For Tom. Because he reckons I haven’t updated my weblog in ages. (11 days man, what the hell?)

I’m going to South By South West next year. I’m so excited I think I might cry. Aussie web nerds please keep in touch so that we can assimilate Texas, Web Directions stylie.

Moving house was as painful as I’d imagined but well worth it. Unfortunately one of the neighbours is a fruit-cake. They left a letter on my car asking me not to park out the front of their house. It’s neither a permit zone or a busy street, they just don’t like walking too far to their front door apparently.

New Years Day (Eat The Beat) at the Espy will be bigger and better than ever. Action kicks off around 2pm. I’m playing some time around 8pm. Get in touch if you need reduced-price tickets.

I finished work on a soundtrack for a short film. It’s showing at ACMI soon. More details as they come to hand.

Finally, it’s the Critical Mass 11th birthday ride tonight. Bicycle advocates and the environmentally-aware; meet at the State Library at 5:30pm.

It seems like we’ve been talking about this for a long time, but now it’s finally here. Web Directions starts this week. I think there are still tickets available so hop to it! Cam and I will be playing records at the SitePoint party on the final night so pop on by for some beverages and fun times.

So anyway. This helpful fridge-magnet is over 20 years old. If you have a heart-attack and have time to dial only one phone number, do not choose this one, it doesn’t work.

In other news, an old friend sent these to me nearly a year ago now. Totally nerdy. Posting them here has been on my to-do list for a loooong time.
