Name your band

Sunday, February 22nd, 2009

This is kind of fun:

here’s a totally random way to make your new random band’s new random album cover. Post one! Go to “Wikipedia.” Hit “random” and the first article you get is the name of your band. Then go to “Random Quotations” and the last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album. Then, go to Flickr and click on “Explore the Last Seven Days” and the third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

Here is mine:

Enmore Theatre or Opera House

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

Perhaps you can help…?

Given the choice of seeing Basement Jaxx at the Enmore or The Mingus Big Band at the Opera House, what would you do?

(See this vid if you are wondering who the mingus big band are…)

Word macros for flowcharting in Word 2007

Tuesday, February 10th, 2009

For the Moore students reading:

If you’ve had problems with the word macros at lionelwindsor.com you’re not alone… I couldn’t get them to work at all with word 2007! I have changed the code so it does work and some brief install instructions are included.

If you have any use for such things…head to the ‘other files‘ section of my language tools

Indulgences are back

Get em while they’re hot. (or get your theses ready to nail to some roman catholic church doors depending on your score in the reformation test)

Jodie has promised to post

She keeps telling me that she will post on Reubenland soon. I’m putting it in writing and hoping that she makes good on it!

Come on Jodes!!

We have a dog!

Monday, February 9th, 2009

After almost 3 year of sustained hinting from Jodie I confronted the reality that her desire to have a canine companion was not going to fade…so shortly before Christmas (on our way to Adelaide) we got ‘Winnie’:

Yes I know, at least one of the females in the pic is good looking ;-)

So far I like having a dog around the house. Her best feature is her inability to expend energy continuously. We get home and she goes nuts for about 15 mins, then pretty much lies on the floor comatose for the next few hours recovering.

Thanks to those who offered name suggestions on Jodie’s facebook! I was a fan of Boxy’s suggestion ‘Sarah Palin’
