I’m in the rare position of being able to pat myself on the back today. You should try it — it’s a good stretching exercise. Leaving that aside, my particular warm inner glow comes today courtesy of what happened on Saturday night. We were just getting ready to settle the kids down to sleep when […]
CNET.com.au’s got another set of reviews written by yours truly up. One of them even has the rare distinction of being the only review I’ve written (so far) in Broken Hill… Mio DigiWalker 269+: Mio’s Digiwalker 269+ carries an impressive set of specifications, but fails to excel in any particular area.

Whew… I just drove in, having done some 4,000 odd kilometres over the last week and a half. Wish I’d remembered the car… (b’doom tish) Trip report later, but in the meantime, the tide of the presses knows no satiety.

Nestec, part of the Nestlé empire in Switzerland, has filed patents in every major market round the world on a “fermented coffee beverage” that pours and foams like beer, but smells of

3DAvenue.com has one of my PSP reviews up, specifically my review of Medievil for PSP: “On the other hand, the original PSOne title, while lacking the cut scenes, tepid minigames and superlative Tom Baker, goes for around ten bucks on eBay…” Meanwhile, I’m busy working out how best I can help my best mate, whose
