I was recently stunned to the depths of my being by an article in a national newspaper earlier this month. The article can be viewed here: http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/lean-times-at-city-restaurants-as-diners-trim-bills-instead-of-eating-at-home/story-e6freuy9-1226051759483 The reason for my negative reaction should become clear after visiting the above link, but to summarise briefly,

Recently here in Sydney we had the Royal Easter show - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sydney_Royal_Easter_Show to know what it's all about. At this show, bags containing all manner of chocolates, lollies, comic books, novelty items, crappy plastic toys and various other things are sold, called 'showbags'. I didn't have the pleasure of going this year as I had to work, but my girlfriend attended

Those of you who weren't born in Australia probably won't understand this post, but suffice to say that Chickadees have returned! No longer limited to a mouthful sized packet you happen to seize from a crap Easter Show showbag! Now available in BOXES at selected supermarkets! Beware: these innocent looking Cheetoh analogues are the closest snack food has ever come to crack. You have been

Picture from last Tuesday at Wasabi Bistro in Darlinghurst. Truly a magnificent sight. It was consumed with great haste - n0m.

Before I begin today's post, I will ask that you open your mind and throw away all preconceived notions of what constitutes sentience and life itself. Done? Good. Today's topic of discussion is something you may already be aware of - The Great Pacific Garbage Patch; also known as the Pacific Trash Vortex (let's stick with the latter, it sounds cooler). If you are not yet aware of this phenomenon

Ok...I know I said I would make an effort to make more entries, but sadly life has gotten quite busy and the blog has once again fallen to the wayside. Chances are it may fall even further to the wayside when I start a psychology degree in May, but I am hoping that the study and the regular writing of essays may kickstart my writer's nature. Stay tuned.

Wow.....here we are more than two years after my original blog posting. So much has happened in my life in the intervening time it doesn't surprise me that I haven't updated this until now. Well, I think I will be starting the blog back up for a number of reasons: A) The myriad thoughts I have still are trapped and need OUT.B) Several friends have recently started blogs, or resurrected inactive

I’ve decided to begin a blog devoted to the many weird, wonderful, twisted, and imaginative ideas, suppositions and philosophies that until now have only existed within my mind. The reason I have embarked upon this dubious venture is thanks to one of the poor souls that has had the fortune (or misfortune) to be ear bashed by the aforementioned content: my friend Kevin. He has incessantly hounded
