We went out last night to see GUD, one of Paul McDermott’s shows as a part of the comedy festival. I found it slow to start, and painful at first due to the sound system muffling the voices. Then the audience was treated to an obnoxious woman heckling continuously until eventually Paul told her quite simply to shut up or he would sing a song about her…and it wouldn’t be very nice. Mick Moriaty of the Gadflys played guitar and straightman, Cameron Bruce keyboards and demented sex maniac. Paul just was himself. Assorted popular song medleys using Osama Bin Laden and the Taliban were one highpoint, and a running gag about not being able to use any of their material about the Queen Mother now that she’s died.
Flat battery again this morning, jump started the motorbike. It really is getting to be time to replace the battery. Maybe when I get back from the NSW bike ride in a week or so…
Uploaded a bunch of photos from the Easter DTT ride, the , and of last month and of this one — strangely enough, not one of the photos is of bikes or cycling, all seem to be of beer, food or pubs.
On to more technical stuff, I perused some of Asad’s notes on P2P computing (hate that term), and started some more thoughts on what I should be doing with all my many and varied bookmarks and references and maybe they should be in an XBEL database somewhere….
