  1. I know the feeling. My kid was once stuck in the school bay all day because I was up in the top paddock with no phone reception. One year the eldest returned from camp a hour earlier than I thought they were supposed to. I was ready to pick her up from the station at 4pm, they got in on the 3pm train. Her teacher rang me at 3:20 just as I was leaving the house thinking I'd be right on time. Instead I was a hour late and I had a pissed off kid and teacher to deal with. Apparently the return slip did say 3pm but I for some reason thought it was 4pm. That was a decade ago and I still cop shit for it even though the same kid has run me late heaps of times since.
  2. Far away from home. 40 minutes away. Hehehe That's a drive to the shops for me.
  3. Cannibal Corpse - Chaos Horrific
  4. I opened a bottle of Russell's Reserve 13 Year Old on the weekend. First bottle of anything stronger than ginger beer that I've opened in about 8 months.
  5. Never make the mistake of thinking there is anything more to a comment of mine that it says. Smart arse. Dumb arse. The only thing I don't do is bare arse!
  6. Bah! It's a bloody everything day today. Start out cooking a ham, then I've got some painting to do, then I have to cut the grass around the house, then I have some gardening to do, then I have to weld up a new frame for another solar panel. Days like this annoy me, I much prefer days with only one or two jobs to do for the whole day.
  7. Just imagine the reaction if we weren't paying the guy a compliment!!!
  8. Nah, you don't need conversion therapy. Some of the shit GG listens to is definitely worth listening to, more so than some of the pretend goat sniffers. Just because he listens to some unlistenable shit at times doesn't mean there aren't some gems in his collection. But full conversion therapy, along with the frontal lobotomy and the anal probe just isn't worth it.
  9. See what happens when you start listening to BM. You start making silly mistakes...like recommending it to others.
  10. Not embarrassed to say you like them but too embarrassed to admit they are your favourite band.
  11. That's what BM listeners claim but most of them have never even seen a goat let alone actually know what the smell like.
  12. You must love your Callboys, you've mentioned them a lot over the past year. Memoriam - War Rages On
  13. Chris Poland is having a Metallica Moment in the press at the moment. Making claims that he forgot about Peace Sells as soon as he heard Master Of Puppets.
  14. Just don't be suckered into that BM stuff, it's bad, it's terrible, it will make you smell like a rotting pig. You're better off listening to Nu-Metal than you are BM, it's a disease!!
  15. I generally ignore genres and therefore often get told I mis-genre bands. It's a deliberate thing because I don't care. I know what I like and I listen to it and if that means I call a band thrash when everyone else wants to call then technical-proto-ambient-darkened-black thrash then so be it. I've always been into bands like Buffalo, Orang-Utan and Wishbone Ash but to me they've always just been 70's bands. I go through stages where I listen to a wide range of that stuff and it seems to me after listening to Heroes, Saints And Fools, Saracen fit into that category. Generally I do think some of these older bands who have had big breaks between their classic albums and their later releases, have lost something in the years they haven't been active but I'll still give Saracen a listen.
  16. It's not a real BBQ without mozzies
  17. I like that, but then I like a lot of 60's and 70's style which I wont call Heavy Metal because someone will say it's not. I hadn't heard them before but I think I'll check them out when I'm done with my end of year list.
  18. Simple things are often the best. When my kids were growing up I used to have a constant battle with one of them being a bit picky. I spent ages trying to find the right balance for her and more often than not it was the three or four ingredient type meals that she'd want again. I do a lot of Asian cooking these days and even I know some of them don't turn out the greatest but the wife and I are usually willing to try just about any creation. The one thing I don't do, which goes against the whole bogan Aussie image, is BBQ's. I don't mind if someone else does one but I don't even own a BBQ now.

    Gaming

    These days my gaming PC is getting too old to be useful so it's mainly used as a file server. I used to do LAN parties and the like in the late 80's and 90's, then they moved into LAN gaming parties with games like Doom and Duke Nukem. But when Warcraft went mainly online I stopped playing all but the older games. I even went back to old DOS games, the kind with block characters and a massive 16 colours! A decade or so ago I spent a lot of time playing simulators, Flight Sim, X-Plane, Truck Sim, Farming Sim, Racing sim, I played heaps of them and spent way too much time on them so I pretty much gave up.
  20. My appetite is the reason I'm a fat bastard. I can walk 10ks around the farm some days but I like food too much to loose any dramatic amounts of weight. I know I should cut down on meal sizes but that's not going to happen while I'm such a good fucking cook!!
