About Me

INVENTOR AND CHIEF ADVOCATE OF THE EIGHT YEAR DEGREE!

I live in Wellington, New Zealand. Lived here all my life, 'cept for four years in Dunedin 2003-2006, which were the best! Work at Payserve doing teacher's payroll ... fun times.

As for me, people always say I'm quiet, funny ... hmm, that's about it. I like to sleep, it is my favourite activity.

As well as the eight year degree, I also invented the word PSH ... but no-one believes me.

I need to use both hands to write even remotely tidily. Does anyone else write with two hands? Contact me, we need to unite!

At one stage in my life I went 12 years without eating a banana.

HAVE NEVER FAINTED!!!

Wheel of Fortune update - part 2

Movie come-on

One night when I was in Dunedin I went to see Lost in Translation at the movies - solo! Couldn't be bothered to ask anyone to come with me. I went to the Rialto and took my seat in the main cinema (no...

2007 IN REVIEW

Well as the end of the year nears, and as I am extremely bored tonight, it is time to look back upon the controversy-ridden, enlightening and memorable year that was 2007. Like a seedy old man down an...

Random musings

Why are there so many cubicles in the airport toilets? You get off the plane which is equipped with one toilet for 200 people, to the airport which has about 200 cubicles and can take the whole planel...

The injuries of James

I have had three injuries that really hurt in my time on this planet. The first I think I have mentioned before here - a sprained ankle sustained playing basketball with my brother - which hurt for mo...

The great laptop dilemma

Well this fun tale took place in my one year at Otago University, in 2006. After making a rather ignominious exit from teacher's college, it was a pretty good year, I must say. Highlights included wat...

The Great Pretender

Some people might remember this from when it happened, but oh well. You can't please all of the people all of the time. In fact you can't even please one person all of the time. Come to think of it, I...

Handling it like a man

Dick Smith's ... I will be honest here and say I dislike the man. Those big nerdy glasses, the unconvincing smile ... and what in hell's name did he ever do to David Reid, I ask you? David disappeared...
