Tsimba


A few people I work with and others I know have asked me about our cat's name - Tsimba. We inherited him from a friend going overseas to teach and live. He had the same name but spelt Simba. We added to T to make it sound and look exotic.

So here is a photo of him doing what cats do best - RESTING. At least he is not running around the place or annoying us, or just staring at us. So he can sleep as long as he likes.

Great Graffito

I saw this piece of graffito earlier today and was undecided if I should post it or not. But I think the content is worth it.

"I thought I was a slut, then I realised I was acting like a man!"

House Views



A selection of three of my favourite photos of the Sydney Opera House. I am always fascinated how aspects of the House change from day to day, from hour to hour, season to season, but especially from perspective to perspective. Almost like a living thing.

I think that this is still one of the most beautiful building of the modern world, and the fact that it is in Sydney just adds to the significance of the builder and its dreamer/architect Jorn Utzon.

Week 2 Web 2.0


I love this dog he reminds me of how I should approach learning - just go for it, but believe me it is only another weeks worth of learning.


I know I should have patience, but please finding the time is the first obstacle -- but again I digress.


So far so good. Lets see what happens.

Welcome.

I know for a Librarian I should be able to have something a bit more original or witty, but it's a start. Lets see how the journay goes, and not only what I learn from the journey but what the journey learns from me.

Two very smart men once uttered amazing word: "I have been to the mountain top... and I have looked over." (Martin Luther King Jr.), "let us think of education as the means of developing our greatest abilities, because in each of us there is a private hope and dream..." (JFK). So as I start this journey I am ready not only to look over the top of the mountain but to embrace the learning and changes I know will be there!!!
