Blog Wars III v 1.02 – Thunderdome Verdict

Thursday, July 21st, 2005

My last “live” post for a month. It’s official! I have lost my Blog Thunderdome battle and I’ve now been banned from posting for a month. It was supposed to be a two month ban but the judges capitulated and reduced it down to one. It was the right decision to ban me based on [...]

Wednesday, July 20th, 2005

Whether you’re a guy or a girl you can never underestimate the value of a “translator”. These wonderful and truly gifted people make your life a hell of a lot more easy and can help explain to you the secrets of the opposite sex – thus saving you a heck of a lot of time [...]

Don’t Drink And Porn….

Monday, July 18th, 2005

…..Or “How to get rat-faced and make an ass of yourself without even really trying”. Year’s and years ago now – back when I used to look like this – I helped “organize” a bucks party for a friend of mine, Enzo. Now while it wasn’t quite like “Bachelor Party” (classic 80′s film featuring a [...]

Sunday – A Very Uneventful Post

Sunday, July 17th, 2005

My weekend was a bit “Twilight Zone-y” this week. Nothing much out of the ordinary, per se’, but the “ordinary” things I did weren’t with the same people I’d normally do them with…..if that makes sense at all? I started off by going to my parents house on Saturday. My mum is visiting with friends [...]

Feeeeed Me!!

Saturday, July 16th, 2005

I’ve found out what’s been happening with my WordPress feeds – SWEET NOTHIN! I mean sometimes they update, but most times they don’t. No wonder my FeedBurner stats read 0-1-0-2-0-2-0-2-0-3-0-2 users all the time! To FeedBurner, and the people who have had the “misfortune” to subscribe to me through there, this is virtually a DEAD [...]

Not One, But Two…

Friday, July 15th, 2005

Two blog reviews that is… The first one you may already know about (well, if you’ve been reading this blog in the last week you WILL know about it) and that is the battle/review over at Maximum Awesome known as Blog Thunderdome. I should probably add that if anyone from here wants to “vote” for [...]

My Music – The Tide

Wednesday, July 13th, 2005

Continuing on from yesterday, and it’s slightly musical theme, I’ve finally got some of my own music organized and transferred to MP3 (again). This time it’s on two different computers as well as a separate external hard drive so, hopefully, I won’t lose them again (like I did when I lost my hard drive). I [...]

Coming Up On E.T…….

Tuesday, July 12th, 2005

Yes, I’ve accidentally watched Entertainment Tonight again – or rather listened to it from the kitchen while I was making lunch – and I found out about this whole “search for a lead singer for INXS” reality TV show that’s starting tonight or tomorrow in the States. I knew there was some sort of competition [...]

“We’ve Gone On Holiday By Mistake”…

Monday, July 11th, 2005

….To quote REG from “Withnail And I”. Apologies for not posting for a couple of days but I’ve been busy with other “real world” matters. I should warn you that I may be going on an even longer (two month) holiday if the blog doesn’t fair well in the Blog Thunderdome over the next week [...]

Blog Wars III – Beyond Thunderdome?

Thursday, July 7th, 2005

Is it the ultimate battle arena? Are the stakes just too high? Do you have to be crazy to even consider entering into this bout? Two blogs enter. One blog leaves! It’s full steam ahead for the Blog Thunderdome! Holy crap it’s getting hot in here! There’s a new “Bad Boy” in town and this [...]
