HB Bek, Eloise

Today’s the birthday of Bek, and my cousin Eloise. Hope you guys both have a great day.
I wasn’t in yesterday, so no blog entry. It was a very full-on day, with my uncle’s funeral at 11:30am, and an extended family day at M&D’s. We had Foo for dinner which was always a nice way [...]

Bek’s Birthday

As Bek just said:
hey dean - sorry to bug you but can you blog birthday and interest for
it to be on Friday or Saturday night?
I guess people can email me or her directly, or leave a comment here. Thanks peeps. :hugs:

My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard

Argh, I just lost today’s entry and have had to retype it. Excuse me if that makes me a little grumpy.
The one thing that’s for certain is that I need a new digital Set Top Box. This time, however, I’m researching which one to get, so that we don’t have a repeat of the XMS [...]

I wish I had 4 hands

I said it on the weekend, and I’ll say it again: I think that the only people who can be blamed for the Brisbane Lions not winning the penant for the fourth time is the St Kilda football club, who should’ve beaten the Power convincingly last week, but instead, lost. For shame. :squint:
So, yeah, [...]

AFL Grand Final plans

So, yeah I know this is late, but here I am, and here’s the grandfinal plans for tomorrow:
Basically, people rock up to MY PLACE to watch it on the big screen. BYO drinks. Eat before you come. Some snacks provided. Those going to Stavros’ house warming can go in a group if you want.
Also - [...]

HB2WOO

Callun’s birthday today … many happy returns mate - hope you have a good day.
I’ll be heading round to M&D’s tonight for the birthday dinner, so that’ll be nice. I’ve been working my ass off of late to get finished with work’s new website, which went “live” last night. I’m still stressed beyond belief - [...]

Sopranos is Awesome

If there was a test that you had to pass before you could move on to adulthood, I would’ve failed it ages ago. There are basic things that everyone else takes for granted that I often just forget to do. I frequently forget to brush my teeth before going to bed, and only remember in [...]

Genuine 1979 (or something) prices

I went up to Bribie on Saturday afternoon to go and stay at Grandpa’s place overnight. The drive up was fairly busy, so, it wasn’t particularly enjoyable, but it wasn’t backed up or stopped, which is good.
We went to the Bribie Island Bowls Club (”BIBC” of “the club” from here in) for dinner, and [...]

Holla~11!!11!

Well, things are progressing nicely.
Friday night I’m sure something of note happened. I don’t recall. Oh yeah - I watched the “other” AFL game on television. It was fine.
Saturday, though, that was where the real business was. I’d spent quite a lot of time working on Saturday … for some reason. I’m really keen to [...]

Quote to ponder

I just read this quote from a book about the Hurrican Hunters:
Journalist Edward R. Murrow described Hurricane Edna’s eye in 1954, this way: “In the eye of a hurricane, you learn things other than of a scientific nature. You feel the puniness of man and his works. If a true definition of humility is ever [...]
