If I keep doing this, one day you’ll stop coming back.
Anyway, what could draw me back to the world of the blog so vehemently?

This is a piece in The Register describing how various nationalities saw the Zidane incident with accompanying video for each view.
Also, here at the office we were reminiscing about “Terrible” Terry Tate - […]

From The Herald Sun:

I really am quite angry. I went back to add a new piece of information to the last post and saw that WordPress had eaten half of the post. I lost over 800 words, and because the site is hosted remotely, none of my caching or archival software has retained it. As the commentor can […]

I was in Alexandria twice yesterday, once to pick up a car and once to play soccer with comedy guys - Matt, Steve, Rory, Ryan, Jeff, Kojo, Fred, and Lance. Those guys are in great shape. The game was a lot of fun. End of segment.

Well well well, I guess a few people do read this thing.
