Driving to Bundaberg

Tonight i drove to Bundaberg, stopping at Ray and Tracy’s in Gympie to light a big-ass fire

Ekka race day

Man. The Ekka race day at Eagle Farm is crazy…it takes 40 minutes to line up for a drink and 20 minutes to get a hot dog, but it’s still fun

XR Falcon GT

This is what a muscle car looked like in Australia in 1967, with its 289ci V8 and skinny chrome steel wheels. This car was the beginning of an era of overpowered beasts with crap brakes and bouncy, lurching suspension, ending with Holden putting huge V8s into little Toranas until the oil scare.

Mercedes Benz 300SL

Break Up on Live TV!

This video is apparently staged and wasn’t really put to air, but it’s still amusing. Watch Chris Taylor’s staged live TV stunt of breaking up with his girlfriend on the Australian morning show, Sunrise. I wish his message was for the show’s hosts, they’re horrible.

Handy TV in the Kitchen

We decided that it’d be nice to have a TV in the kitchen so that we can watch Jamie Oliver, Yan Can Cook, The Iron Chef etc, and cook at the same time. You know, it’s cool to be able to follow along as they cook.
Can’t wait for those shows to come on now.
