When the world it gets so crowded that you can't look out the window in the morning.
Alaska, in avalanche territory.
This weekend coming is one of my favourite Sydney days in the year, it's the Newtown festival. Oh boy, am I gonna get sunburnt and drunk. Last year I crash-tackled a security guard. That's going to be hard to top. Unfortunately, I'm struggling to get a posse together. Wen is heading south to see her neice dance. Pharmacy Matt is working at a Pharmacy getting paid far too much, and besides, he's moved to Surrey Hills now. It's a crying shame he'll not darken the doors of the Zanzi bar, the Bank hotel, the Coopers Arms, the Townie, the Courthouse, the Newtown RSL, the Marly bar, Kelly's, and to a lesser extent, the Newtown Hotel, the Imperial, and all those pubs down the boring end of Newtown that I care not a whit for. With any luck, Pete will roll up, as will Tangles, plus some assorted university friends, but that's a poor man's posse.
I have other news, but there are pressing matters at hand! xo.

I'm aghast! All my text is gone. Dear, sweet text. And a piccy.
Yup - it's been happening. Happened to me and I nearly cried - a work of unparalleled genius lost to the world forever.
Have been saving to word docs to make sure before publishing - java scripting issue me thinks.
I am trying to think of a more anal, geeky sounding paragraph than that above and... nup - got nothing.
So young, so sad.
Nerrrrrrrd! Nerrrrrrrd!
Post title is from a Nick Drake song right?
I do believe you're right, mr ced, I was wondering why it sounded familiar. I think its hazy jane.
Hmm, thanks for the heads up, fellow nerdikins. Will be careful with future longwinded posts
Oi Pot! This is the kettle! You're black!
Pot played in this case by Chris D.
you may be gay but i am drunk!
I much prefer the somewhat less culturally sensitive phase; "That’s the Abo calling the Nigger black". In this particular context it makes me the Abo and KT the Nigger but I can live with that.
Ian, I do believe it is from Hazy Jane II and it was matt's intention to sow confusion and doubt with such an ambiguous post title.
Matthew, your post with no text seems to have attracted a lot of attention. Is this some avant-garde technique to attract additional interest? Or are we perhaps a group of lack wits who don’t need a reason to post and this is all some evil experiment? Or perhaps I have too much time on my hands at work to hypothesize?
No Ceedy.. I think that it is our desperate need to fill the aching void left by the missing text. Oh wrap me in comments and shelter me from this cruel, empty and post-less world.
Text!
Fellow boggers: All is not lost. Just re-edit the misbehaving post and click "Recover Post", and it shall re-appear. Puff of smoke suspiciously absent.
no - that's a false sense of security - sometimes that disappears too! be wary! and be aggressive! b.e aggressive, be aggressive!
Man, that was a good day last year at the Newtown Festival, sigh.
Meeeeemmmmmories!
Ahh zanzibar. Too much zanzi, not enough bar.
do you bit your thumb at him, o or just bite it, man am i drunk. found awesome dj - more to come. am betrothed for sure.
where does your gran live again?
Ian - you can never have enough zanzi. In the perfect world, we would all have more zanzi than all of the sticks in the world could collectively and simultaneously poke at.
Zanzibar was never especially kind to me... i always left that place feeling dirty for one reason or another...
In zanzi related news, i just discovered a book of authentic, UNUSED zanzibar matches. The irish girl in my new house keeps trying to use them to light her marlboro's. My constant objections that she should not be using such a sacred relic for such a mundane task appear to be falling on deaf ears. I have no doubt that at some point in the near future i shall be returning home to an ashtray full of butts seated next to the torn and broken body of the zanzibar matches. RIP. (pre-emptive).
can get that song for youse. dont stray too far from your inbox.
