Go the Subies!
Go the Subies! Good luck in Greece this weekend. This is a hardcore rally, so we are in with a chance. Subaru always comes up trumps in the more technically challenging rallies.

WOW! Chinese astrology works!
This is mine: I'm the year of the DOG: Someone may try telling you cock-and-bull stories so as to influence and exploit you. Don't be too credulous, especially if someone asks you for a helping hand or for a loan. At work, delays and annoyances will get on your nerves; nevertheless, try to control yourself. Differences of opinion with one of your best friends. Perhaps it'd time to go to your dentist's for a cleaning.
Message for this day.
Anyone who knows me well enough will know (with a little thought) what this day previously meant to me. Its funny how something that means everything to you can fall to nothingness in less than two years. Sometimes that two years seems like the longest time in the world and at other times it seems like i just blinked and ended up here. I feel so much better for having endured what I have. Would I wish it on anyone? on my worst enemy (if I had one)?... no... But I have learnt that I have a strength that can see me through the darkest days. Nothing is worse than this. I can survive *anything*. Were it not for this day, Felix would not be here. He means the world to me and I would endure anything for him. I will never give up on him. He makes life all the more sweeter and the precious hours I have with him linger in my heart always. He cant know what strength he has given me but I know that I owe him the world and I am going to be the best damn Dad I can be for him! He will grow to love his Dad, and more importantly, my one hope is that he will grow to *like* his Dad. Lastly, I'd like to give thanks to Alanis Morissette... if I couldnt scream out along with her in my car I just dont know where I would have eneded up. And on that note... I'll keep it short and sweet and leave you with these thoughts. Thanks Alanis xxx --------------- how 'bout getting off of these antibiotics how 'bout stopping eating when I'm full up how 'bout them transparent dangling carrots how 'bout that ever elusive kudo thank you India thank you terror thank you disillusionment thank you frailty thank you consequence thank you thank you silence how 'bout me not blaming you for everything how 'bout me enjoying the moment for once how 'bout how good it feels to finally forgive you how 'bout grieving it all one at a time thank you India thank you terror thank you disillusionment thank you frailty thank you consequence thank you thank you silence the moment I let go of it was the moment I got more than I could handle the moment I jumped off of it was the moment I touched down how 'bout no longer being masochistic how 'bout remembering your divinity how 'bout unabashedly bawling your eyes out how 'bout not equating death with stopping thank you India thank you Providence thank you disillusionment thank you nothingness thank you clarity thank you thank you silence ---------------

Thought for the day: Rock at work
Why cant we "Rock" at work. Rock stars are the only people who, when they do their job correctly get rewarded by getting womens panties thrown at them or huge pyrotechnic explosions. I want to change this. Girls, next time you get a really good latte at Starbucks (or similar), rip off your panties and throw them at the guy who just serverd you. I bet you next time you walk in, he will have a perfect latte already waiting for you. Guys, wouldnt it be great to add a bit of pizazz into your work day with pyrotechnics!? It would justify doing that boring board report when, as you handed it over to your boss and said "Heres the report you asked for..." a HUGE blast of pyrotechnics shot into the air and you slid across the floor playing air guitar. Lets do it. Lets ROCK at work. c.

Scale Model Ferrari
This guy is obsessed!... and a genius...
Yes, I found it: "The Ballad of Casey Macphee" (Cookie Monster)
***************************** "The Ballad of Casey Macphee" Narrator: Listen, while I tell you, a story old and true, about how Casey Macphee the engineer got his train through. He faced the toughest duty, an engineer could do, but he was brave and not afraid and he got his train through! (chorus) Through, through, through, he got the train through. Through, through, through.... Cookie: Me got the train, and get it through..... N: Train was carrying moo cows, and cake and ice cream too. There were six cars full of cookies, and a tank of chocolate too. The stuff was for the party, that the kids would have all year. And getting that train through the narrow pass was the job of the engineer! (CHORUS) C (spoken): Oh, this train full of stuff me love to eat. And there are lote of children waiting for stuff on other side of dangerous narrow pass. Me must get train through!!!!! N: But an avalanche had closed the track and covered it with snow. The snow was deep, the track was blocked, there was no place he could go. Casey knew the train was filled with things he loved to eat. But Casey knew his duty and would not admit defeat! (CHORUS) C (spoken): Oh, tough choice. Track covered with snow. If me stay here, and not try to go through pass, Me stuck here, all alone with six cars of cookies and ice cream. Aaaaaaaaallllll alone, with nooooooooobody watching. Me getting hungry. Me getting VERY hungry! Oooooooh, maybe it's not too bad if me eat some cookies... Wait!! What me doing???? It be very bad if me eat cookies. Me must get train through!!!!! N: Well, Casey was a hero. And his duty he could see. Without the cookies and the milk, no party could there be. The kids would be unhappy, So Casey raised his head....... C: Me forget about the cookies, AND EAT THE SNOW INSTEAD!!!!! N: Through, through, through, he got the train through, he ate up all the avalanche.... C: It mighty tasty too! N: Through, through, through, he got the train through. Casey that brave engineer got the train through!

Jam It!
I just thought I'd share a little part of my day with you and hopefully pass on some wisdom. THE SCENARIO: I came in this morning and had a chat with a certain sales person whose name starts with "M" and ends with "ike Hargis". We chatted about his recent trip to Canberra and how cold it was. This unnamed salesperson was eating a muffin, thickly coated in Apricot Jam. I thought nothing of it at the time and went to make my breakfast. I put some toast on and went to the fridge to get my jam out. Then it struck me, "There is only one lot of jam in here...MINE!". I grabbed the jam and was further disappointed to find that not only was the jar ajar :) but jam was spilled on the side of the jar and was now all over my fingers. Tops! >:-| THE CONFRONTATION: When I confronted Mike... errr... the salesperson, he simply laughed it off lightly and explained how he had lost all of his morals in Canberra. This shattered me... how could he simply shrug me off like that! That was not just ANY jam, that was MY jam. I defined myself by that jam... He had stolen my identity, the one true thing that made me... well...me. After all, you are what you eat. ;-) THE MORAL: "You can take the Salesperson out of the city but you cant take the Salesperson out of the person" THE WARNING: Be alert, not alarmed. A salesperson may be lurking anywhere. They may even look just like you and me (but they probably dress a little snappier). From this day forth no jam is safe. Only with diligent resolve will we crush the onslaught of our pectin pilfering protagonists! c.
