impworks Link Section Coming Soon
Monday, January 22nd, 2007I spent several annoying hours today trying to find free link directory scripts for my impworks site that worked with smarty templates.

Apocalypto
Sunday, January 21st, 2007Just in from seeing Apocalypto which was a lot better than I’d expected. I was afraid it was going to turn out to be a bit of a The Thin Red Line. Sorry if you liked The Thin Red Line for me it was just pretentious and far too pretty. I was really worried Apocalypto […]

One for future social historians
Sunday, November 26th, 2006Sometimes it’s the little things in life that make me think why? Today I needed a new kitchen timer. I didn’t want anything fancy. I didn’t want to spend a lot of money.
