Some days

April 13, 2005

Some days just go wrong. They may start off well, but they descend into the slough of despond as time wears on, everything turning to crap as you touch it. I'm not triskadekaphobic, but I'm getting suspicious. Some days need you to log out and log back in again. Some days need a hard reboot, […]

Cat Buckaroo

April 11, 2005

Trying this with Fflwff could result in broken bones, nerve damage and severe blood loss. Mine, not hers. I may give it a shot, though. Note to readers: Never play Cat Buckaroo with any potentially cat damaging objects, such as bricks, television sets or Collected Works of Shakespeare. (Thanks John!)

There's an axe in my head. (via Joi on IRC)

Happy birthday to hash-me!

April 3, 2005

My IRC channel, so imaginatively named #suwcharman, is celebrating its first birthday today! Happy birthday hash-me!! Spawned from #joiito originally as a place where I could talk to people away from the frenzy of Joi's channel, I never imagined it would actually end up being like a little home away from home where I could […]

Damn cybersquatters, may they get gangrene and rot in this life because I can't wait for them to rot in hell

March 29, 2005

I've been meaning to get a new domain for a while now, so that I can bring all of my webbishness together in one spot. I have blogs, portfolios, Welsh sites, various profiles and footprints and god knows what else out there, scattered across the intarweb, and I thought it was about time I tidied […]

Google knows

March 7, 2005

Go to Google and search on the word 'fuckwit'. I tell you, Google's not a search engine anymore, it's AI… UPDATE: Thanks to John B's comment, I can now reveal that it is, in fact, the power of blogs that has achieved the #1 spot for 'fuckwit' for John Prescott. Maybe we should start on […]

A glimpse of the past

January 30, 2005

I made this about a year and a half ago. Oddly, I still seem to be having trouble with the financial settings, but otherwise I seem to have troubleshot (troubleshooted?) my life quite successfully. Funny how things going horribly wrong can sometimes turn out to be the best thing that ever happened to you.

Remove brain before opening wallet

January 26, 2005

Gullible Americans are spending $299 on a plastic sticker that purports to save petrol and clean exhaust fumes by sending “holographic frequencies into the gas tank and chang[ing] the molecular structure of the gasoline.” Ah, too precious. Cheaper at only $16, but no less full of hogwash, is the Machina Dynamica Golden Sound Intelligent Chip, […]

Links!

January 26, 2005

Just clearing out some tabs whilst I try to wake up: Beach animals! Cool! The Animaris Rhinoceros Transport movie is ace. Chocolate solar system! Yum! (Via BoingBoing.) The Bloggies site is down at the moment, but apparently I was nominated in the Best UK/European Blog category (thanks Betsy!). I believe it is traditional for me […]

Going Underground

January 12, 2005

An understandable reaction to the state of the London Underground. Not even slightly worksafe. (Via GeoffTech, thanks John.)

43 Things

January 10, 2005

There are more than 43 things that I want to do with my life, but it might take me a while to get them all into 43Things. Still you can always grab the RSS feed and see how my list progresses.

How to toilet train a cat

January 3, 2005

It had never previously occurred to me that one could toilet train a cat, but whilst I doubt either of ours would go for it, I can certainly see the sense if you have a younger cat and a small apartment. (Thanks crw!)

A is for…

December 23, 2004

Euan picks up on a meme from Liz Lawley where you type each letter of the alphabet into the address bar of your browser and see what it suggests. It creates a nice little snapshot of recent browsing history, and illustrates just how right Hugh MacLeod was when he called me 'probably the most blog-obsessed […]
