I’ve handed back the keys to the office, packed my shit and left the building.
Today was my last day at my current job before I start my new one on Monday.
We went out for drinks last night in Kew which was really good. Great to catch up with people and sink beers. Top night was had by all, even the commie had fun!
So I start my new position of Project Manager Monday and I’m really hangin out for it yet at the same time quietly shitting one’s pants.
We’ve been playing the XBOX 360 for just over a week now and hot doggity this is by far the best console ever!
At the moment the games are alright (as you’d expect for initial games on a new console) they look good, play fast, but the real awesomeness is in the connectivity.
Wireless controllers have been around for ages however now they have been done right. Simple to connect, automatically saves battery when not in use, the ability to power on and off the console (thank god!), connections for headset, and awesome range (i’m able to work around the house while still trash talking over XBOX Live). 10 outta 10
Jana Pittman is worried that the whole MCG will boo her out when she competes in her event tonight…Â
“She is an incredible athlete but her performance just depends on how the crowd treat her when she comes out into the stadium,” Rawlinson said yesterday.
“She is scared of hearing someone boo her. So I am just hoping everyone is behind her 100 per cent because she wants to run for them.”
“She has done an awful lot of crying,”
It’s been a little quiet on the XBOX 360 modding scene for quite a while due to Microsoft learning from their mistakes and putting in some pretty good security to stop people from modding it.
Until now…
Over the last couple of days someone has been able to hack the DVD drive firmware so that it bypasses the security check done by the XBOX 360 firmware and allow you to play ‘backed up’ games.
Hello again people this will be my last post I would say as from 12:01 23/03 I will be playing or picking up my 360 so I will not have time to communicate with people. I would say most of the people who read this site will be playing 360. So what should I say about this great system today? Well I think all I can do is show you a pic of what one of the great games that is going to be out will look like the game is oblivion and if you have a girlfriend you better hope you are good looking because you won’t be spending any time with her if you get this game and if you don’t have the looks she not going to be hanging around.
I watched the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games last night and I still can’t decide if it was any good or not.
I think at one stage I saw a koala cross human thing running around in a dirty pair of y-fronts.
The giant flying tram was pretty cool but from there it got a little weird.
It needed to be a little more ‘Melbourne’ I thought and what better way than borrowing from the AFL Grand Final performances! Do you remember the rather feminine looking guys in footy gear dancing provocatively with each other? Oh oh and what about Angry Anderson and the Batmobile! That would’ve put bums on seats!
Hi Again me back for 9 and 8 days to go.
