There is a lot of pointless hoopla going on today about the Collingwood vs Geelong / Top of the AFL Ladder tonight – much of which is quite tiresome. However, I guess it would have been respectful of the Herald-Sun to have gotten Geelong’s colours right? Don’t Geelong have DARK blue HORIZONTAL stripes, and not [...]

Some manufacturers GPS devices let you add custom voices to direct you to where you are going. TomTom has released a range of Star Wars voices for their devices. Here is Darth Vader during his recording session. Very clever piece of marketing!

Melbourne and much of Victoria is currently cleaning up after a series of massive rainstorms yesterday afternoon/evening. I personally got “heavily saturated” on a couple of occasions heading home from the office – including an entertaining train ride! Melbourne Mops Up After Massive Storm It never ceases to amaze me how stupid some drivers can [...]
