Staying warm.
No-one “needs” a Ferris wheel. Certainly the plaza in front of the Chinese Garden does not need one.
@Matt_Tulk Many clients whose core business is not “Internet stuff” still pay by cheque. Usually those who consistently pay late, too.
Wondering how long to wait for my 3.30pm interviewer to call, it now being 3.45pm.
I suppose I should go to the bank. Some clients have sent me things called “cheques”. All very retro.
Silly “Song Chart Meme” posts: Song lyrics as charts. http://tr.im/lp3o
@AmosKeeto Maybe. I actually suspect that after reading all that Guy Rundle I’ll need extra therapy.
Reading everything Guy Rundle’s written this week in one massive catch-up session. My brain is likely to explode.
RT @jdub: Loved @rbbrown’s “How to kill five hours in Parliament House” http://is.gd/A0Tc (her writing style is hilarious). [Agreed!]
I’m also pleased to report that I’ll now take a medicinal walk in the sun and have lunch on King St, Newtown.
I’m pleased to report that there appears to be no server compromise, but spam blowback from a less-than-optimally configured secondary MX.
@queenvictoria Thank you, Your Majesty. Whatever happened, happened between 4am and 5am this morning, Sydney Colonial Time. #postmaster
“Table ‘maillog’ is marked as crashed and last (automatic?) repair failed.” It just gets MOAR BETTERER as the morning progresses! Poo.
Clients notified (their email affected too). Spam RBL provider contacted. Email stats being gathered to find the cause. Whirr whirr whirr.
Twitter was invented in 1935! http://tr.im/lohH Hat-tip Ivan Trundle.
@bennglazier I’m hosting with me. Or should I say my own business. Hence the “Fuck” because I have to deal with it myself.
Fuck. Our shared hosting server has been listed in an anti-spam RBL. Now to discover why and resolve. There goes the rest of the morning.
RT @sylmobile: The many people being more connected also leads to a distributed caring: free form subcommittes that pollies can’t stop.
@WarWraith On a micro scale, there’s at least a dozen threads my conversation could ravel on Twitter alone RIGHT NOW. Most MUST be ignored.
RT @WarWraith: I think it’s a basic side-effect of being so connected. There are too many things to care about. :S [Agreed 100%.]
Sat plan: Kill time waiting for @SnarkyPlatypus to sober up by clearing the nasty inbox on my desk; plan the rest after that.
@sylmobile @wolfcat T’was indeed beautiful, and little sign of falling brimstone etc. If only I felt as beautiful.

@Derrick_Siu Hiya. The overseas #secretmission IS happening, and I should be able to say some more VERY soon. Enjoy London!
@mediahunter I’ll go for the “dusty westerly winds” theory. If we were on Mars, the cats wouldn’t have been so demanding for food. Probably.
Emerges. Not as well-retated as I’d have liked, but better than yesterday anyway. Red clouds at dawn, before. Isn’t that a bad sign?
Going dark for the rest of the night, reading then early sleep. [exit]
Integral Energy, I’m not your customer. I don’t do business on my doorstep at night. I shouldn’t have to have said twice. NOW FUCK OFF!
@kerryank I’ve never thought of a Ferris wheel as a sex toy! I’m grateful for your insight.
