The good,the bad and the ugly. The good is Cat Sparks' Conflux photos are up (and that I successfully avoided her camera this time round, which is *very* good): http://www.catsparks.net/gallery/conflux2006/

The bad is that it is now 21 months since I signed a contract for a simple cable connection with Transact.

The ugly is that I am becoming increasingly angry about people not being able to ring me in work hours because I have to work online. People trying to ring me are also getting angry. Right now a mediator is trying to get Transact to say "we can do this" or "we can't do this" so we can cancel the whole thing and I can go broadband. Getting them to admit they can't do their end of the contract has so far taken a month.

Almost as good as old-fashioned chocolate: http://houseoffame.blogspot.com/2006/06/ocks-menne.html

I like the thought of Ockham as a leader of superheroes. I especially like the notion that Ockham's razor landed him in a wheelchair. Ockham's razor is a dangerous thing.

My, but it's a busy week. The Australian Speculative Fiction Carnival is up now, here: http://girliejones.livejournal.com/462826.html

All your weekend reading has been presented to you on a platter. My favourite post of the month is Jenny Fallon's. Her evil overlord helps her talk to a Greenpeace bod.
