"Hipness is what it is, but sometimes hipness is........what it ain't"
Tower of Power, circa 1971
This is the first edit of my page. I've kept most of the same text so that folks know who I am. I love this place and everyone has been real nice.
CAFRAM SHOWED ME HOW TO DO THIS  .....
 huh! Thanks Cafram...
Although from Scottish parents, I was born in a little city in Australia called Brisbane (or Bris-Vegas as we like to call it). It is Australia's easternmost capital in the state of Queensland.
Whilst only a small capital in terms of population, we can boast a large number of cricket and rugby internationals, and other assorted famous world personalities such as Greg Norman, Christopher Skase, Peter Foster (the Guy who was engaged to Samantha Fox and got imprisoned for fraud), Wally Lewis, Sir Joh Bejlke Peterson, Pat Rafter (after Mt Isa), Kieren Perkins, Savage Garden, The Bee Gees, Trevor Hendy, Powderfinger, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and the first man to orbit the Earth Yuri Gagarin (although I'm not 100% sure about Wally Lewis)
I work by day in the halls of finance, investment, greed, avarice and usury. I figure that I can attack the system from the inside, and make some cash along the way. I can always "do with the exercise" to quote the mice. By night however I create Disco Fever with my bass (not the fish) and train my own revolutionary black army in the deadly hand to hand arts. It's a hectic existence but ultimately rewarding. By weekend I eat, talk, wear black, play bass and worship at my church and spend as much time as possible sucking bottled air under the sea.
      
Books?... pretty much anything by DNA, Gore Vidal, P.J. O'Rourke, Simon Winchester, Eric Lustbader, Eric van Lustbader, and I've just appropriated a copy of 'Catcher in the rye' to see what all the fuss is about.
Music, Disco and more disco, plus Soul Funk, Disco, Freestylers, Jamiroquai, Roni Size, Moby, Level 42, disco, Chilli Peppers, Cake, etc, you get the picture. And first time around I forgot to add my man Sting.
Favourite things, Python, DNA, Food, Movies, Rugby, Kung Fu, the Groove, the ocean, and most importantly my mate Nat who I firmly believe was created as a result of God showing off.
I look forward to bumping into some of you periodically, listening to your brains, and having you maybe listen to mine..........

(Jan 18, 2002)
I seem to remember in my last journal entry (looking up.... yes that's right) mentioning that I would be adding a new journal entry each week.
Clearly I was being deliberately misleading, OR, was out of my mind.
In any case I'm sorry, and I will endeavour to make a new start.
Well, since my last entry, a lot has happened; I have taken a new direction in my career, Australia has won a test series, Santa has had his big annual world tour, a new year has commenced, and most importantly President Bush choked on a pretzel and fell off his Chesterfield and bruised his cheek (I think he hurt his face also) all because he didn't listen to mum Barbara when he was little.
That was a pretty long sentence, I'm going to have a quich breather.
Crazy things are happening people! Our national telecommunications monopoly has decided that more for them actually does mean "more for you". It seems that a $4.5B profit was enough of a scare to generate some drastic cost cutting and profit raising activity.
It would seem as well that taking a "regionally responsible stance" for our country means sticking countries that really can't afford it - because we've been pillaging them for the last 100 years - with looking after refugees that come by boat. I'm so out of touch.
I don't know what everyone else thinks, but it's a bit quiet around my neck of the woods in the absence of Cafram and 'Bagger. If it wasn't for Loonytunes answering my pleas for conversation or 2 new muso's I've just met, I'd be going out of my brain.
See you next week...

IT HAS BEGUN.....
(Nov 14, 2001)
Due to enormous consumer pressure and thousands of your letters ( well a poke from a Guru alright!) I have decided to make my inaugural journal entry. 
You're all invited and rightfully so because this will become the source of the most thrilling, witty, insightful, intelligent and thought provoking comment available. I welcome comment and critique, food, drinks, adoration and affection, and occasionally some personal abuse and howls of derisive laughter.
Each week, excitement, adventure and really wild things from the life and observations of the F-Reek.
