Re: The totally off-topic thread

Was there a black-out in Brisbane this afternoon? Still looks very dark around Toowong right now. I am leaving work soon and I hope the trains are not affected.

After my last visit to BNE, I didn't realise that electriciy had found its way there yet

(seriously though - isn't there a pay dispute up there?)

Re: The totally off-topic thread

I don't know about pay disputes. I got paid last Thursday so no issues here. Better go now as internet usage at work is monitored....

No. I finish work around 5:00-5:30pm and work is the only place I can use the internet without paying.

I can go to internet cafes and pay ~$6/hour or bring my laptop to Brisbane with me and either connect to the dial-up connection in the apartment or get connected to a wireless plan. Better off leaving the laptop at home and use the internet sparingly at work and hopefully no one will notice or say anything....

I can't stop watching and listening to this clip. I know most people would not understand it but it has a wonderful rhythm and melody....
