I am not a philosopher

The point of philosophy is to start with something so simple as not to seem worth stating, and to end with something so paradoxical that no one will believe it.

- Bertrand Russell

Ooh la la!

Mr Darcy

Apparently 8 out of 10 women would prefer to spend the night with Mr Darcy than Brad Pitt, but obviously not with a guy from the Chaser pretending to be Mr Darcy...

Alas, poor Alex.


This is sad. Alex was a cool parrot. We watched videos of him in philosophy classes on cognitive science. While he might be able to say more words than my darling Mate, he's not nearly as cute. Cool, but not as lovely as my little Matey-bird.

Hmm...



Which Friends Character Are You?

You are Ross. You're intelligent and adored by your parents. However, your lack of social skills causes you to talk too much and try too hard. While your friends pick on you for your nerdiness, they better watch our for your rage.

Nice photo

I hope Matt doesn't mind this being online...


Much better than Mr Darcy!

I wish I had a spare couple of grand...

Hello, my name is spam

I get a huge amount of junk email - sometimes amusing, sometimes incomprehensible. I thought these names were worth recording on here:

  • Aquaplane T. Forging
  • Eiderdown P. Beret

Am I really supposed to believe that these are real people?!

Awww...

Liz, Lara & Donna



This is me at Donna's 21st. Wasn't I cute when I was 21? I look good. The scary thing is that I probably thought I was overweight back then, but I look a lot better than I do now. I still have that outfit - no way it would fit me at the moment. I want to get back to looking like that, though perhaps without the fringe...

Shut up and drive


Catchy song, but somehow I don't think Rihanna is actually talking about driving...

Brooke Fraser rocks!


I'll write about the concert sometime soon (I hope!) but in the meantime, check out the video of her song Albertine.
