VFP: OzFox 2007 update – Rick Schummer joins as a speaker
This post has both good and bad news…
Firstly, we regret to report that Craig Boyd has had to withdraw from OzFox due to a family emergency. This is a sad turn of events, and we wish Craig and his family all the best during this difficult time.
Secondly however, we are very pleased to advise that [...]

PERSONAL: Back in Sydney
As I write this on the plane flight home I am a mix of emotions…
On one hand I am really glad to be home. It is difficult living in someone else’s place for 6 weeks (and trying to work remotely at the same time), especially when you need to get everywhere by car (and I [...]

PERSONAL: Getting ready to leave
Wow, those 6 weeks have flown by. Sadly, Michele and I are leaving Minneapolis tomorrow, returning home to Sydney.
It has been a fantastic time here, and although the time has gone quickly, so much has happened. When we arrived Jackie was very pregnant, and a week later she gave birth to a super healthy boy [...]

PERSONAL: Spreading car joy
I’m feeling pretty bad tonight. Tonight I scraped the side of one of James and Jackie’s cars against a concrete pillar. But in order to appreciate the ’specialness’ of this event you need to know that a few weeks ago I scraped the side of their other car (against a neighbour’s car). Yep, in under 4 [...]

Read Full Post | Make a Comment ( None so far )OPINION: Minnesota driving rules
There are two road rules in Minnesota (and probably most of the US) that I really like.
The first is that U Turns are legal everywhere. In Sydney (and most of Australia) they are illegal (you cop a fine and lose points).
The second is the ‘Turn right on red’ anywhere rule. This is similar to [...]

PERSONAL: A White New Year
Happy New Year everyone!
Finally we get to see some great snow. We were hoping for a white Christmas last week (and missed out) but this morning all we can see is white (pictures here). It all started last night when we were out shopping (at yet another mall…) and it started piling down.
This morning we [...]
