Snookums pointed me to these really awesome photos of the storm we had in Sydney earlier this week.

So wait a second… If Telstra is part-owned by the government, and Telstra sells porn, that means it’s really the government that’s selling the porn!

Festive Knit Vomit
When Mel sends me a link, I have to click on it carefully. I mean, this is the girl who finds some of the most filthy stuff on the Internet the HEIGHT OF HILARITY. So it was with trepidation today that I clicked over to this site… and found myself disgusted in a whole new way. Thanks, Mel.

Random Stripe Generator. I just found this on Ravelry this morning, and it’s AWESOME. Great for knitters, and probably for lots of other artsy-craftsy activities.

I’d have to say that this is just about the best LOLCAT pic I’ve seen in a while. I like the fact that it takes you a second to get the joke. I find that much cleverer that the ones that spell everything out. (“WHERE DAT RODERUNNER GONE?”)

People often get quite astonished when they see me knitting two socks at once. I wonder what they’d make of this lady?

I’ve been reading Todd Klein‘s blog for a while now. He’s been a letterer in the comics industry for thirty years, and his site is really entertaining for anybody who likes design and text. He’s just announced that he and Alan Moore have collaborated on a special one-off print: Alphabets of Desire. I enjoyed the story of how it came about, but I’m thinking, “Greeeeat. How many hundreds of dollars is this gonna cost?” So I clicked over to his shop page. $16. And postage is another $4. I placed my order immediately. Hooray! I bought some art for the house!

Graphical interpretations of rap lyrics. Some of these are really funny, and some are just mystifying because me? Not a huge rap connoisseur. This one is totally my favorite though. (Link courtesy of Eileen.)

Isn’t it always the way? You sit down to dinner, and somebody turns up with a piano.

Later: Did you know that it’s physically possible for two guys to physically carry a piano? I didn’t. I honestly thought that a piano – even an upright – weighed like a thousand pounds. So it was with great excitement and glee that I watched as two of the most Ocker guys I’ve ever seen maneuvered a piano up our front steps and into the dining room. (You’ll probably be able to see it in the distance on CouchCam in the morning.) Now all we have to do is get it tuned and the Snook will be able to give Darren a run for his money. (Thanks to Ma and Pa Snook for arranging for it to be sent down!)
