Wasabi joins lolcats

As a proud surrogate father of Wasabi, my flat mate’s beautiful jet black (and cheeky) kitten, I wanted to ensure her a bright future. Which is why I scraped around for some pictures to caption so she can join the ranks amongst her fellow kitteh’s:

If you don’t enjoy lolcats and loldogs, what can I say… you’re really missing out. It’s bash for the new-age Gen-Y.

We wish Sabi the best. Please vote if you enjoy.

A devil of a weekend

It is no secret that I love swing dancing, and for the past few months I’ve been helping put together Devil City Swing — Tasmania’s first social swing dancing exchange, which was held over this weekend gone (22nd - 24th June).Devil City Swing posse enters a colouring-in competition

The whole weekend was rather huge and fairly exhausting, as these social exchanges ought to be! Our Saturday night event saw over 100 dancers from all over Australia — and some from international lands afar!

My proudest achievement of the weekend was having the opportunity to introduce people to our local bands and music scene culture, all of which us local Tassie folk get to experience every week for free. Three awesome bands played over the weekend, including The Cakewalking Babies, James Maddock and his band (JMH JHM Swingin’ Six), and Billy Whitton + Hep Cats.

Thanks to everyone that came and made the event a success, and loads of fun!

Everyone else, check out the photos to see why you should get pumped about swing and come along to our exchange next year!

Time to join the revolution

It’s been four years since the release of Wordpress, and in that same year was the release of MySpace - the leader of the latest online social revolution!

Apparently I’m behind the times. I’ve got a MySpace page where I ‘comment’ on people, so I thought it was about time I threw up a copy of Wordpress and started blogging as well.

Don’t worry, I’ll try not to talk about my feelings too much.
