Here’s another in my occasional series of humourous signs. This one was found on an advertising board at Arthur’s Seat in Victoria, Australia.
It’s a pity they didn’t include a photo of the tree bearing bottled cherry port!
I think Greg deliberately searches http://xkcd.com for jokes to send to me!
This is his latest.
If you’re following BestMacTools … sorry about the double post!
I’m working on installing a new theme for my blog and I’m doing it live. So if things look a bit strange for the next hour or so, please be understanding. The content will still be here, just the presentation might be a bit erratic until I have finished!
The core changes have been completed and everything looks to be stable again.
Now on to some fine tuning 
Having moved to my new MacBook Pro, I’ve been re-organising my photo library to take advantage of the power of the Mac. And having a great deal of fun doing it!
Anyway, I came across this gem which I photographed a few years ago in Hardware Lane, Melbourne. It remains one of my favourites from my humorous signs collection. Luckily, I resisted the temptation to go inside and ask what were the factors which resulted in a higher cost waxing.
Not sure what this says about my sense of humour though.
Enjoy!
One of my Xmas gifts (OK so I bought it for myself!) was a Oregon Scientific helmet cam from ThinkGeek.com.
Here’s my first effort at a Helmet Cam movie. Continue reading
I have been accused of living under a rock as I knew nothing about Google Streetscapes! My colleagues assumed that I would know that the streetscape outside our office includes a photo of my Gilera Runner scooter.
With some guidance, I have discovered that it is indeed true… take a look here.
By the way, if you haven’t explored Google Maps it’s well worth the effort. Even though I have a GPS in the car and my phone, I still use Google Maps to get an overview of a trip to a new location and generally insert the map link in a web site’s “Contact Us” page.
Just for the record, our house is also on the streetscape (the doorway and garage on the left of the picture).
Over Easter there was a tragic level crossing accident in Victoria which resulted in loss of life.
Afterwards, it was explained that it was “too expensive” to install boom gates (supposed to cost $500,000) so it is up to us to drive more carefully.
How stupid are we? TAC happily spends MILLIONS of our premiums on advertising and sponsors a football competition (the AFl’s TAC Cup).
Just a fraction of the money wasted on advertising or paying for young men to chase a ball around a paddock could have saved the lives so tragically lost.
For the last few months I have been working with Chris Lang, the author of “How Investing in Commercial Property Really Works”, on the software behind his new Commercial Property Investment LAB. We are now in the official launch phase and Chris has released a video which contains his view of the Australian commercial property market.
The video contains what Chris calls a “Dire Warning” about these markets in the near future. If you’re in this market, or contemplating getting into the market tou owe it to yourself to watch the video
