My mistake

Apparently I meant that you win 20 points. Not my respect. Fair swop in my books.

Essential Poker Tools

Courtesy of A. Pizza Box. Also please note that I used caps in the title for the first time in oh I don't know probably ages. Also Jewness says he thinks there must be a website devoted to things you could do with these little pizza box tables. First one to find it and post it in a comment to this blog entry wins my respect. Or something. Creating the site for yourself also counts.

go north. look. get aluminum tube.

Genius. And if you really love it, you can buy the shirt

notice served

You will notice that I'm one of the more frequent bloggers in my circle of friends. Two of the more notable exceptions being Dave, Kels (who I've mentioned twice in a week now) and whoever I forgot (so there can be no complaining).

I've discussed this with a couple of the people I'm forever hassling about not posting recently so I thought I'd chat about it here. Apparently they get het up with worries of what to post or thoughts of unbotheredness. I'm not like them in two respects. Firstly I can usually be bothered because it gets the swill out of here and out into the real world. Second of all, I'm well aware that a big portion of what I write here is garbage but I've got so used it that I just don't care. And every once in a while I'll come up with a gem (even though someone else probably did it first and better).

Plus I actually find myself quite entertaining when I read back through my archives. And I give hope to the world by allowing you all to think "it could be worse I could be him".

All of which is to say..

Goodnite essentially.

overandoutttt

there's more

It's like a fly horror film round this place at the moment. Everywhere I look there's either a fly or a mayfly or a somethingsomething fly stuck in a web being harrangued by a spider. I actually accidentally flicked a fly straight into a web on Sunday as well.

Also, I really don't know what's going on with titles these days. They're quite hard to come up with a lot of the time.

I think I'm actually done for today now.

Stay tuned

thoughts

As I was jogging home I got to thinking. It does happen sometimes.

It was triggered because I saw a road and I thought, "I've never seen a car going into that road". There are so many things to see and we think so much about places we haven't seen or events we haven't witnessed or experienced but right under our noses we also haven't seen the most mundane of things.

I don't really know where I'm going with this to be honest. I guess I think I might be trying to say something like there's too much to see anyway so just enjoy what you do. But just more coherently than that. Mmmkay?

Oh, Kels got engaged. HUZZAH! Would that I could get to Aussie for the wedding. Maybe we'll be touring there to coincide with it or something. Heh. Mebbe.

trenchant observation!

There have been a lot of pictures lately.

Yup yup. Good day. Good times.

Come back tomorrow for the supporting cast.

That line was broken

Seriously. You wish you were me.

Still want to live there..

Almost a year on. If this one gets through let me tell you there should be at least two more posts today. Stupid moblogging.

Send out your warg riders

We're well into Two Towers now. I don't know why Anwar suddenly feels the need to straighten his hair. I hope all of these posts get through. They've not been too reliable recently. I'll sort them all out at the end.

Still funny

Didn't quite get it to his nose but it looks like he's smelling my finger. I'm a child.

Scary!

And what is it that's scary? The balrog? Sauron? The Witch King of Angmar? Nope. Bilbo!

It has beginned

Actually we started at 9.30. Woo. We'll be finishing around 10.30 tonite. Lovely.

Happy Birthday Baggins'

Hey I'm a Rings Geek. Who knew.

Tomorrow. Expect some blogging during the day. And how.

Foop-ball tonite. Yes.

Oh and I'm currently blogging from the front room. On the projector screen. It's weird. Like cinematic blogging. You can see from the picture.

Abrupt end

A Cheery Metaphor

This world is full of people who feel they have a god-given, undisputed, unpunishable right to park on double yellow lines if it makes their lives more convenient. This world is also full of people who will brim over with rage if it takes an extra few minutes to get somewhere when the road is being obstructed.

These are often the same people.

I can't believe I forgot

DO YOU KNOW WHAT DAY IT IS THIS SATURDAY?!?

It's Lord of the Rings Day. That's where we watch all three extended films. BACK TO FRIKKIN' BACK. Oh I can't wait. DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH FUN WE HAD LAST TIME?

Well.. It was a lot. Yup yup.

Gotta go.

living in the future

For some reason my phone thought it was the 21st. I can't figure out how long it has been like that. Slightly confusing. Although tomorrow was fun whilst it lasted.

Sorry for the blurry quality of the photo last nite. It won't happen again. I hope.

Cant AR berry

Bobcat goes to uni now. He's a big boy now.

top that!

So furious is my rage that I fear my very heart may leap from my body and pummel those scoundrels on its own volition, leaving my body a convulsing membrane of regret!

Would that I could say that I made that up, but alas, Jeff did

too much too much

Which means I must sleep.

Look for me tomorrow. I will be the one with blurry eyes.

ONE MORE QUICK POST BEFORE BED

THE POST JUST BELOW IS LYING!!!

I POSTED AT 3.37. NOT 3.07.

A SMALL BUT IMPORTANT POINT.

NOW I'M GOING.

WHAT DOES CAPS LOCK MEAN?

trying not to use "now" in my title

I could explain but I'm not going to.

Did you know that once again it's too late. Always with the too late. Tonite's excuse was that Louisa is 18. Yup yup.

Right. Anyway. Coherent and brilliant blogging. Coming right up. Somewhere else in the real world. But not here.. Not here.

Here's a few things for you..

• Apple have released the latest version of iTunes. I'm sure it's all singing and quite possibly all dancing but here's the thing. It seems to me that before the interface was perfectly lovely, but for all the world it looks like someone said "make it look a bit different would you?". Which again I have no specific beef with. I mean, I like the new look. But changing the color of the quavers on the program icon? Well that smacks of something to me. I don't know what, but there you go.


• Minority by Green Day and Gray Matters by The Miscellaeous - Great songs.


• I never posted on 04/05/06 at 01:02:03 English date system. I just realised


• The more astute amongst you (yeah I know.. as if) will have noticed a small technorati logo down below. I'm not going to go into what that is, after all, you can click on a freekin' link, but regardless, you will find a link that says blogs that link here. Now according to Technorati, I (as in me) am the only blog that links to my blog. That means that a. I'm sad (which we knew - why else am I here right now) b. You all need to register with Technorati and get linkin' to me. You know I link to freeken everybody like ever.


• I think Matt might have gone mental or something


• Pretty much all this is these days is an exciting game to see what the weirdest phrase someone can search for on Google and end up here is. So far I think 'how to work a time machine' wins, although 'horsefly bites' has been my most prolific provider of random people.

I'm about done now. Except to tell you that when I first started this I thought, "no way am I going past 3ish". Oh dear.

Outandover.

4 years

I thank you!

And also.. holey sheet

See?

Some text would go here if I could be bothered

thunderin' lightnin'

It's raining. And lightninging. And Thunderingening.

I love it.

That's it.

an interesting twist..

So following on from the whole horsefly bite débâcle that I'm sure you've been following OH SO CLOSELY, I've now got some weirdass rash/red line going all the way up my arm from what definitely wasn't a horsefly but I'm having a guess at it being a mosquito. What FUN!

Anyways. My arm has swollen up. And I have a long red line. See the pictures? The bite is on the top forearm in the first picture. And that line goes all the way up to my armpit. Lovely.

So! I'm off to hospital now. "To be on the safe side." I really loathe hospitals. Especially at nite. Laters!

Overandout..

dust and sparkle

well well. Finally managed to actually score some runs. And stop the other team from winning the league. Scroll down for the match report New Ash Green vs Old Williamsonians. I never realised cricket was actually that exhausting if you stay in for more than a few balls. I was in for 11 overs which is a personal best, and I scored 8. Which is 7 more than I've ever scored.

Boring, but important. Well. Not so much important as irrelevant. But that won't stop me. It never has.

I normally don't mark things like this (more due to forgetting and realising two or three days later that I missed them) but my hat is clutched to my chest for the 9/11 victims. Peace.

toast and marmite

It's the freakin' weekend baby! Today I am mostly with bedhead. I'm going to wear my hair like this all day even when I go to THE Kathy's party. I am the man.

Ever since El and I got these phones
it seems everyone and their dog is getting them. My brother got one, now my mother has one. El's brother is getting one and his fiancée and El's sister also both want one. Crazy crazy crazy times.

Oh gosh there was a bunch of stuffs that I was about to tell you but my brain emptied. Hopefully today we'll be getting a new amp and new video so we can watch things again. I don't miss TV one bit since I haven't had it (which has been 6 years with a 5 month lapse when we were living at LYND-ONS), but two weeks without DVDs has been unpleasant. Product of my generation and so on. It sounds lame but it could be lamer I could be addicted to THE DEVIL. I mean TV.

I miss the days where I'd just post random phrases. I should revert.

Oh that's what I was going to say. Horsefly bites. It seems that a LOT of people are still turning up here looking for information. No news for you really. Except to say that although I was bitten back in July I still have a faint mark and sometimes it comes up all itchy. Like the day before yesterday. Perhaps it's going to be one of those things I will have forever and when I'm old I will say things like "well it looks like the weather's turning, my horsefly bite scar is playing up chronically". I have to say, that'd be pretty sweet.

Overandout.

We've been walking barefoot

Brilliant

You may not think so, but I don't care. This is funniness.

You can see the rest of the story here. I like Scarygoround. It's delightful.

I just noticed the blogging community down amongst my old pals in Brighton is getting pretty big now. Weird how these things take off. Dave's got a list of most of them on his sidebar. I'd join in but I can't stand Xanga. Mind you, some people probly say that aboot Blogger. If you've made it here from the XANGA BRIGHTON TOBY'S PALS GROUP all I can say to you good sir or good madam is.. Hello. Have a delightful day.

That goes for the rest of you too. And the rest of U2.

Overoutand

working at home are for stupid

I don't know how my dad spends every day of his life working at home. I am CARP at doing it. I can't concentrate. I'm lame. WAH! WAH! WUH-AHHHHHH!!!!

Ahem. 10 of 12 tracks on our album have received their mixes (UPDATE 16:42 - Make that 11 of 12). Just two more and some tweaking, then some mastering and we'll have an album. YAY!

Check this out. I find it curiously hypnotic.

What else? Oh yeah, Open Mic tonite. Hopefully it will be a good one.

BYE

TOBY

cheekiness

Apparently mumsy's got nothing better to do

oh hey you

Oh blog of my blogs. Internet carpery of my internet carperies.

How has been tricks in la-la-land? I've neglected the real world for a couple of days and now I find it tugging on my heartstrings and I must note down my thoughts and send them off to join the blogosphere. Oh happy blogger this is thy sheath!

Um. Yup. Well in any case. The new job is not at all bad. There is a lot to be done. The photocopying it needs me! Plus my room is all of hot. Yowzer. The sweat pours. And plus I've runandwalkedquitealot home on both days. Gosh!

Design work is ongoing. Muse is uplifting. Brain is reshifting. Now I am detaching.

overandout..

design and illustration

Today I have been doing all sorts of graphical wizardry. Including this. Hopefully you can see what this is. Or my name's not JOE DESIGNER KING OF THE DESIGNORSORZ!

Which it isn't. But you can. It doesn't make much more sense to me either.

Now riddle me this. I start a new job tomorrow. And yet I'm still up.

There's a solution to help things from getting any worse. And I'ma put it into action..

OPERATION SHUTEYE.

Word

It is altogether too late

Ok I'm admit this isn't my best photo ever but the time of day is against me here. I must say this might be why I'm losing at poker. Well anyway. See you tomorrow. Uhm.. Later today in fact.

good value for money

I have to say, those chaps and chappesses at Apple really are delightful. You see I got another sad faced iPod a bare 4 months after my last replacement. Sadly it was already past it's warranty, but with a little persuasion from El and CONSUMER RIGHTS I have another replacement. YAY!

More foop-ball and poker tonite. Today I am working though. On design things. Yar. Better get on actually..
