the front of the Chapel, and I don’t just mean that one wore black and the other wore white. I mean that they look good together. They really are both terrific, and couldn’t be more perfect for each other. I wish them both the best. And I hope they make it through the rest of the day. Yahoo tells me its a top of 33˚C today and the abc LIES and tells me 24˚C, and frankly, I’m not inclined to believe anyone who says it’s less than 37… So yeah they would be hot. And I’m looking forward to the reception. Who doesn’t love a reception?

My wife and I have been waiting for these two to get married since about a week after they started dating, and most of the time we keep forgetting they aren’t. So I’m not sure how much will change… for us (I’m hoping things might be slightly different for them!)

So whoever you are reading this, charge a glass and join me in a cyber-toast to the coolest couple in the world, Anna and Andrew!

CTRL-ALT-DEL Comic

I have just spent one and a half days straight reading every CTRL+ALT+DEL comic that Tim has drawn. I am a fan. I can’t say that I agree with his characters views on Macs and Nintendos, but as God hates console fanboys, I shall not start anything here. Anyway, with today being new years eve eve, I’ll say happy Winter-een-mas to anyone reading this in the month of January, and hope that Australians can celebrate the holiday season in summer (summer-winter-een-mas?).

Outrage

It seems that I’m the only one shocked that Google keeps putting up pages telling users (customers) that they have a virus. For those who don’t know, some users (when making searches) are sent to a page that declares:

We’re sorry… but we can’t process your request right now. A computer virus or spyware application is sending us automated requests, and it appears that your computer or network has been infected.

Web 2.0 and free stuff

I must have the best and latest of everything. This holds true for me as long as my budget holds up. In fact, its less ‘latest and greatest’ and more ‘what people are willing to give me’ most of the time. Not that I’m cheep, just that I’m poor.

Welcome to My First Post

This is it. I’m online. I have a web presence. Yay.
It’s two days after Christmas. I’ve wanted to get online for a while, being an IT guy but I’ve kept not doing it. I suppose I’ve thought I’m not interesting enough, and I may not be, but now I don’t care anymore. So I’m here now. So I’ve spent about 5 hours getting my website setup, installing and uninstalling different options (as given to me by my provider).
