Origin 3: QLD 16 - NSW 10

July 3rd, 2008

Woohoo!! Great game, a couple of dodgy umpiring decisions but at least they swung both ways this time.

I must admit, I thought we we might have been in trouble after Scott Prince broke him arm in the 15th minute, but it goes to show the resilience of the Queensland side that Thurston, Hunt and Smith didn’t panic and remained in control of the game. The scored were locked for so long in the second half it was almost unbearable, until a little dummy from Thurston broke through the NSW defence.

NSW’s attack was pretty soft I thought, they took a gamble with re-jigging their players (apparently right before kick-off!) but it didn’t pay off. So that’s three in a row, woot!!

Next year we’ll make it 4. :)

I still have all my stuff!

I haven’t been broken into for almost 2 weeks. Sweet!

Not much has been happening, went and saw the Chaser Variety Hour on Satuday and it was mega funny. :)

I seem to go through “love it” or “hate it” stages with PVP. Lately the story has been good and I’m starting to love it again. And now there’s this… pure gold. :)

Burglar update

June 23rd, 2008

Well the thieving pricks haven’t returned yet. Over the weekend I did a few things tho:

  • Hid all my spare keys.
  • Did an inventory of everything I have in the house (and put it on google docs rather than my PC).
  • Put a better latch on the side gate, and secured it with a large padlock.
  • Organised to have a home security system installed.

The last one is a pretty expensive option, but spending the entire day at work worrying about whether or not my house was being ransacked just wasn’t working out for me.

In other criminal-related news, I just received a letter and I have a question for you:

What’s the quickest/easiest way to get out of Jury duty??

I’m a contractor, I don’t get paid to do it and it could go for days or even weeks!! Is that enough of an excuse?
