Hoax
I came up to Manchester today until Sunday. :) I was just reading some Fundamentalist Christian Armegeddon Muslim Israel Revelations Bush Syria website (I’m not even going to give you a link cos I don’t want to be an accessory)… Some people are totally whacked. The thing is their arguments can *seem* rational, only when [...]
I Love The Internet
I love the Internet. First thing this morning I was greeted by the postman with my Amazon delivery. I ordered Flatland for £1.25 and Flatterland for £6-something (recommended by my friend Julian). Lovely…. I’ve only ever read Flatland online. I started reading it to Mo this evening as his newest bedtime story. We’re 3 pages [...]
Reality TV
Brian stopped by for a night… which was nice! He had been to Athens for a conference. Don’t ever let an academic fool you into thinking these conferences are terribly boring. They’re held at interesting places that you’d be happy to holiday at and leave time for plenty of sightseeing. I’d be surprised if there [...]
Stomp
I took Mo to see ‘Stomp’ this afternooon. It was a total spur of the moment thing. We had a great time. I can’t wait until the day when someone once again decides that I may actually benefit from being paid (decently) for the work I do so I can do things like that more [...]
Update inc Isabella
So I haven’t written in a bit. Oops. I’ve been fairly busy writing (but not what I should be writing… >_
She’s A Flight Risk
Still chasing Isa. Sean-Paul and Jay from the Agonist say they are just ‘helping’ Isa. Hmmmm… Fishy.
She’s A Flight Risk
YES!!!! Holly from Collective Detective and I cracked “She’s a Flight Risk”. Read it here. *EDIT* August 2008: the link to Collective Detective no longer works. Here is what I wrote up about this: http://www.aflightrisk.blogspot.com She’s called Isabella V, except she’s not, and she’s an International Fugitive. ‘So, what do you think? Is Isabella real [...]
She’s A Flight Risk
So Isabella V *is* a bit of a tech whizz (we’ll at least she’s using a proxy server). She emailed me to say she *isn’t* where I thought she was and that she’d take a virtual tour around the globe visiting my pix page on Apollo’s Children every step along the way. I looked at [...]
She’s A Flight Risk
OK. I’ve been in touch with Isabella V. *Still* can’t say if it’s real or not…. I also think I traced her. She visited my site and mentioned a specific page. So I went into my access logs and as there was only one person that actually went to that page today (it’s a rare [...]
She’s A Flight Risk
OK so here’s the other stuff I’ve found when looking into “…she’s a flight risk.” Going down the Liesel Pritzker route (as on the Agonist the “independent source” that was quoted said that Isabella V either knew or knew of Liesel) and it turns out Liesel went to ‘New Trier’ high school in Illinois. Another [...]
She’s A Flight Risk
I’m not sure if “…she’s a flight risk.” is real or not. I have doubts either way. But I’ve been reading her comments on other blogs and… well, if she’s not real, she’s very, very good. Some site sent me to this Forbes article. But Isabella said she has redhair. Unless that’s a lie. But [...]
She’s A Flight Risk
Just found a very interesting blog. Fingers crossed for me for today…OK?! Two pitches happening… **update** I just found this Wired article on that blog… hmmmm… NOTE: I’ve kept most of my early blog posts private.
I Heart ARGs
So, how the hell did I miss this first time around??? I’ve got levels 1 and 2 passwords… and when I go back I know where to get level 3 (if you wanna breeze through)… I found it on Evil Pupil – on the main page, not the one I just sent you to… that’s [...]
Star Wars Kid
You’ve probably already seen this Star Wars vid, but… damn, it’s funny. The remix is here. It’s funnier, in a lot of ways, than ‘The Superbowl is Gay’ man/child, Andy Milonakis, as Mr. Milonakis intended his vid to be put up on the ‘net. The Darth Maul fat kid most certainly did not. If Spaced [...]
