No news today.

Waiting slightly nervously for a visit with the doctor tonight as the preamble to a battery of tests tomorrow.

Given that Athina’s already 7 and a bit weeks in (7 weeks & 4 days today), we missed all the early tests completely and now have to go back and check blood, virii, and so on… luckily I [...]

Sean Hynes

One of the wonderful (truly wonderful) features of the new WordPress is that you can export / import the whole blog so, rather than spend a day or two copying articles back and forth between here and Bali Belly, I’ve been able to get Sean Hynes up to speed in 5 minutes flat.

Bali Belly Upgrade in Process… please bear with me.

I’ve just updated Bali-Belly.com to WordPress 2.3 (2) and it went very smoothly (possibly too smoothly — now I’m sitting around waiting for my ceiling too explode).

Along with the upgrade, I’ll be making some changes to this site over the next week or so. Bali-Belly was originally a place for me to work out feelings [...]

Drive-by Downloads and other stuff

Got my computer ballsed up yesterday with a Trojan — kept bouncing me off to a website selling antivirus software… gah.

Spam mail is one thing, I can understand how people might be tempted to buy something. Particularly if they have’re having a problem getting an erection.

Likewise the “Dear Sir, I’m a Banker in Nairobi with [...]

New ways to contact us — Skype Me!

I’ve not yet been able to watch a bandwagon roll past me without at least trying to jump on it and, so, here I go again — late again: Skype.

Now, if you’re in the US or the UK, you can call me cheaply at the US or UK telephone number or, even more cheaply, skype [...]

Bali Beads – An Introduction (and a small rant)

Up until about five minutes ago, I thought I understood the meaning of “Bali Bead”…

… I was wrong (sigh).

I had thought, silly me… SOOOO naive… that a Bali bead was a bead made in Bali. Apparently not.

According to one article:
“Bali beads originated in India. The Indians taught the Balinese how to make the beads. [...]

Beads-Bali Just about to go live…

It’s five in the evening here in Bali and while I might have been out at the beach or walking the dog or drinking a nice glass of wine, instead I’m at home, at the desk, putting beads-bali.com through its paces.My favorite part of the process was inserting a picture of our (my wife’s and my) [...]
