From the article: “The images from VicRoads cameras show the sudden congestion that happens every afternoon on the Monash Freeway, dragging the average speed from 90km/h to 30km/h.”

I have only been driving a car since 2002 and in that time the traffic on the Monash has become noticably worse every year. The government has plans to widen the freeway to 4 lanes in some areas but I don’t think that is the solution. They may instead want to look at expanding the rail network into some of the south east suburbs which don’t have access to trains presently. I’m sure a lot of people would prefer to take the train to work if they had the option.

I have updated my AFL tips page to include my tips for round 5.

Paul Keating on 4WDs in cities.

I strongly reccomend the jam donuts from the cart parked outside Colonial Stadium when footy games are on. Go the Roos.

No news is good news!

Christian: If you’re reading this.. where has your website gone?

RAM, anyone?

Not many updates lately.. Been busy with Jessica.

I’ll be buying a car soon. If you live in Melbourne you might want to stay off the road for a while.

Banner ad industry has really died. I’m considering removing them from ausmusic.org since I’m not making anything from their presence. Site is doing well, but could use a redesign. I’m working on my php skills and hope to have something done by the end of the year.

New hosting provider isn’t working out as well as I had hoped. Might be time to go down the DIY path at last.

Changing web hosting providers this week.

Do not try this at home. The captain is clearly a professional.

Just found a kickass photo of the earth.
