Imagine that... It seemed that the Lexmark Indy 300 this year spent more time under the yellow flag and safety car than not!
This was the end of the race for Dan Clarke and his HVM car. Team-mate Nelson Philippe took out the race though so I guess it wasn't all bad news for the team.
This is BJ, son of Bubba (in the background), feasting on Cola's dinner. This was taken a while ago now, BJ doesn't look quite so innocent anymore, but still gets away with the occasional feed. Cola (our cat) doesn't seem to mind too much, as long as they stay out of her way she seems ok with them sharing her food from time to time.
I ran into a bug when using Korganizer with the CVS version of WebCalendar, two great pieces of software that otherwise seem to work pretty well together.
You know, I blame conventional media for this. I place my trust in them by watching TV news several times a week, and they miss reporting a massive story like THIS? Google added a street map layer to their Australian and New Zealand maps back on May 18 2006, and then just a few weeks ago on September 6 Google Maps added street Searching too!

He lowers his binoculars - the pirates are much closer than they first appeared!
Taken at the 2005 Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras in Sydney, NSW. The ladies on the bike are part of the "Dykes on Bikes" contingent, a clear crowd favourite at every Mardi Gras. There are groups all over the world so I don't know if these two ladies are from the Sydney club or elsewhere. The sound of over 200 loud and proud motorbikes has to be heard to be believed!
