howie’s halfpipe

Today I went up to work for morning tea, then I began my trip to hazelbrook. I had a really good run on the train it only took 2 hours to get there and then only 2 hours to get back.
I thought I was set I had jack johnson’s and diesel. But after reaching about Penrith I realised that the jack cd case was empty. So for rest of the journey up and the whole journey back I had no music.
It was raining quite a lot in the mountains, so I got a bit wet walking to steves house. To the point that the inside of my shoes where like little mini swimming pools. I got to steves house and sat for a bit and he gave me his camera. Then on the way back to the station, it was raining much harder. I was quite wet.
I ran into Aislin on the way and she asked if I had been visiting Andrew, she said he was next door at barry’s house. So there you go everyone Andrew Bevis is in the country. I didn’t go back to visit cause my train was coming very soon.

Now I’m home. I’m thinking of doing an all nighter to get this wedding video edited and out of my life.

Oh and in my walking in the rain I wrote a bit of “unformed stool of a broken man”

My poor little scooter is getting a bit sick i think. Today as i was scooting to work i noticed the front wheel was making a noise that it didnt use to make. But its doing better than ryans scooter, well my wheels are still going strong ryans seems to have really dodgy wheels.

the problem with scooters is that its really hard to stop in the wet, infact today i was very close to stacking big time. Going down bridge road i couldnt slow down my foot was on the little brake but that didnt do anything. THere where 2 girls watching me go donw the the road too so i had to look all cool and in control.

i ended up putting one foot down on the road and sliding it along the ground, it worked i slowed down enough to turn up the lane.

the question on everyones lips is “so when is howie going to bring out an album?”

Well the answer is july the 24th 2008

It will be called Implosion of the bursting brain

Today was the first of hopefuly many get togethers for a bunch of christian youth workers in the area. We shared our stories and what we are doing, and we prayed together and ate pide, it was a lot of fun. And its great to see what other christian youth worlers are up to in the area, cause we are worling for the same bloke.

The girl in front of me on the train this morning had Nikki Websters autograph in a scrap book. She went to the ARIAS last night and got lots of autographs. But it made me chuckle that the first one in the book was Nikki Webster.

I shouldnt listen to other peoples conversations but they are so interesting.

Its raining

My whole world has gone crazy is some form or another.
Some good crazy, some bad crazy, some undecided crazy.

Its weird. Everything is changing, I’m changing, the people and places and things around me are changing.

Its all about transitions…maybe?

Sorry everyone but comments have been turned off until further notice due to comment spamming exeeding 1,000 comments per day from some stupid online casino.

sorry for inconvenience caused.

hopefuly the halfpipe technicians can fix this problem.

Both myself and jenny both bought new Cd’s today.

We both bought Jack Johnson “on and on”

I bought this CD a few days ago for the cafe and then decided i needed a copy for myself cause its so good.
So i bougt one today.

But then later in the day i had a craving for another CD so i went and bought another one. This tim josh and jen both came across to the shops too.
I bought Diesel “singled out”

Man they are both such good Cd’s and today has been a 2 play day for both of them which is just awsome.

the good old CD constitution it keeps me sane.

I found out just then that i was born in the year of the dog…good old 1982.

Thats exciting i really am a dog

Is nothing something?

I would just like to say, how good is burning stuff. It doesnt matter how big it is or for how long you burn Its just burning stuff is the bomb.

I was searching my brain tonight for a poo story cause they always seem to go down well on the old blog. But i think i’m out the only one i can think of is about someone i know who went on a trek or a hike somewhere with friends and went into the bush to do a poo. then the next day she stepped in it.

sorry its all i got.

Not quite sure if it’s a relief or if now its just going to rest harder on my conscious.

Today one of the peoples whom wedding video I haven’t finished yet cam to visit me at work. He wasn’t very happy, as I can understand. Anyway he has asked me to give hi the tapes by next week (un-edited) and that I have to repay him $200. He is going to go and get it edited somewhere else. I didn’t bother saying much cause I could tell if I opened my mouth he would have just got angrier so ijust quietly agreed and now here I am in this strange position.
Its not good that it came to this, really not good.

I tell you wedding videos are of the devil.

Anyway I’m not sure if the weight has been lifted off my shoulders in some way. Now I don’t have to edit the video but I do have to pay 200 bucks and I have made a man quite frustrated.

I don’t know.

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggg
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I tell you the video guy at my wedding is gonna get to sit at the front table with me and the wife. He has made a bigger commitment to making the video than it is to get married.

Wedding videos grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Today there was a terrorist attack on my blog from some texan online casino. They left over 2,000 commnets strecthed across all my blog posts.

Its really quite rude.

Luckily i was able to delete them alsmost all at once.

Well, here I am. I’m Tom and I thought it might be fun to drop in to say “G’day”.

What you see above is an exclusive photo of me with a moustache. It is the first ever released photo of my extended nasal hair taken at 7am on Tuesday morning. I think my mo makes me look sleazy, and my I say that I shaved it off about 10 minutes after the photo was taken.

Please don’t think I usually pose like that for photos. I look like a knob.

Is it rude to say “knob”?

I figure that Howie doesn’t usually talk theology on his blog so maybe I should spout a few Bible references around and talk about sanctification and pre-destination. I can show my biblical prowess and hope that people are impressed.

I have noticed that theological training isn’t really attractive to the ladies. I don’t think it’s really unattractive either. Perhaps it seems boring to some, but I don’t think anyone is all that impressed. I was told tonight that to attract women you need eye contact. “Damn!” I thought “All this time I’ve been impressing them with Bible quotes and I should have been just looking at them in the eyes.” I’ll tell ya, Bible college fees are a lot of money to pay just to impress the women. I should have gotten a car. I hear they impress women.

I mean what woman wouldn’t get excited by a machine that looks nice, goes fast, and is painted shiny red? It’s just like good finger nails but on a larger scale. I wonder how many guys find long finger nails attractive? I tend to find them a little scary myself. I’d rather keep away from sharp objects. Women are scary enough, but women with sharp pointy things on the ends of their digits… Yikes!

I’m running a “Love Advice” segment in church on Sunday night, so I guess I’m just warming up. I don’t really know much about the whole love thing, but I have learnt this: While giving a Mars bar to the object of your affection may be a nice gesture, giving half a Mars bar is just kinda gross.

And a bit embarrassing too I’ve realised. Like when they tell you that the caramel went all over their pillow while the chocolate melted waiting for them to come and find it.

Anyway, I think I’ll be off now. It has been fun visiting. Howie is a magical man, and it’s nice to play a small part in his magical blog.

canned dog food is one of the grossest things in the whole world.

It gets stuck between your teeth and has the worst after taste.

but seriously it is really gross its just the left over bits from sliced up dead animals probably ex race horses. Just the bits that fall on the floor when they are cutting up a horse to make a uhu glue stick. THey pick up the scraps and stuff it into a can and seel is at “pal” or “my dog”.

it disguisting, it stinks and cleaning the can out is the worsest.
If dog food touches your fingeres, they smell for hours, no amount of soap can penitrate the smell of dead horse bits.

I’m a very beautiful man
