ElePHPant Haven

So, I've finally switched from the MathsSpam question to reCAPTCHA. Now you just need to be able to read, rather than doing complex addition up to 10 + 10 in your head/with a calculator.

Also, I'll be announcing something that's big for me soonish. I don't expect much of you to care about it though.

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D

There's details somewhere, with more information getting added as Bernard figures it out.

Garfield and Pooky have it figured out.

Finally!

I did a really big boo-boo. Like, a really massive one. It was bad. Luckily I had a 2 day old backup so not all was lost.

Straight from the mouth of the yomcat:

The Phoenix won tonight, so they are going to finish 4th. That means there is a home playoff on the 21st (that's next Sunday). Huge game.
I'll be buying tickets on Monday, so I need to know numbers by then. Tickets are $35 for an adult, and $20 for child/student/old bugger. Tell me by email, phone, in person, however. I'll make a big list on my blackboard.
Oh, don't be too greedy. I can only get 24...

If you want to come but don't want to tell Michael, I can pass the request on.

And (from the Stuff home page):

Turns out NZQA thinks I'm not completely stupid :)

Cutting Edge happened and, in the words of Caleb, was awesome. I can only share a few of the photos I took publicly due to privacy laws, so have a picture of some moths that looked way cooler in person than in this photo:

At Cutting Edge, every leader had to give a testimony to the assembled masses. In typical fashion, I write some notes, read them sometimes and made more up. I feel like sharing with the internets as well.

My notes were:

I'm leaving All Saints for an undetermined amount of time. Lets put this down to burnout for now.

Also, to the one person that actively talks to me, thanks and you're awesome.

Is trying to kill me.

I'm currently winging my way back from camp. It was great fun and there was even girls there (not just the normal girl).

Such a pity that it's the last camp I get to attend as a student. I mean, someone needs to provide wifi.

If you invite me to something and spend the majority of the time talking about what you did with someone else that has no bearing on me, or talking to someone else about what you plan to do that excludes me, don't expect me to enjoy the occasion, have fun or want to be present at a repeat of the event.

Try actually including me if you invite me somewhere.

Man, Slashdot's actually got some decent commenters. Another quote from there, this time in relation to an article on the NZ Police's new MITM powers:

I always think that privacy went out the window for a large percentage of the population (though more for young people) once they realised they could exchange privacy for attention or the illusion of getting attention on sites like Facebook.
