This made me laugh loudly at my computer screen (or ‘llamcs’) … that is after I did the math and understood it. I am half embarrassed that I didn’t get it straight away and half relieved.

Last night I went to Mortdale RSL Meat Raffle. I know what you are thinking …”he has used two meat puns in the one headline! Genius!”; that is true, but you may also be thinking “that sounds lame” – it is that kind of defeatist attitude that will have you walking away with the ‘chicken tray’.

Due to the large amounts of meat and the small number of people who attend you are bound to walk away with at least the pork, not to mention a shaky hand from the buzz of it all. Pure madness.

Last night Joe came over with his Nintendo Wii. I started off trying to be really cool and not over exert myself … but that isn’t how the Wii works.

This morning I woke up seven kinds of sore. I think it was the baseball.

In the past few weeks I have gotten into a lot of R & B and Hip Hop.

I find Lupe Fiasco so cool. When I drive and have Kick Push on eleven and the window open … I feel so … “white” … but in a good way I guess. I really like his music cause he gives so much attention to his lyrics and they aren’t all about how great he is – he let me be the judge of that which is nice … turned out in his favour as well.

Corinne Bailey Rae is really soothing. Each song has got groove and she just plays with the space. Really nice and mellow.

Baher got me onto D’Angelo and lent me Voodoo. Pino Palladino is on bass and really works the beats. D’Angelo has so much vision – the songs are so intricate and well constructed. I have still got a heap of listening to do with it.

Back to Uni next week. Long car trips provide heaps of listening time.

Two weeks ago I went to see The Weather play and who do I find there but Dave Powys. Dave is playing in a new band called San Salvador who are ‘the funk’.

We were outside after the gig and their tour photographer Simon took this photo. That is my ‘out and about rock star’ face.
