Just like the Australians to bust out with the Moth Blog Worlds and appoint all Australian judges. I suppose it should rationally go to the country with the highest top three finishers at worlds, and nobody else seems to be taking the initiative, so I say more power. To the people.
Funny thing about virtual mothing - it's a lot like a parallel universe to real mothing, and we know that parallel lines never meet. Stuff happens over here, but nothing happens over there, and vice-versa. So while I'm sitting here typing I should really be out in the garage trimming bulkheads, but after working eleven hours sticking sharp objects into people I stopped off and had a nice meal and a beer at the local watering hole, and now it's 9pm and I just want to chill out and do a little virtual mothing while my brain decompresses. Perfect. It's like somebody said - those who can, do, and those who can't, write. When impossibly charismatic and beautiful barmaids introduce themselves and tell me to have another beer, I do. But it interferes with my writing.
There have been a lot of hints here about stuff happening in my garage. When I am done with them and have had a chance to see how they work, I will post about it, but not until then. It might cost me a place on the podium at Blog Worlds, but whoever said that stuff about swords and pens has obviously never been in a swordfight. I mean, where is the Amac blog about the development of the Bladerider? Speaking of which, if you should venture out to Skye, be sure to look this guy up. It's in a little industrial park, but well worth the trip. And be sure to order yours about a year in advance - just like your Moth.
nice wind up, Kiwi's love being called Aussies....
ReplyDeleteAs long as they're not French, I think we'll be OK.
ReplyDeleteWhateva ... I may stink, but I've got a cool accent.
ReplyDeleteCalling me an Aussie is very insulting - watch out for rule 69!!!
ReplyDeleteWell if you're truly not a closet Aussie, why did you name a bunch of Aussies as frontrunners in the Mothoshpere Worlds before the competition even started? Certainly that shows more than a bit of Pro-Wallaby treason...At any rate, Nige is just trying to deflect attention from his own national identity crisis, so don't pay too much attention.
ReplyDeletei bigged you up. do not pay attention to brownie, he likes sheep too much to be an aussie.
