  • Finding a coffee on Park Road is not hard. Finding a good one isn't a problem either. There is always La Dolce Vita, and most of the other cafes are worth trying too. Including a brand new one called Alegria Mediterranean Bistro & Bar, just next to La Dolce.0November 26, 2010

  • GW Privateroom is the first hairdresser I've been to that offers wine as well as tea or coffee. They also do breakfast. It is a neat little place in Festival towers with free parking for customers and one of the coolest two level layouts I have seen. Hannah recommended the place, and it was a great choice.0November 24, 2010

  • Business cards are archaic. Inscribing some information on a piece of ex-living flora is not a perfect fit for a digital world. Getting the information from its dead tree format into a useable form is annoying. Unless the card has something like a QR code or a smartphone app like CamCard.0November 13, 2010

    CamCard, Business Cards & Less Typing

  • They were wearing weskits. All of them. That was the first thing that I noticed at Dandelion and Driftwood. The cafe itself looked like someone's caffeine-fuelled Victorian corner store with enough technology to add a hint of steampunk. Dandelion & Driftwood is located on Gerler Road in Hendra on Brisbane's northside, just near Mario @ the Dining Room. A real coffee geek I know was raving about the place last week, and as he both knows more than me and strongly recommended the place, I had to check it out.0October 23, 2010

  • A few weeks ago I broke my arm. It was a compound fracture of both my ulna and radius and I did it while walking the bar out from the rack at a powerlifting meet. I was setting up for my second squat of the day when I heard two snaps. Those were my bones. At least my first squat attempt of the day had been good.1October 5, 2010
