I'm playing Chrono Cross on the Playstation at the moment, and it is one kick-ass RPG... in fact, I would go as far as to say that it kicks ass! I've clocked up about 35 hours so far, and I'm just on the 2nd CD now. It's even got a few eye-opening theories on evolution, not wholly unlike Xenogears' views on God. Check it out:
"The life forms on this planet developed from single-celled microorganisms to protozoans, then from fish to amphibians, from reptiles to mammals and eventually to humans. Beginning with a cerebal neocortex, which only exists in higher mammals, the anthropod brain enlarged at an accelarated pace until it became the human brain we know. Could the reason for the abnormal development of the human brain be the biological contamination caused by Lavos (an alien meteor, fallen to earth in prehistoric times wiping out dinosaur life)? That would mean that humans are really a heterogeneous life-form, or "foreign matter", as far as the planet is concerned. Humans are a sudden mutation caused by the contact with Lavos -- an alien life form that fell to this planet from space. That is why humans are, biologically speaking, unbalanced and half-finished. Internally inconsistant and disconnected, the human existence is plagued by contradictions. An incomplete species, torn between love and hatred, who's very being is self-contradictory. From the planet's viewpoint,humans are just destroyers and a cursed, yet perhaps pathetic, blight on the world" |

Last Tuesday was Planet MadDog's most popular day yet, with a mammoth (well, for me anyway) 71 unique hits for the day! Thanks to everyone who visited me on Tuesday, even if you did just check out the BBQ pics, but I hope you did have a bit of a look around and find at least one reason to come back some time. On an unrelated note, according to my stats package someone found Planet MadDog typing "fat hairy women" into a search engine. Another guy found it by "Geoff Jantz"... Go figure. |

Well, after a year or so of development time, including 147+ hours of programming from Noel, not to mention my time from making templates, designing, planing, and coordinating the project, OzChat 2 has gone live, leaving the original OzChat in it's dust. OzChat 2 is a completely templated, database driven, super happy, hyper plus extra extra mega EX revolutionary webchat borne from the ideas and concepts of myself and the other OzChatters. If you're not already registered, click da damn link and sign yourself up. There are still a few bugs, and the speed will improve when we move the server to a 100Meg ether, but until then it still kicks the aardvarks aass, so enjoy. |

To view my eagerly awaited OzChat BBQ pictures for this year, go through, as usual, to the Output section. There are also a selection of pics from Camp Runamuck, held at Moira Park after the BBQ. Sorry for the delay. They've actually been online since the day after the BBQ, but I didn't want to link them through until I had put the 5 video clips online. They still aren't there yet, but they should be up in the next couple of days. I'll keep you posted.
Enjoy |

Being part of OzChat's Admin Team we get some strange emails from some strange people on some strange topics so I thought I'd share with you my top 3 emails and Hatch's responses. Enjoy.

Hi,
I am looking for the chocolate math formula that ends with the number I chose and my age in the last 2 digits.
Can you help?
Thankyou
Melissa

G'day Melissa,
I'm sorry, this is a web chat and chocolate maths isn't something we provide as a service. I would love to provide chocolate, but maybe not the maths part, as that is a tad strange for me. I'm sorry though, we don't have any chocolate, but if you can provide some chocolate to me on the other hand, I would be very grateful. *grin*

G'day,
Your search for bisexual muscle men will have to continue, there are no such people of that description here I'm sorry.
I haven't been training for 10 years, and I'm not serious, and my upper body is in rather poor shape indeed, so I can't help you either, oh, and I'm not bisexual.
Good luck in your quest for the holy grail of bisexual muscle men.
Regards,
Braden | |

Now you can find out about exactly what kind of digital camera I ended up getting, and whether or not I am finally happy. Go through the Output section. |

Yes, it was my birthday on Saturday. Thanks to all who gave their birthday greetings. I had a great night and got some great pressies, and I've got the pics to prove it. They're not online yet, as I've been having some computer problems at home trying to get my new DVD drive going. As soon as they're up, I'll let you know. In the meantime, I've made a few other changes. The 'Mailing List' sign-up form that used to be on the side bar is gone. I've come to terms with the reality that a) people dont like signing up for mailing lists, and b) I really can't be stuffed to write a regular mail-out. Also, I've added a link to my News Archives right there under the Webcam link. |

That's right pupketeers! If you cast your gaze to the navigation to your left, you will see a new Webcam link. Now you can see what I'm up to whenever I'm online at home. It has all your regular webcammy goodness, however the picture can sometimes be a bit on the dark side. I assure you this is not because the lights are off. In fact I've got so many bloody lights pointing at me its not funny. And yes, this does mean that I've solved my digital camera woes, and yes, I'm finally happy. I'll update the digital camera story a bit later, with some sample pics. Anyway, I'll keep trying to fix that darkness problem, but in the meantime, enjoy the cam. |

Last Friday night was the best night out I've had for a long time. This post is a bit late, but I've had other things on my mind lately. I met Braden at Flannigans at 9:00pm (after he told me to meet him at 8:30pm, slack bastard :o) and another mate Murl came a little bit later on. Anyway, we'd noticed this odd-looking drunken fellow wandering around the pub. He'd walk up to a table, hover around for a bit, then move on. But then he came to our booth and started talking to Braden. I dont know exactly what it is, but Braden must just seem approachable to drunken people. He was talking to Braden for a bit while me and Murl looked at each other as if to say "Just piss off fella. Can't you see we're trying to talk here?". But Braden was having a ball, talking to this guy and generally taking the piss out of him in a way that a drunken guy wouldn't notice.  He had disappeared for a while and we were about to piss off on him but someone was off having a slash, so we had to wait. When we were all together again, we were going to leave, but then the dude showed up again, this time with an armful of beers. Then it was different. We thought "Hey, this guy's not too bad afterall!" and sat back down. The guy's name is Gary and he told us of his many adventures of being an interstate truck driver and part time builder. Topics of conversation varied from "some poor bastard getting squashed by a big fuckin' truck" to "Tha bloody missus wants me to give up the piss, but fuck that!". It generally made the night more interesting, but the time came when Gary's unique slant on life became somewhat stale and we decided to move on.  We told Gary that we were going to go gome, then I took a couple of photos before we left. Of course we didnt go home, but we didn't want him folowing us around for the rest of the night. We then went across the road to the Full House Salloon. Guess who we saw 5 minutes later? Yup. We were like ninja's, hiding in the shadows as not to be seen. We soon got bored of the Saloon and after Murl decided to go home, we headed across to the Aussie. While there, Braden was approached by, yep, you guessed it, a drunken dude who muttered some bizzre unintelligible shit to him, then pissed of somewhere else (thankfully). After the Aussie closed and we were kicked out out, we headed to the Yahoo Bar to chill for a bit. It was a bit dead there so we only stayed for a bit before we went home. Overall, I had a great night which made me realise that I could still go for a night out drinkin' with da boyz and still have fun. |
