I choose to begin now

After many an evening spent talking crap - to be honest i do not restrict my bullshit to evenings as those who know me will agree - i have decided to take the next step and put fingers to keyboard.

The purpose of this page is to let the world know what i am doing/thinking/eating whenever the whim takes me. Sure i could just call people up and advise them such things but i am lazy at communicating at the best of times. While some may think that it is hypocritical to say that i am lazy and point out that if i were truly too lazy to communicate then i would not do the blog in the first place. I look at it logically - i spend 15 minutes typing crap and then email all and sundry about it and everyone is up to date - with one small click of the publish button i can reach all and get back to being lazy. The internet is the lazy persons perfect medium for communication - maximum exposure, minimal effort!

Given the current climate in our great city i must address the inevitable - Socceroos. As a long time soccer player (still getting used to the football re-brand) and supporter of the game I am super happy that our boys stood up for themselves and really put on some quality - and at times physical - football. With years of watching our national team play the beautiful game far from beautifully, it was emotional to see our boys not only notch a win onto our world cup scorecard but get through to the round of 16. Well done you footballroos and i trust that this will be the start of our football glory.


For all those who hoped on the bandwagon make yourself comfortable because, as Old Blue Eyes puts it, the best is yet to come.
