a day of listening

Semi-Permanent '08 was on yesterday at the Regal.  It was good.  I liked most of the speakers but was a bit disappointed with Ben Frost and Interzone.  I got the new 2008 book for 20 bucks which was a bargain and it didnt disappoint.  I also got to see the "letters with feeling" exhibition and saw my letter J with all the other letters as A0 size posters on giant easels that were set up throughout the theatre.  

Amy Sol was interesting and I really enjoyed the talk given by lifelounge.  Quite inspiring.  So I guess that is all for now and I will be posting again soon!

old photos

i took these when i was waiting in a queue for petrol up at whitfords one day....petrol was going for 1.26 a litre...i thought it was funny coz this reminded me of back home in zimbabwe when we used to queue for petrol (we didnt queue coz we wanted fuel that was cheaper, we queued just to get fuel just to survive).   the photo on the left is  in Perth Australia, the right is Harare in Zimbabwe.
