QotW: My Commute

nobody@vox.com(RobiNZ) — Sat, 19 Jul 2008 00:30:49 +1200

How do you travel to and from work - personal vehicle, bus, subway/train, pedal power? What does it cost you per week in gas or fares?
Submitted by Jan.

I travel by car, the 2.0 Litre Ferrari below, and do about 230 km/week for $43 gas to/from work. It's a 35-45 minute commute (each way) which would take OVER TWO HOURS, and cost more, on public transport...

QotD: I'm Not Telling

What question do you hate being asked?

"What is your sign?"

I now answer with, as best as I can remember it, this "Astrology explained" quote from Richard Dawkins...

"My sign is a miscellaneous set of stars, all at different distances from us, which have no connection with each other except that they constitute a (meaningless) pattern when seen from a certain (not particularly special) place in the galaxy (here)"

All I wanted to know was how much SKY HDi costs…

A sky, a jet

As I write someone is being interviewed on TV, a British show, and the sky above is crisscrossed with contrails. I noticed them in the US when there, especially Florida. In New Zealand they are a rare sight, a good one enough to justify a photo.

The flight from Queenstown?

Vox Hunt: Red, White and Blue

nobody@vox.com(RobiNZ) — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 18:33:32 +1200

In honor of Independence Day, show us something patriotic (mine is red, white and blue but is Kiwi!).

This was for a sponsorship proposal. We did one with an NZ Flag, one with the Fern but both looked a bit drab. Playing around with Corel's powerclip feature I put the flag in the fern and this, with a bit of envelope distortion added, was the result.
