I guess you could say that my childhood wasn’t the best. I don’t like to complain, of course. People in third-world countries have it much worse than me, and plenty of people in Australia itself had it much worse as well. My parents were rich! I didn’t really benefit from any of that wealth, living …
Every story has a beginning. Sometimes that beginning is thousands of years old, as is the Legend of the Great Window Tinter. He is destined to save the world from people who would breach the privacy of others. I first read the prophecies of this hero in the ancient pyramids of Egypt, on the back …
There’s nothing like the phrase ‘needs a little TLC’ to sell a property, especially when you’re asking more than it’s really worth. That’s just a little observation I’ve picked up while looking at rural properties for sale. I guess the vendors are banking on being so remote that some city slicker’s going to think they’ve …
I understand that the eighties are kind of an unpopular period as far as design goes, or at least it has been. As that decade recedes ever-further into the past, that may well be changing, but there’s still a sense of people regarding it as low on class. Despite that, I’m determined to swing the …
I can’t go into details, but I work for a very important construction company in the south eastern suburbs of Melbourne. Every employee at our company is forbidden from divulging where we work, purely for the reason that our company is such a leader in the industry. Our CEO, who is a fantastic business man, …
I really thought this was going to be the Summer of the Boat. That’s what I’ve been calling it since last September, partly because the phrase reminds me of a nineties horror movie title, the sheer ring of which I figured would keep me on track towards my goal. The goal in question, as you …
Hi, I’m Zach Jordan. You may remember me from such films as Ow, My Giant Blue Head and Is No Fun, Is No Blinsky. Alternatively, you might know me from my blog work on A Big, Beautiful, Old Rock. Today I’ll be answering questions about my latest film, I Am the Senate, in which I …
Business is booming. I’m not entirely sure why there’s such a strong interest in commercial solar systems, but I’ve sold over a dozen already, at $100 each. Maybe I should be charging more for them. I mean, most of them do have entire planets ready for mining. They’re probably worth a few thousand dollars each, …
Last week I posted the first half of my interview with ULTRACORP, and today I’ll be sharing the rest with my faithful readers. “Mr Karl and Mr Shawn, do you mind telling me what your company name means. There are theories, of course, but surely they cannot be true. Does it have anything to do …
I thought that being a creature of the night would be more fun than this, but the truth is, it really sucks (not sorry about the pun). The television shows and movies tell you it will be all rave parties and drinking blood out of goblets like it’s red wine, but it’s nothing like that. …
