what elbow ref?
Sunday, October 5th, 2008wow, i knew danny tiato was a thug, but i was gobsmacked when i saw this last weekend.
…and the melbourne player ended up with a yellow!
making me kinda sad
Monday, August 18th, 2008as an australian, can you still support vale rossi, while casey stoner is racing?
i can’t link to any videos and show you any footage (or even interviews) of the laguna seca round because dorna is so tight with the licensing… but anyway… after the race, casey voiced some concerns about rossi’s lines; apparently he was coasting mid to late corner and pushing casey wide intentionally, and then there’s that pass on the corkscrew, crazy, but again, i can’t link to it… and the way rossi behaved post-race… not cool.
so now, to me, the rossi camp has lost a bit of sheen, i guess he never was a gentleman, but none of them are, are they?
then again, casey had a pretty wild temper when he was in 250’s, racing against dani pedrosa… he has to beat rossi on the track, he’s certainly quick enough, just stay rubber side down for the most part.
weird, i used to be neutral about it, not any more.
bribery by sultanas!
Sunday, August 17th, 2008guess i haven’t given you an update on how liam is going in a while, he’s a couple of quick vids we took this afternoon…
part 2…
everyone wants to be tom morello
Sunday, May 25th, 2008seeing as the weather was pretty good yesterday we went to the gardens for a picnic with wendy, shane, sarah and jude… great to get some fresh air and sunshine, i even got told off for kicking a football around (no fun allowed apparently)…
the sarlins have headed off home via canberra now, it’s been cool to have wendy stay… and unbelievably it’s only about 5 weeks till we head north to queensland again!
more web2.0 fluff
Wednesday, May 21st, 2008so i’ve just hit 500 twitter posts!
crazy huh, i’m glad i’m on a capped mobile plan so i don’t have to think about the money that would’ve gone through twitter in more than a year… all in all;
- it’s been fun,
- i’m not that addicted,
- it’s useful for miniblogging,
- i’ve seen some excellent random links,
- the outages don’t really annoy me,
- still no ads, great!
- i’m not that much of a freak!
- mtub peeps are pretty cool.
so yeah, i’ll keep doing it, and encouraging others to, even if i can’t answer the their question “what’s the point?” easily. i guess the thing is not to over-think it. which is hard for me.
updated twitterstats:
in the spirit of random internet stuffs, i have succumbed to the enormous pressure and created a tumblelog…
“wow luke, um, what’s that?”
i’m glad you asked, quoth the wiki:
“…is a variation of a blog that favors short-form, mixed-media posts over the longer editorial posts frequently associated with blogging. Common post formats found on tumblelogs include links, photos, quotes, dialogues, and video. Unlike blogs, tumblelogs are frequently used to share the author’s creations, discoveries, or experiences while providing little or no commentary…”
i’m going to use it to collect and post random interesting stuff i find on the web, but unlike the full-on wordpress style blog, the tumblr will just be a stream of pics, vids, quotes and links… so it’ll be just like my digg favorites, only not. ie, in one place and fully customised…
*poke*
Wednesday, April 30th, 2008so now facebook has live chat… that was sneaky.
for me, facebook is becoming more and more like this video…
i never did get around to emailing everyone, and the longer i leave it, the further away doing that gets… i’m at 172 “friends” now, so now i could just start chatting with these people, but… i find i really don’t have the inclination… maybe i’ll do a drastic prune instead.
sure, facebook keeps recommending people i might know, the majority of these people i “know of”, but really don’t know them well enough in the real world to consider myself their “facebook friend”… the thing is, i’m sure lots of people add these sorts of relationships as “friends”, but why? to appear popular? to broadcast their status to more people? i don’t know. also, did anyone else notice that facebook completely ripped off twitter with the tag line: what are you doing right now?
oh well, in the grand scheme of things, having an unmanagable number of friends isn’t a big deal is it? maybe only for the internet celebrities?
to think, i’ve had more communication with one of my favorite internet show hosts than probably 70% of my facebook friends!
…part 2
Tuesday, February 26th, 2008…ended up falling asleep on the couch on sunday (do you blame me?), not only was i worn out but lost404 was a “kate” episode, BORING… i wish they would just explain how the “oceanic 6″ got off the island and get back to telling the main story line; the present. i’m sick of seeing what is essentially the past, being eeked out, damn.
if i ever want answers i’m addicted to the wrong tv show, huh.
oh yeah, newcastle had another 5 goals put past them on the weekend, terrific. form from the last 5 matches?
2 goals for,
16 goals against,
granted our last 5 opponents were:
arsenal (cup),
arsenal,
‘brough,
‘villa,
man u.
but c’mon! 1 premier league point from a possible 12… it’s not looking good at all. i wish big sam was still around. there, i said it.
good to see another season of bike racing has started again, i haven’t finished watching race 1 yet, so don’t stress about the spoilers… hmm, that said i did see nori have a massive slide and high side after giving max biaggi the finger, classic stuff! (i’ll try to find a youtube vid of it).
happy camper
Tuesday, November 13th, 2007kim managed to get a new video of liam the other day, he even smiles now!
