The album also contains CAT scans of the foetus. I don’t know about you, but there is something supremely creepy about photos of an unborn baby being uploaded to the internet for the world to see. Luckily they’re not tagged (yet)!
I think it’s pretty safe to say that the general populace is getting just a little too comfortable with online social networking.

The town planner in charge of naming the streets in one of my hometown’s new developments has a pretty wry sense of humour.

I spent a couple of days this week exploring Great Keppel Island, off the coast of Yeppoon in central Queensland for a feature article I am working on.
The proposed development of the island by Tower Holdings has been the topic of much conversation, misinformation and many conspiracy theories over the past few months, but I didn’t have the time or health to investigate while I was working in Rocky.
It was an amazing experience. I’m incredibly grateful to Petros Khalesirad for his research, resources, passion and quad bike skills and the residents of GKI for being generous with their time, food, quad bikes and accommodation.
Upon our return to Rockhampton, Petros and I did an interview on 4RO 990AM about the trip. The article and accompanying video and pictures should be up and ready to go within a month, but I thought I’d share a few snaps as a bit of a teaser for anyone interested.
Note: In central Queensland, the C.U.B. is referred to by its other name, the D.F.M. (dumb fucking miner).

On The Road Again
I’ve spent more time driving in the last week than I have in the three months prior. Aside from driving eight hours to Rocky last Friday, I’ve done at least another 11 hours worth of driving from Rocky to the beach over the past four days. This blog post was recorded during the 3 hour drive between Rockhampton and Emerald yesterday, and features a tiny bit of rambling and a sly grogging bust.
