I have a box, a square box. It is an apple. I cannot eat the apple, it is electric.
I am the proud owner of an electric square box that is an apple. What his box lacks in nutritional value it makes up for in wires, squareness, light and this fucking brilliant thing called the intraweb! I dont have a clue where the internet came from or how someone could come up with something like this but its awesomeness is so formidable I akin it to something that is on par with God creating light. To loosley quote a noted comic, ‘it’s not like he saw this on holiday and thought, “hmm I could use this back on earth” he made it up! For fucksake free your mind!’
It is brilliant! Not sure where this internet is kept, it must be huge! At least two garages worth. “But love where do we park the car!?” “Fuck knows the internets in there now, things bloody massive! Tell Jason he may have to move his drums, and push the kayak up at the back will you love”. In all honesty I can’t really fathom how all this exists in this box of mine, and how something that is what I think to be transistors and ‘mirco chips’ has made the leap from flashing lights and wirring to giving me music and and images of places I would rather be. To me it seems like somewhere, deep in all the circuits, there has been some tipping point inside my box which has caused this. Much similar to a movie which asked the question ‘when does simple electronic signals become conscious thought? well it’s all over my head, all I know is you are using it right now to look at this blog and later I may or may not laugh at fat people falling over on youtube.
Not 100% sure if I will, but I most definitely could.
Rito fellas, it’s about time that we start using this blog thing as it has been siting doing nothing for a wee while now, and what better time to start using it as next week will be our 3rd AGM to mark three years of trading!
What’s more impressive is that we haven’t lost any money on the whole as we have had a couple of strong performers. The health sector has remained very strong throughout this financial crisis which has supported our ResMed shares which we were convinced to get instead of the mining shares we wanted, thanks Peter
Each year we have marked our AGM by ‘borrowing’ an item of cutlery from our place of eating that evening. 2007 Hugh organised for us eat at Wild Fire where we borrowed their little meat clippers which pierced poor old Pommy’s cheek as Fenna attempted to give him a chelsea smile as he tried to interrupt. 2008 Charles organised the Angus Stake House to have us whereby we borrowed one of their signature stake knifes which Charles got caught later carving his name into the table with…
This Year is Fennas AGM and he has organised a lovely place for us to enjoy in the fashion we always have. It probably best that we keep our CSG AGM plans on the down low until the weekends over as this could cause all sorts of trouble if the organised activity holders were aware that we were coming… Look forward to an update from big fen on Monday with the results from the weekends activities and learn what restaurant has lost an item of cutlery.
i’m interested to see what happens to Fontera with the baby formula scandal, last time something like this happened they pinned to on some bloke and he got the AK47 number.
Watch this space.
I think you need some web cams for your new house as well, we could have a live feed then we would get some hits on the blogging page.
At this point in time there is not a lot that i could conjure up from my own wordbank to make this entry very interesting, I think in the interest of quality v quantity I shall leave it at that.
Great work with the comment Hugh, now looking forward to your first blog post! I am sure it is going to be a boomer! You other fellas, I am a bit disappointed, you should have written something by now… If you don’t write something soon guys I am going to write defamatory statements about you on our blog for the world to see. So when someone googles, for example, Glen Stuart – they will read that Glen Stuart is an organic pig farmer from Nantucket who lives with his mum. Try googling your name in the next few days and watch this shit come up! That will teach ya.
As you can see this site is a bit of a work in progress. The only pictures I have of us is from our first AGM which if you remember turned out to be a bit of a rough event. I think that we should use this site to comment on shares, companies, business ideas, etc, all professional and nothing naughty so that this site and our group builds up a good reputation and as our shares grow our influence will to. I will email you cats the login details where by you can all write a ‘fun’ post to practice before I clear the slate so that we can start writing seriously. I am sure you guys will figure out how to use this online blogging software called Wordpress, if not get in touch with me.
