Various catch ups
While mum and dad visiting was HUGE (and there are some great blog posts coming up about that…!) another thing that has been great is there has been some other visits from people back in Oz to New York! Leigh, one of my pals from my days of Parliament and fellow USA devotee, visited New…
Let’s start at the very beginning
I’ve decided to have somewhat of a blogathon and catch up on the past say… 6 months. If you follow my Twitter, you may not feel as left in the dark than if you just rely on my blog. So I shall start at Christmas (!!!! – DO NOT LAUGH!! ) and then chuck in…

Oh dear – what was planned as a busy busy Friday night and Saturday morning only 50% eventuated. This blog is a little bit of a rant. Sorry in advance! Nerves had set in all day about the Collingwood game, so Kevin Devine was going to be a good excuse to get my mind off…
This American Hipster
Home from the This American Life broadcast and it was fantastic. We all know of my disdain for the Williamsburg-I’m-so-cool-I’m-an-icecube congregations that infiltrate many places around the city… but this was just too good to be true. Specimen 1 – Hipster type using a laptop IN the cinema. Photographic proof? Below.
Tonight…
We are off to see This American Life – Live! It is a radio show on NPR – except tonight they are broadcasting live to cinemas in HD around the country! Should be a good night and a nice lead in to what is going to be a busy weekend. Also – look what went…
