RC Helicopters

I have seen a lot of ads over the last few months for of all things rc helicopters. It seems as if they have suddenly dropped in price and they have become for assessable for those of us not willing to pay big bucks. Or that is how it seems anyway. I think I would love to give one a go some time and have a lot of fun.

Should be easier

I was reading an article today online that there is an increasing number of men needing to pay child support when the child isn’t even theirs. But to get paternity checking it is a huge hassle needing to go through the court and treated virtually as a criminal. DNA testing should be easier to get for both parties and for the truth.

Sounds like a nice concept

I have been asked to write about Outer Banks rentals and while it isn’t likely that I will ever get there, it is an idea or perhaps concept that I like. Heading to a nice part of the world, renting or leasing a great beach home sounds like something that I would really like to do. Sit on the beach, soak up some sunshine and maybe even watch some pretty girls

Get less fat

Lately I have been getting out and about bush walking and seeing some of the countryside. But years of working in an office and spending too much time in front of a computer means I have got unfit and am suffering every time I head out. So it is time to do something about it and so I am starting to look at treadmills to get a good workout and start getting a bit more fitness.

Promise to update more often

Ooops i guess i forgot to update for a couple of weeks it seems. That was a little careless of me but life has just been … well not busy but occupied. So in no particular order …

Boyd (the new puppy) is a lovely guy. Affectionate and cute but a little skitzo at times. The problem being after 3 weeks or so he and Grissom are still not getting on well. If that doesn’t change then his days are numbered as it will be back to the home

Work. Work is busy, work is weird. I am still busily working on what seems to be the demise of my own job. It seems strange i know but at the end of the day it looks like the best thing for the workplace.

Other than that, not a lot of news. I have been out and about over the last couple of weekends in various places and i even did EXERCISE. Oh the horror and the humanity. And the sore muscles the next day too now that i think about it too. But some really beautiful scenery and lots of photographs on top of that too.

Promise to update more often!

Not as Clear

I was thinking that I need a new pair of eyeglasses. I have had my current set for a while now and over time my eyes have changed a little so that they are not quite as sharp as they once were. It isn’t that noticeable for the most part, just looking at longer distances mainly with things not being quite as clear as they once were.

Long time no update

Wow long time no update hey but at least i have kept the daily photoblogs updating. Things here have been a little busy with work being totally mad and then on top of that being home i have had the “joy”of the new puppy coming hoe. Boyd is a lovely little fellow but is a little odd as at times for no reason he will skip and other times just start barking for no real reason. And then there has been the lack of sleep with barking from early in the morning which has meant my whole sleep pattern has been changed to accommodate early mornings.

Its a bit hard to read how my other dog Grissom. I think he is enjoying having the company (which is what my aim was) but i think he gets tired of the puppy at times, especially when it wants to play and run around - he just looks confuesed and bemused

Hooked already

I just watched the first episode of Jekyll and what can i say, its so freakingly different and i can’t help but be drawn to it. The first episode was impressive to say the least as it follows Tom Jackman, the modern day decendant of the real life Dr Jekyll.

Now here is where it gets interesting. Tom Jackman is a mild mannered family man with two kids who discovers that he is sharing his body with a dark side, a charming and dangerous Mr Hyde who has super human speed and strength.

A great pick for the free dvd from a buy 2, get one free offer.

Great Coverage

Here i am trying to get coverage of the womens sprint or even the womens basketball and despite channel 7 being the main broadcaster, sbs a complementary broadcaster and abc with coverage on the radio. Instead i am reduced to reading the commentary in a chat room.

I hate you channel 7

So far, its good

Well here we are well into the Olympics and i don’t know about anywhere else but watching the games here in Australia you could be just about mistaken for not realising that there was much going on other than swimming going on. Even more so the event has for us Aussies been dominated by the great performance of Stephanie Rice who has won two individual gold medals and another gold for relay gold with all three in world record time. Until these games i had only seen the media circus surrounding her and her ex boyfriend Eamon Sullivan so it is pleasing to discover that she is so down to earth and a pleasure to listen to.

For me I more a fan of other sports and in particular the basketball, hockey and football which has been a challenge, the coverage is revolving around the swimming, diving and gymnastics. Sadly Australia is out of the soccer and on the way out of mens basketball so i just got to pin my viewing hopes on the Opals, Australia’s womens basketball team and our hockey teams!

Oh and one other thing. Comme On Aussie!
