Which is a first.
So here’s the thing people; I was trying to write up an opinion piece on this thought-provoking (if entirely wrong) opinion piece. [Pussyfoot past registration]

I’ve not been slacking, I’ve been busy. Amongst other things, I’ve also been “researching” stuff toward a post (and our not-as-yet dead treatise [PDF]) I’m working on.
Yes people, this is […]

Oh what’s become of this journal? We haven’t delved into the world of reality TV in so long. And for those of you joining us from a parts of the world that don’t know the joys of excessive reality TV, all I can […]

I was at a coffee shop earlier, and I suddenly started smiling uncontrollably. My eye had caught the following headline.

This is a geeky post. Sorry. Maybe if you scroll down really quickly…
I was trying to get some (work related) writing done, when I get an e-mail from the computer support […]

Please check out a small collection of my photos on […]
