Finally

I have an appointment to see my GP tomorrow morning at 9:50. I have been trying to get an appointment for two weeks. Still, at least it’s less than 48 hours! Thanks Tony! (sarcasm)

Hot to Trot

Well, lumber. I am minus cast. De-plastercated. Apparently I’ve healed a fractured cuboid in two weeks. This seems fairly astonishing. Certainly the doctors were surprised. Now I have a moon boot. Hence lumbering. I still have to use the crutches … Continue reading

Smart people please tell me

What’s a good book on MacOS X programming? I want to write a QuickTime codec, and frankly, I can’t get the one I’ve got half-finished to work. QuickTime refuses to find it. Please advise.

G3s Make Me Wanna Smoke Crack

Or, if you prefer, the PowerPC 750 processor. Motorola’s no-longer-finest. IBM’s golden child of 1998. No longer so shiny. It’s irritating when you know something is possible on a computer, indeed that you used to achieve it just fine, but … Continue reading

This is terrible

I hurt all over. My working leg and all my arm muscles hurt. I knew my upper body strength was a bit rubbish but I didn’t imagine it was that bad. This is terrible. I don’t know what to do … Continue reading

Oh no, not again.

At Veggie Dave’s party this weekend. I did a silly thing. By ‘silly thing’, I mean ‘attempt to wheelie the old Honda trike’. By ‘attempt to wheelie’, I mean ‘apply a handful of throttle and drop into gear’. The result … Continue reading

Hagfish (was: Rise of the Remora)

Okay, okay. I’ve had enough people inform me of the innocence of the remora, which apparently doesn’t hurt the shark at all. As a consequence, I’ve decided to change the name of this article. Maybe you’ve heard of the hagfish, … Continue reading

Apparently, I’m not perfect

I know, it came as somewhat of a shock to me too. But there it is, in black and white, my vision sucks. Slightly. Enough to give me blinding headaches at all times when I have to use this fucking … Continue reading
