I was in Kinokuniya last night stocking up on comic books when I noticed they had a big poster up for International Talk Like a Pirate Day. Huh? Since when does an Internet joke become an actual holiday that is celebrated by businesses in meatspace? It’s perplexing. I’m just waiting for the big poster in Coles next February advertising Steak and BJ Day.

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
