At Town Hall station? You breathe this!
02 October 2008 in Photography, Sydney
This is the air vent in the elevator between platforms 1/2 and 4 at Sydney’s Town Hall station. Do you like that layer of black crap?
Town Hall station is already hot, humid, smelly and dangerously over-crowded. Add to these risks the fact that you’re breathing whatever it is that’s accumulating up there.

Dell’s useless customer “service”
02 October 2008 in Business, Internet
Dell, I’m not happy with you. I’m not happy with you at all. Your incompetent customer service has screwed up the timelines for an important project for a new client, yet your blind, stupid corporate machine blunders on like a brain-damaged slug.
If you read my Twitter stream yesterday you can probably skip this post. However [...] -

Who’s nominated for “Cnut” tonight?
02 October 2008 in Stilgherrian Live
It’s nomination time for “Cnut of the Week” for tonight’s edition of Stilgherrian Live (9.30pm Thursdays Sydney time).
It’s the same rules as usual. We’re after people (or abstract forces of nature) who’ve been futilely trying to hold back the tide of change.
Who do you nominate, and why?

I love this sort of trivial rubbish.
One day some snickering undergraduate is going to compile a well-written, well-researched book on this very subject, my friends. It will be a hilarious polemic on social conventions and etiquette across the entire social spectrum, covering every conceivable food group and beverage combination. I only hope I’ll be there to publish it. It will sit handsomely on the bookshop shelf next to my planned hilarious polemic on AFL footballer haircuts.
Oh yeah.
