The Chronicles Of... The Chronicles Of... This is the chronicles of Pete, Dicker and Chris. This website is, I guess, a continuation of the playground stories, and also a reflection on the ones which are now folk lore. It's a place for us to just throw down not only the stories and thoughts Articles
?holiday(s are over)?
2008-01-09 14:42:00 So I’m back in town, and back into the swing of things. The house we stayed in was really nice, just across the road from the beach with very nice views of the ocean and an island (which was pretty much in the ocean). On our first trip to the beach I caught my first ... More About: Holiday , Travels , General , Pete
Xmas or Christmas
2008-01-09 04:23:00 Ok… Essay question… From a christian perspective, “Xmas ” is a perfectly suitable abreviated substitute for “Christmas ”. Discuss. I must say, i was quite precious about the whole thing up until recently. I ran with the whole “it’s taking the Christ out of Christmas” line, but then it was pointed out to me that “X” is the letter “Chi” ... More About: General
(a boring) absentee note
2008-01-09 04:21:00 So I’ve been absent from the blog world for a while now… But I have been doing things. I’ve managed to build myself a desk/office up in the youth room at church which folds away into a lockable cupboard so I can leave my stuff up there while other people use the room, niiiice!

Hello 2008
2008-01-04 00:19:00 Ok, so it’s a little late for the whole first blog of ‘08 for me and that… but I got excited and just had to write this somewhere… While having a little look at Facebook I noticed that Laurie mentioned something about the Olympics in his status. It’s an Olympic year people!! How good is that?! There ... More About: General , Chris , 2008
Holiday?
2008-01-01 00:28:00 …no, not the Madonna song, but the actual event of having a break from my regular life. We’re about to head down to the south coast of NSW to enjoy some sun, water, and quiet. It’s been a good year, but with plenty of challenges, and although challenges can be good, often I’d rather just have ... More About: Holiday , General , Pete

MacGyver
2007-12-22 00:27:00 So I just popped over to my parents place for a short while and noticed that they have season 4 of MacGyver on DVD! I think I remember loving the show as a kid, so tossed up whether I should watch it or not cause old TV show usually are no where as good as you ... More About: Macgyver , General , Chris
Tired.
2007-12-20 11:12:00 The last few weeks have been very tiring. Every day I’ve arrived at home feeling more exhausted than the day before, and have struggled to stay awake more than a few minutes after stumbling through the door. This evening has been much the same, so I ordered pizza (The Swiss Wood Fire place at Caringbah ... More About: General , Pete , Tired , Tire

The Smiths
2007-12-19 05:13:00 I always like to think that I’m the one who influences my brother’s taste in everything, because, you know I’m older and everything, and the older brother is always cooler… However, thanks to James I’ve now become a masive Smiths (and Morrisey) fan. It all started with James playing me some songs and showing me Morrisey live ... More About: Music , General , The Smiths
iTunes
2007-12-18 11:35:00 So I bought my first few songs on iTunes the other day… My goodness it would be SO easy to spend a lot of money! Then I realised that once you enter your password you can continue downloading songs and almost forget that you’re paying for them, and the funny thing is you could even get rid ...

The Fuzz
2007-12-14 00:10:00 The other day I had a little excitement, a first for myself, I was pulled over by the police! He followed me for a little bit and when I turned the corner he lit up his colourful lights, he asked to see my license, breathalised me and then went on his way. So not much excitement in ...

Good Recovery
2007-12-13 05:42:00 My ipod battery started to go on the fritz about 2 weeks ago, the thing just wouldn’t hold charge… But in an amazing turn around the pod has fought back from the fritz and is podding along just nicely now, holds charge and everything! What’s the deal? Apple makes pods that can recover in time just ... More About: Recovery , General , Good

2007-12-12 08:10:00 Although it doesn’t happen very often, I like to rejoice when my life parallels that of The Sopranos, so I was very pleased when I realised this morning that I now have a friend called Artie who owns an Italian (pizza) restaurant. Please note that I am not suggesting that our Artie is anything like ... More About: General , Pete
Our rabbit
2007-12-09 14:04:00 Our rabbit chewed through our computer keyboard cable this morning. i’ve had the keyboard since I bought the PC, but it’s OK… I replaced the keyboard with a new one I bought from reverse garbage for $2.00! What a bargain. I love that place. More About: General

I went?
2007-12-08 13:54:00 I went to Artie’s new pizza shop at 33 Maloney St, Roseberry (Eastern suburbs of Sydney for the geographically challenged). Pizzeria is called “2 Fat Olives”. Pizza is great, good price, staff is friendly but that’s mostly because I’m friends with the staff - but I’m sure others will find the same experience. Order 02 ... More About: General , Went
Turducken
2007-12-05 12:09:00 Word on the street is that there might be a Turducken dinner party this weekend. The hosts mum was on the hunt for the duck, whilst the host himself was trying to source a Turkey, apparently not the easiest bird to get a hold of in Dubbo. But it turns out that the season is almost ... More About: General
Twelve
2007-12-05 12:05:00 So I’m loving the random setting on my iPod (oh, did I mention my impulse buy following YY Weekend?!) I heard a song from the Twelve Compilation, and Nat asked something like what is this garbage… But it felt good, it may not have been the best song on the album, or even one I like ...

Public Transport
2007-12-04 08:53:00 I caught the train from Lewisham to the city this morning in peak hour - 8:00am… I don’t think I’ve really done that before… ever. When I caught the train for wark as a tradesman, it was always at 6:00am, which is hardly peak hour. I’m not sure if it was a good experience or not… on ...

What happens on ?YY Weekend?, stays on ?YY Weekend??
2007-12-03 02:45:00 …mainly because although I took the camera, there wasn’t much to photograph. The weather was a bit wet for most of the weekend, so a lot of our time was spent indoors in the loungeroom (or at McDonald’s). Much FIFA was played, much iPod listened to, and much (?) card games were played. We ate, drank, ... More About: Travels , General , Weekend , Pete , Stays
makes you think, don?t it?
2007-11-28 07:03:00 We can look in wonder at the sheer size of the universe we live in, or marvel at the intricate detail of the cells that make up our bodies, but still, so many people think this all happened as the result of an explosion of… well… nothing… makes sense to me… More About: General , Tube , Pete
Lady in the water
2007-11-24 06:57:00 I saw this movie with Fi last night because a friend from work recomended it to her… It was dumb. M. Night Shyamalan was the director, and I liked the sixth sense, but this was dumb. Fi might say some good things about this movie on her blog, but all you’ll get from me is… dumb.

Americans are strange (part 9)

2007-11-16 05:55:00 It would be wrong to suggest that I completed a 2 year diploma of theology just so I could reward myself with a double movie boxset of Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the dead - for starters Hot Fuzz wasn’t even out when I started my diploma, and secondly the privilege of studying God’s Word full time ...
