Cool effects

This clearly took these guys a while to put together. The video is on the long side (around 6 minutes) but worth a look all the way through.

This guy is really good

I particularly like the Morgan Freeman impression - reminds me of the movie "The Shawshank Redemption".

Wipeout

I don't know if you've seen it, but I'm sitting on the couch watching Wipeout Australia. The sight of a wide variety of Aussies wiping out on a stupid-looking obstacle course? I can't stop giggling - although maybe it should be "chuckling" rather than giggling. If you get the opportunity, I highly recommend watching it at least once. The American version is also very funny...

Overdue Update

Well I guess it is fair to say that an update is overdue. I write this sitting on a plane, waiting for it to leave Bangkok for Hong Kong. Sonia is somewhere in Australia (Melbourne?), probably heading for bed. She is working there for a couple of days before going down to Auckland. I have the next few days in Hong Kong before leaving on Friday night to meet in NZ.

I have been working here - getting a couple of proposals put together. If any of them come off, I should have between 6 and 12 months work through my own company. It is interesting and exciting at the same time. But also rings some bells from when I worked with Tacit in NZ. I recall the boss talking about projects and bids - and some of the ridiculous behaviour of the prospective clients.

Oh great - a stinking Chinese guy has taken the seat next to me. And by stinking, I really do mean stinking. In drastic need of a shower... At least the flight is only 2.5 hours long!
