He's got a tye dyed Rancid shirt

He wears his birkenstocks to work

-Is he a jerk? No! - Just confused

Jeff don't wear regular shoes...

something weird, maybe something deep?

the other day i drove to work and on the way I saw a poster for the upcoming bloc party show. being one of my favorite bands i was instantly chuffed, thinking "oh yeah, im there". and then something weird happened. not more than 10 seconds later i thought "meh, i dont really care actually". which is weird because i love concerts, well at least i used to. but now i just didnt care.

it was like a few years ago i was in class all bored. so i thought well i'll just draw something. and so i went to draw something. but i just sat there. and i realised; there was nothing i wanted to draw.

sumtimes love is a beautiful thing

I think...

I think if you ever give someone a book you should always write a little note in it.

Somethings should not be collected. I have a friend who always keeps his skateboards once he's done with it. He just hangs them up on a wall. It bugs me, like dude the thing was made to be ridden - ride it or give it away. I always had a rule when I skated not to have more than 2 boards - 1 to skate and one for back up. Otherwise what is it if its not being skated? Just a piece of wood.

There no such thing as too many photos.

Pat O'dell is where it is at. Dane Reynolds is where it is going.

Jeryy Hsu owns it. Louie Barletta is an icon, no institution

Jon Rattray should run the EU

Mark Twain should of written more challenging books.

The older I get the more I listen to music I thought I never would...

he sat naked and drunk in a room of summer
night, running the blade of the knife
under his fingernails, smiling, thinking
of all the letters he had received
telling him that
the way he lived and wrote about
that--
it had kept them going when
all seemed
truly
hopeless.

putting the blade on the table, he
flicked it with a finger
and it whirled
in a flashing circle
under the light.

who the hell is going to save
me? he
thought.

as the knife stopped spinning
the answer came:

you're going to have to
save yourself.

still smiling,
a: he lit a
cigarette
b: he poured
another
drink
c: gave the blade
another
spin.

Is it just me or are long-boarders a little more stylish then short boarders? They had the shorter short thing going on long ago and the sunnies hat thingo was always there. While so many short-boarders are wearing baggy boardies and 50-cent style flexi fits, there surfing in cut off jeans and beaver tails. Pics to follow...

And while Im talking surf - is stab the only mag a over 21 year old can read anymore? The answer is no, you could also read transworld.

Everything I ever learnt was from tv (or How to get a law degree from the movies)

2008-06-11T23:52:00.000-07:00

I think thats the name of a book about a man who learnt alot from tv. I never read it - Im waiting for the movie version. In the meantime Im trying to get a law degree from movies. The following help.

The Castle - Should be called "Australian Constitutional Law 101"
A Time to Kill - Lean how to persuade a jury based on race
Rounders - Inspiration to drop out of law school and become a card shark
Erin Brockovich - Better for the ladies but still useful
Sleepers - Not very useful in winning a case but if you ever get caught up in the mob and need to loose a case to save your friends lives - this is the movie for you
Philadelphia - Keep reaching for the rainbow
Devils Advocate - If only I knew who Al Pacino was playing I'd send my resume
A Few Good Men - I didn't know what to study to become Jerry McGuire so I chose law.

I do this

I always wonder if they are having real conversations too. And if they are, is the conversation written or is it a real conversation between strangers? (Thanks Postsecret).

I always end up by the bay

Here are some ugly pictures of the 3 bays I have lived near. Moreton, cisco and Haifa. I do not believe photos do justice to water, so I thought I'd put in ugly ones.

Home is where I want to be
Pick me up and turn me round
I feel numb - born with a weak heart
I guess I must be having fun
The less we say about it the better
Make it up as we go along
Feet on the ground
Head in the sky
It's ok I know nothing's wrong . . nothing

Hi yo I got plenty of time
Hi yo you got light in your eyes
And you're standing here beside me
I love the passing of time
Never for money
Always for love
Cover up and say goodnight . . . say goodnight

Home - is where I want to be
But I guess I'm already there
I come home - she lifted up her wings
Guess that this must be the place
I can't tell one from another
Did I find you, or you find me?
There was a time Before we were born
If someone asks, this is where I'll be . . . where I'll be

Hi yo We drift in and out
Hi yo sing into my mouth
Out of all those kinds of people
You got a face with a view
I'm just an animal looking for a home
Share the same space for a minute or two
And you love me till my heart stops
Eyes that light up, eyes look through you
Cover up the blank spots
Hit me on the head Ah ooh
