Ian Thorpe - Aids? Discuss

Hello peeps - and a very special welcome to those reading my blog for the first time, dragged in by the catchy title fo this post.

I had a great weekend, all things considered: Friday night I hit up Glara’s for dinner, which was cool, and then we watched football/CNNNN/Ali G until it was time to go home. Saturday I fixed my cousin Angela’s computer, and then visited M&D’s and went to Bunnings with Woo to get some pipe. Saturday night Glenn came over and played some poker with his account. It was fun, but highlighted the fact that we need another computer set-up here to allow for three players to play at once.

Sunday, no SLC because Glara had a breakfast engagement, and Brek were out of town on a lovely romantic getaway with Brett’s parents. :teehee: Still, Glara were invited to come over for a bit on their way home, which they did, although I did sleep too long to be up bright and early when they got there. Oops. Performing PC’s engagement was that afternoon, and I had some chores to run on the way home. I had long promised myself Noodle Box for late lunch Sunday, and I got that. Also, I picked up some motchi from Sushi Train and some Starbuck’s gift cards for Lisa in America.

Did anyone watch the football on Sunday? That was disappointing. The cricket also sounded super exciting, and can you believe the result? OMG. My tip to Glenn paid off, I hope you got money in on that, Glenn. Formula 1 was also on last night, so I stayed up with Blacky to watch. Good race, plenty of close overtaking, moderately predicatble result, although Raikonnen and Rosberg did well especially.

Got a lot to do, no time to dilly dallly. 24 tonight for those that can make it.

    I wonder if the PSP would work as the third machine? I haven’t tried logging in to any secure sites yet, but it’s worth a shot.

    I didn’t bet on the cricket. One of my greatest assets with sports betting is my willpower in restricting the number of events I bet on i.e. waiting until I think there’s a sure thing at a reasonable price. If only I had the same willpower when betting on the ponies….

    Ian Thorpe retired today. Oprahs show today featured Magic Johnson. He quit once he found out he had Aids.
