@Fifikins Oh well if it’s second round, make mine a gin’n’tonic. Double & long.

Why advertise that you pay your Workers Compensation? “Hi, we obey the law. Do business with us.” Reinforce meme: your industry is corrupt.

@cyberetto Hi to new follower for the day number 3936. What have I done to garner such attention this week?
@ozwebfx Hi new follower, I hope my world is entertaining, educational, amusing or mildly erotic, as appropriate to your current needs.
@leslien Love your blog subtitle at http://is.gd/6Ke ‘cos I loved that track: http://is.gd/6Kf “I am not an Atomic Playboy”!
@leslien Hello, there, welcome to my Twitterverse. (I’ve stopped saying “Twitterstalker” since I discovered that’s a new service name.)
Just pressed “send” to Crikey. Article will appear at http://crikey.com.au around 2pm. Later today I’ll try to blog something about it.
Oops less than 30 mins until deadline, I should concentrate on wring words, not chatting about the issue. Looking for figures on eBay Aust.
@Nickhodge What US corporates fail to understand is that that *anything* could be different from how it is in the US.
@garthk “Australians to eBay: Oh no you don’t: is being submitted as a potential headline for Crikey. :P
ACCC to rule on eBay/PayPal. Comments by 2 May. http://is.gd/6Jz Anyone have figures on what PayPal Aust or eBay Aust earns? Crikey-writing.
@garthk No, everyone who uses computers should be able to reproduce Turing’s work in exam, just like I had to. PROVE a compiler works.
Internet Industry Assoc draft Code of Conduct for Internet Content Providers. 30 days to comment. http://is.gd/6Ji Code word: “safer”.

Thu plan: Work thru everything on my desk while my handychap sorts out the messy garden. Evening gym & diner w@SnarkyPlatypusypus.
@Nickhodge Well I suppose in one sense I *was* sleeping with a god… I’d better say that, eh? He reads my tweets.
“Any two objects are interchangeable, provided you try hard enough.”
Departing for the gym. AFK for next couple of hours.
@SnarkyPlatypus and I will be at the gym at 6pm, earlier for a change. More drinking time available afterwards, I guess. [Is this a theme?]
It is not wrong to drink red wine before the gym. It is not wrong to drink red wine before the gym. It is not wrong…
@bck My blog is Google #1 for “neocon sex kitten”, though. ;)
@bronwen Make sure you give all the snails names and get your kids to bond with them properly before fry-up time tho. Maximum trauma please.
@Nickhodge @bronwen Garden snails are fine to eat, just feed them on bran for a couple days to clean their gut. Know this first-hand.
Never leave home without your umlaut.
@Nickhodge Maybe I should give Crikey a list of weird bylines. Still, their “consonant laden übergeek” took the biscuit.
My eBay/PayPal piece didn’t make Crikey today. [shrugs] They commissioned it, their call. Will prob run tomorrow.
Oh. I just said “w00t for the first time. How 15yo of me.
Fuck. No chance of working now. Retro space & sci-fi imagery galore. http://is.gd/6L2 Check the tags! Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea! W00t!

Speaking of space, my timeline of Aust in space published on 50th anniversary of Sputnik in Oct 2007. http://is.gd/6KK <- I am link pimp.
@zhasper Oh if you want a good nerfing I will gladly nerf you. Or any of a number of verbs for you to choose from.
