Warning: MAY have side effects. (BuzzMoo)
Well, the lovley people at Grunenthal GmbH (D-52224 Stolberg Germany) decided that it was not a good idea to put such a warning on their boxes of medecine. Also, my doctor didn’t warn of side-effects or any other such nonsense. Well it really does have side effects. It put me to sleep alright, actually boardered [...]
0x0ring the b0x0r (Mert)
Everything has a way of going horribly wrong for me. Well maybe the glass is just half full but I seem to miss out on an awful lot, especially when it comes to music. St. Germain snuck by on tour just as I was getting into it. I missed out on seeing Chem. Bros. in [...]
Glandular fever (BuzzMoo)
Owwww. I haven’t slept very well for the past 3 nights. It’s been interesting checking the stars every hour or so, see which way they fly. Every time i start to drift off to sleep, i get this dream that feels “hard”. It’s boring and frustrating and it just sits there looping. Roy from OzForces [...]
Fighting the power (Mert)
Raise your hand if you spent yesterday (which is actually two days ago) demolishing a church. Take my word for it that my hand is rasied. Well it’s not raised but I assure you that if my arms weren’t so damned sore it would be. Here’s the story: Some family friends of ours are renovating [...]
Christmas Newcastle style (Mert)
If you look over in the rants/misadventures section you’ll see a new one – ‘Christmas Newcastle style’. Just a little article I did on a pretty spectacular house around these parts. Also moved the posts from December over to the archives. You know the drill, check them out if you missed any (or want to [...]
Highlight of the day (BuzzMoo)
Now monitoring and updating the OzForces sites/forums and checking out the servers takes a few hours of non stop work, it’s actually work! But this relativley quiet day is punctuated by a hilarious conversation i just had. Well, it’s not really a conversation, and some of you might not even find it funny. But i’ll [...]
Look, Sam, I updated all by myself this time! (Mert)
Consider this the first stupid post of the new year. Ah yes, NYE’02. Where does the time go and all that. Another NYE in Newcastle. As is the tradition we did nothing. Well not nothing. We did venture down to the lake to watch the fireworks at 9. Sat at the side of the lake [...]
Skewed Perception, Straight sight? (BuzzMoo)
I’m sort of laughing right now because it’s absurd. I’ve woken up and everything has gone back to how it was. I have my Love Pad back, the christmas tree is gone, the decorations are down, my family is doing all the things it did before. It’s kind of like things are reset, like i’ve [...]
