Lostathon!

November 26th, 2005

I just got back from my first experimental partyish thing. The premise was to not make alcohol the not purpose or motivation for the gathering or the distraction. The reason was Lost, I invited Rob, Aisha and Natti to come along and watch the remainding episodes of season 1 whilst I provided food and drinks […]


First Bike

November 24th, 2005

Another case of good news/ bad news is what today’s article is about. The good news: I purchased my first motorcycle today, A 3 year old Honda CG125 in blue. It is not the bike of my dreams, I have not yet ridden it, I’ve not even sat on it, however I am the owner; […]


DSMT Platform – Benchmarking

November 22nd, 2005

Today, we were to test our platforms to the load of 100N. Our platform being one of the lightest was near to last to be tested. A lot of tension was in the air, having seen some decent designs fail before us we were a little apprehensive about testing ours. Obviously, no comiserations were needed […]

Identity Issues

November 14th, 2005

I feel strongly about how people mis-lable themselves and expect you to believe them (…much like banage below). Why should we expect a self proclamation to be true?

Natti keeps telling me that I have a really pretty helmet. So I deceded to share my helmet off to the rest of the world. Here ya go: As you can see, it is an Airoh helmet, Firefox to be precise. The goggles are Oakley O goggles…. and the whole lot is awesome! The ventilation […]


a-v0id Society too!

November 10th, 2005

Having had another moronic salesman come to my door today, trying to entice me into joining a packaged telephone saving scheme that could save me heaps of money by moving yet again, I have formulated a new: “No!
