Mixing Metaphors

Don’t forget today is the official Firefox Download Day as they try to set a new world record. Its actually wednesday here rather than the day since i couldn’t download it yesterday but thanks to the wonder of timezones there is still time. Get it while it is hot!

So i got the chance to watch the mid season finale of Battlestar Galactica tonight. I’ll try not to drop too many spoilers into this post but it was a jam packed episode with a rather suprising conclusion. I was disappointed as the pace could have been a little slower to savour some of the [...]

Brrr its cold here today. My fingers are chilled and the day outside is even colder with an annoying mist hanging around and I am thinking that it is going to be an even colder night tonight. Last night i took pity on the dog and let him stay inside which accounted for a bad [...]

I just took the pledge. No, not that one, the one to download Firefox during download day and help to set a new world record for the most software downloads in 24 hours. For my own region (Australia) i was pledge 3,535 although technically i should have two since i will download it twice with [...]
