xkcd Parody
# Posted by Joel Dixon at 09/02/2010 23:09:41Was stopping the mysql service on my laptop when I had an idea for a xkcd-style comic:
Alt Text: sc interrogate ex_girlfriends offers no hints either
Super geeky, crudely copied from a previous xkcd strip, and not very amusing - but it made me chuckle. A little bit.

Donate money for my next stupid run
# Posted by Joel Dixon at 04/02/2010 23:22:53Updated by Joel Dixon at 06/02/2010 02:11:27
I decided to enter the 2010 Run for the Kids 14.6 km event, and will probably stuff up my knees again. But I'm racing a friend from work - so it shouldn't be all bad.
How about you donate some money to sponsor me? Or don't.

Feta, Sushi and Underwear
# Posted by Joel Dixon at 04/02/2010 23:18:24That's right - I knocked off items 2, 3 and 9 from my 10 things for 2010 list.
Feta and Sushi have been eaten (not as bad as I remember them), and I feel I'm now ambi-jock-drous.
That's 5 items out of the 10 down, half-way there. But it also means I'm running out of the easy wins (or low-hanging fruit as managers like to say).

I should be fine. I'm sure the 15km will only be around 850 meters, after the measuring errors etc :) link
