The rarely updated blog of Joel Dixon

It's a Tommy Gun!
# Posted by Joel Dixon at 11/10/2005 19:00:00Updated by Joel Dixon at 25/11/2008 21:57:32
Just downloaded my photos from my phone onto the PC - and have to share my first attempt at the creation of a balloon animal:
I shall call him Necky
While I was browsing my phone photos I also found these:
I walked onto the train - and it looked to me like this guy was talking into his banana-phone (his actual mobile was in his other hand)
This is what it looks like when a small Care Bear is doused with metho, lit and kicked around a backyard for a while

I'm reporting you to the Royal Society for the Protection of Cruelty to Care Bare's! Also, with all this posting you have been doing of late you should re-name your blog: The Sporadically Updated Blog might be more appropriate. # Posted - 12/10/2005 12:22:00 |

NatMac - this might have to do: Link And as for the Care Bear sympathetic sentiment - that bear got what was coming to it. Noone, not even Popples should be able to rip on Rainbow Brite and remain unpunished. # Posted - 12/10/2005 20:47:00 |

Oh - and yeah, sporadic is probably a more accurate description. I'm sure it will revert to "Rarely" in no time. # Posted - 12/10/2005 20:49:00 |

You need a guestbook!! Thought you would like this: www.jottings.com/100-oldest-dot-com-domains.htm ps - can't you comment in HTML on this? # Posted - 19/10/2005 10:29:00 |

Yeah - a guestbook is a good idea. I thought this Blogger site would only be around until I got around to coding my own blog software - but it's joined the long list of projects. As for commenting in HTML - I thought you could. I know it doesn't let you do a img tag - but an anchor tag should work. And yeah - those old dot com domains are fun to browse through. I actually subscribed to Jotting's blog when I first read it - though that was the most interesting entry they have had since then. If only I had have registered http://www.ibm.com/ when I was 5 years old! # Posted - 19/10/2005 14:10:00 |

yes - if only. I wonder if the actual companies, or cyber squatters registered those domains. Obviously they are owned by the respective companies now - but i wonder if they had to by them from an individual or an entity. I guess back then the new was all BBS type stuff and domains weren't widely used?? In 1985 the only web I was aware of was owned by an arachnic going by the name of Charolotte. As for tags - i think you can do it here, I'm just not HTML compliant enuf to do it yet. # Posted - 19/10/2005 15:21:00 |

Yeah - you'd have to think it was the actual companies. Back then - there was no such thing as cybersquatters - the web just wasn't known well enough. I'd also assume that registering a domain name would be extremely expensive, considering there were a select few people that actually used the web. Did a quick google - but can't find anything on the history of cybersquatting. # Posted - 19/10/2005 21:07:00 |
