We finally have reception. I don't know if you can fully understand how utterly freaking fantastic that little thing is. Our television is finally receiving clear pictures. Once upon a time we got clear reception. That was way back in our Pay T...

Quick update

2008-05-02T01:13:43Z

I'm alive. Just to let you all know that. I've strained the muscles in my back so I haven't been able to sit at the computer much (too much time sitting in a bad position on a bad chair is what injured my back in the first place). But don't worry...

A little wind problem

2008-04-02T03:44:06Z

'Stupid' has just reached a new level, and it's called Australia Post

2008-03-28T06:58:56Z

A question to computer geeks: should I blame Microsoft or Canon?

2008-03-24T07:57:06Z

My scanner has been cactus for a while now. One day the TWAIN drivers went missing never to return. Reinstalling the drivers doesn't work. Uninstalling the scanner drivers, deleting the TWAIN32 folders and files then reinstalling it all again does...

What's the best thing about today? For once I actually have several things vying for this award! EWK is getting better after his nasty infection that we shall not talk about because anything to do with infections is kinda gross. I may have m...

Thank goodness for the 'dignity of the chamber'

2008-02-16T03:24:41Z

In the understandable excitement about the parliamentary apology to the stolen generation earlier this week, this interaction between the Deputy Prime Minister and the Member for O'Connor got lost in the mix. 'Dignity of the chamber' indeed. ...
