To The Borg, are you Christian?

Hi Haydn.

Yes, I'm a Christian. :)

Cool. If you don't mind me asking, which fellowship do you attend?

5:23 PM  
Blogger The Borg said...

No worries. :)

I got to Crossroads Pressy in Hobart, which I enjoy muchly.

Ah, Tassy. I love Tassy. I trekked Cradle Mountain to Lake St Clair 3 years ago. One of the best things I did. I woke up with a leach on the tip of the tongue on New Years Day 2003 :)

Ewwwww!

But yeah, Tassie is great, isn't it? These photos are genuine Tassie pics, taken from near my place.

Sadly, you now have to pay $100 if you want to do the Cradle Mountain trek. Too many people wanted to take the beauty home with them, so now they're putting a tax on it!:(

:( Boo hiss to tax. We already pay enough of it. I can understand why, though. The track is overused, which can lead to soil erosion.

The leach wasn't too bad. Slippery and slimy, and I felt the welt on my tongue a few days after :P

Whoever is in charge of cleaning the outhouse in the top image really has a crap job.

WCSN,

we haven't seen you for a while!

Your photos remind me of that 'Notpron' game, Shiloh. They have a beautiful blue wash to them, did you make that or was that the natural light?

You should make a game like Notpron that doesn't have as many geeky puzzles, but that still requires lateral thinking. :)

Oh Shiloh, I just realised that your title reminds me so much of Cold Comfort Farm - "I saw something nasty in the woodshed" Have you read/seen it?

Hey Borg, we have your minister David Jones speaking at our two day conference here in Sydney. I heard him yesterday - so very good.

Blogger Giraffe Pen (기린 만년필) said...

I didn't know we were having a conference, Nixter

5:29 PM  
Blogger Nixter said...

It was at the MTS Preacher's Conference Haydn.

5:51 PM  
Blogger Giraffe Pen (기린 만년필) said...

Cool. Has it been good?

6:04 PM  
Blogger Bron said...

Hey Nixter... he's ours not Shiloh's! :)

I'm glad the preachers conference is good though.

8:42 PM  
Blogger Nixter said...

Ohhhhhhhhhhh he rocks... He taught on Psalm 24, will post up some notes on my blog soon. So do you Borg and Mike all know each other??

If I were to find a little shack in the Aussie bush to be alone and write a novel, I'd use the one you have in your first picture :)

Blogger mike said...

Bron and Borg went to school with me... I have lots of good stories ;)

5:51 AM  
Blogger mike said...

Although they are a little younger than I (being the "mature" man that I am).

5:51 AM  
Blogger Giraffe Pen (기린 만년필) said...

Well, come on in and share your stories! I'll change the names to protect identities. Bron can be Norb and Borg can be Grob :P

6:00 AM  
Blogger The Borg said...

Norb and Grob! He he he, we sound like pixies!

6:15 AM  
Blogger Giraffe Pen (기린 만년필) said...

Pixies, eh? In all you internet photos you look like a pixie. Like Legolas* in Lord of the Rings.

- H.

I always thought Legolas imbibed one too many a tipple. People who abuse grog tend to get 'legless'.

6:19 AM  
Blogger Nixter said...

AHA It is all becoming clear....

Norb and Grob - like it ;)

3:53 PM  
Blogger Giraffe Pen (기린 만년필) said...

:) Spelling names backwards can be fun

5:27 PM  
Blogger Donners said...

I go to church with Norb too Nixter and Haydn, Hence I can claim DJ too!

Glad you like his stuff, I for one feel very priveledged to have his preaching every week.

Plus Grob is my sister-in-law! So we're all interconnected Ala Tasmania...

Blogger world champ stephen neal said...

I demand more photos, or a new posting.

Greetings, Donners.

6:32 PM  
Blogger Nixter said...

DJ - Rocks!
