Thanks Eisbär!

Here is a photo from Saturday night:

I'm not sure what the conversation was about, but it looks engrossing!

i was gonna say that you look A LOT LIKE TRAYCE, kate ... then i clicked on the picture.

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Sunday, 29 May 2005 21:50 (twenty years ago)

and it is not a CLOVE cigarette, the BIGGEST shock of them all!

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Sunday, 29 May 2005 21:51 (twenty years ago)

She has a nice glass of apple juice though.

― mullygrubbr (bulbs), Sunday, 29 May 2005 21:55 (twenty years ago)

i just clicked through the pics ... it looks like kate is smoking a cigarette in a shopping mall. YOU CAN STILL SMOKE IN SHOPPING MALLS DOWN THERE?!?

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Sunday, 29 May 2005 21:57 (twenty years ago)

Apple juice. Har har Gaz ;P

― Trayce (trayce), Sunday, 29 May 2005 22:01 (twenty years ago)

I'd put mine up but... wel, I just havent yet ;P Mine didnt come out that great anyway.

Wait - clicked thru what pics? I only see one there.

― Trayce (trayce), Sunday, 29 May 2005 22:02 (twenty years ago)

I like how all you can see of Nick is his legs, he looks like he's passed out next to me.

― Trayce (trayce), Sunday, 29 May 2005 22:03 (twenty years ago)

when you click on kate's pic above, it takes you to the online gallery -- it has previous and next keys, to get to other pics in the gallery.

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Sunday, 29 May 2005 22:04 (twenty years ago)

When I click on it it just goes to a pic with no links or galleries.

― Trayce (trayce), Sunday, 29 May 2005 22:17 (twenty years ago)

it does? you can?

mine don't.

xpost same same

― mullygrubbr (bulbs), Sunday, 29 May 2005 22:18 (twenty years ago)

Ah! I see. I had images off, and when yo do that it doesnt have the html thingys.

― Trayce (trayce), Sunday, 29 May 2005 22:18 (twenty years ago)

That isn't a pic of me at the shopping centre, that's my friend! And it's sort of in a foyerish bit, so it's not properly inside :)

― Flava Flavs got problems of his own! / Kate (papa november), Sunday, 29 May 2005 22:30 (twenty years ago)

Oh god, I'm going to go and drink some bleach, I look awful.

― Michael Stuchbery (Mikey Bidness), Sunday, 29 May 2005 22:56 (twenty years ago)

Heh, sorry. I can remove the photo if you like?

I don't think you look terrible, and Darren said to me soon after we left, "he doesn't look half as terrible as he makes out, I thought he'd look like Jabba the Hutt from what he was saying on LJ"

― Flava Flavs got problems of his own! / Kate (papa november), Sunday, 29 May 2005 23:03 (twenty years ago)

Mikey, you look exactly like someone I went to school with, but obviously aren't.

Hooray, I ended up winning. I didn't get home until 3am last night and OMG WTF LOL, on the train from the airport, some guy who works for Qantas totally tried to chat me up! He admitted it - I asked him when he detrained - "Er, were you just trying to pick me up?". "Yeah, I was.".

Must have been the inner glow emanating from someone who's now $500 richer.

― edward o (edwardo), Sunday, 29 May 2005 23:30 (twenty years ago)

what were you playing ed?

my new ipod is finally working. 50gb of music at my fingertips baby (and room to spare)!!

― haitch (haitch), Sunday, 29 May 2005 23:48 (twenty years ago)

you could go walkabout for 750 hours. thats a month non stop listening. leave it on when yr asleep.

― mullygrubbr (bulbs), Sunday, 29 May 2005 23:50 (twenty years ago)

I still dont see the appeal of ipods, considering they : are a mugging risk; have a battery you can't replace when it dies fully; itunes wont let you move songs OFF yr ipod back to yr PC (which is real weird); itunes is confusing; creative Zens and other non Mac players are cheaper.

― Trayce (trayce), Sunday, 29 May 2005 23:52 (twenty years ago)

But, thats just me.

― Trayce (trayce), Sunday, 29 May 2005 23:52 (twenty years ago)

i think i would die without my ipod. that's not to say i wouldn't be equally as satisfied with a creative zen/iriver whathaveyou. also i got rid of the piece of crap white giveaway earbud headphones pretty quick (replaced them with sennheisers, 100% better sound) so i don't feel like it's too much of a mugging risk.

― gem (trisk), Sunday, 29 May 2005 23:55 (twenty years ago)

also you can get 3rd party software to move your songs back to your pc too.

― gem (trisk), Sunday, 29 May 2005 23:56 (twenty years ago)

iTunes is great!! well I think so anyway.

also I try to avoid the mugging risk by using shitty old black earbuds in place of the white Apple ones, heh heh. people probaly think I'm listening to the "wireless".

― haitch (haitch), Sunday, 29 May 2005 23:57 (twenty years ago)

Haitch, I was playing a Scr*bble tournament. Most hilarious word played: WARDCORN. Flew up just for it as with flight costing $200, the $500 prize is MOSTLY PROFIT. Huzzah.

I want an ipod too, but only because I hate seeing people walking around with them. My boss bought one and delights in taunting me with it. "Can you help me with my ipod? I can't copy songs onto it", etc. I'd use crappy old earphones with it, to be less conspicuous. Though I like to think that I wouldn't get mugged because I got told the other day that I look like I can run really really fast. Which is not the case.

x-post gem.

― edward o (edwardo), Sunday, 29 May 2005 23:57 (twenty years ago)

wot does wardcorn mean? well done though.

get an ipod/other small electronic music player ed, i guarantee you won't be sorry! incidentally, i've actually never heard of anyone getting mugged for their ipod... is it a very common occurrence?

― gem (trisk), Sunday, 29 May 2005 23:59 (twenty years ago)

get a big one though, my 20G is full and i'm completely kicking myself for not forking out the extra $100 or whatever for the 40G (60 weren't available when i got mine)

― gem (trisk), Monday, 30 May 2005 00:01 (twenty years ago)

Happens in Englandland I think, quite a bit.

A wardcorn is a payment of corn in lieu of military service. So back in the day, they would have said "Right. You have to go to war now, buddy", and you would have given them lots of corn and said "Are you SURE?" and you'd be excused. That's a wardcorn.

At the moment my cheap MP3 discman goes well enough but it's bulky, and I didn't buy an ipod a while back because I was under the impression that my USB ports didn't work (I built my own computer and thought I'd fucked it up), except I recently found out they actually did. Ho hum. Soon, I shall get one.

― edward o (edwardo), Monday, 30 May 2005 00:05 (twenty years ago)

"wardcorn", effin' hell. that is some high-stakes scr*bble right there!

― haitch (haitch), Monday, 30 May 2005 00:24 (twenty years ago)

No, don't remove the photo!

Nah, I'm only hard on myself because I was almost skinny during my teens and my mind still thinks that way sometimes. Anyhow, it gives me impetus to exercise.

Where did you go to school, Edward?

― Michael Stuchbery (Mikey Bidness), Monday, 30 May 2005 00:36 (twenty years ago)

Hahaha,I'm still laughing at my retarded expression.

― Michael Stuchbery (Mikey Bidness), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:05 (twenty years ago)

you look animated/mid-sentence mikey

― gem (trisk), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:06 (twenty years ago)

Nah, I know it's not you, Michael, as I'm a Brisbanite, and the guy's name was Shawn, and he was (last I heard) trying to get into veterinary science, so unless you've changed your name and job, 'taint you.

― edward o (edwardo), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:08 (twenty years ago)

So, my vile queenslander doppleganger.

It's weird, I photograph very differently. Here's me after I came back from camp.

you're right though you look like another person. i always look the exact same in photos, i think i just have the one dopey sort of expression. i just look slightly dopier when pissed.

― gem (trisk), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:29 (twenty years ago)

hey gaz -- i downloaded and listened to "what's rangoon to you is grafton to me." so are you trying to say that in the 70s all you aussies were crazy acid-freaks who were driving cars when tripping?!?

;-)

it IS a great listen -- amazing that it was done in the late 70s, the sound quality is great!

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:33 (twenty years ago)

I always look pissed! Even when I'm not :/ I look shaggy and dreadful in those satdee pics but I cant complain, I made sod-all effort to doll up to go out.

― Trayce (trayce), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:34 (twenty years ago)

xpost - that is an awesome radio play. they replayed it for 30th anniversary of the station that made it a month or two ago, i hadn't ever heard it before and i was glued to the radio for 3 hours or something.

your hair always looks awesome trayce, what are you talking about. it's a cool colour at the moment.

― gem (trisk), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:35 (twenty years ago)

the best trayce pick is where you are wearing a RUGBY SHIRT (it's in the summer photos thread).

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:35 (twenty years ago)

eisbar - yes. brings back...vague memories.

― mullygrubbr (bulbs), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:37 (twenty years ago)

wait... I dont own a rugby shirt... what the hell? What pic?

― Trayce (trayce), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:44 (twenty years ago)

Do you mean a red top with a number 4 on it?

― Trayce (trayce), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:45 (twenty years ago)

Trayce, your hair always looks brilliant.

I always photograph differently, largely because from day to day I look like about nine different people anyway. "More image changes than a Minogue", somebody told me.

I feel like what I imagine a hangover feels like, even though I have consumed no alcohol this week.

― edward o (edwardo), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:46 (twenty years ago)

it LOOKS like a rugby shirt, but i thought so b/c of the collar. i guess i'm wrong :-o

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:48 (twenty years ago)

Oh you mean that most recent one of me and my dad? Nah, thats just a black woollen jumper that has a white collar sewn into it so it looks like Ive a shirt on underneath!

If thats the one you mean...

― Trayce (trayce), Monday, 30 May 2005 01:55 (twenty years ago)

Looking at it now I can see why you thot rugby shirt, its all crumpled and sloppy looking haha =)

i could never afford to be wasted at uni. i think i may have been drunk maybe three times in first and second years? third year was different, i got drunk a little more often. i remember the first time i got smashed on green ginger wine, i felt invincible

It's hard for me to develop crushes on my lecturers considering I generally don't attend lectures.

― gem (trisk), Thursday, 9 June 2005 04:11 (twenty years ago)

i don't remember any of my tutors or lecturers. i definitely had crushes on a small handful of fellow students though

oh yeah i still have crushes on heaps of students, working in the library is great for it as well as i get to know their names. i'm a bit fickle though, i like to rotate them every day or two.

albini was quoted in the magnetic tape article i think!

i have heard secondhand that mr. albini is a joy to work with if you don't expect him to do anything but capture the sound of you playing. a producer he is not.

― shine headlights on me (electricsound), Thursday, 9 June 2005 04:15 (twenty years ago)
