Closer to nowhere than anywhere


View Larger Map
I found one of my drill holes.
The map above should be centred on the concrete water tank we had helicoptered in from Mt Magnet. I spent about a month here in the mid 90's logging drill core from several 2-3km deep diamond holes from the same head.
Pan out and you see what I mean by remote.

Access Denied

If you suddenly can't access your USB memory stick, camera, phone or other mass storage device, in my case the 500Gb external hard drive, and you are using an Acer machine then for the love of [pick a god] Go into into Control Panel >> Add or Remove Programs >> remove everything Acer especially the LanScope and then reboot.
No more dreaded "Administrator has prohibited access to USB/1394 mass storage devices"

Get your boots on

How could I not have known? Sunday 27th July 2008 is National Stepfamily Awareness Day.

Presumably it was preceded by Have an Affair Day

And that by How the Fuck did She Find Out Day

Piss off I'm Taking the Kids Day

See You in Court Day

How the Hell Did it All End Up in a Heap Like This Day

RSVP Day

2nd Marriage Day

etc

And finally next year March 6 - Remember the Alimony Day

Briss (Mark II)

Went to my daughters god-father's second son's Briss last night.

Last time I posted this (for son #1) I was asked to 'please explain????'

to which I replied:

I hate it when I have to ex-plane comedy.
Do you mean the relationship where the god father (i.e. Christian) has a son subjected to a Jewish ritual or do you mean the Briss (sealing of the covenant between god and his adopted people by lopping bits off their genitals at a party) or do you mean the picture which is trying to convey the whole shomozle in ascii art?

I hope that nips any confusion in the bud, so to speek.
