Actually this is just an excuse to post an image or so to test if I have fixed the image posting.

Java Gaming

After listening to The Java Posse podcast, I heard about a few Java games written that start to show off the performance of java in a game development.  I'm sure there are heaps more available, but so far I have found and tried:

And have on my list to try

Feel free to post a comment here on more games..  If I find may more or have any review I'll keep you updated.

Return of Football

The season opener for the Pies in 2006 was against Adelaide at Telstra Dome on Monday night.  I was lucky enough to score one of the uber Medallion Club tickets from Scott and as usual the seats were brilliant.

 And as usual the seats were great, even got to watch some of the Australia V South Africa test...

The Pies played well pushing the crows well, but just didn't have the legs to keep up with them in the long run and went down in a hard fort battle.

Matt and Kylie are Parents

Yesterday morning (31st March) Matt and Kylie became parents.  Alanah Grace was born at 10:35 Friday morning, both mother and daughter are doing well, the dad's hand is a bit sore though...

Rach and I went down to Weribee hospital today to meet the new Collins, and she is tiny..  There were a troop of us there with Dave and Nicola along with the Purcells deciding today was a good time to visit.

Now that makes me feel old..

Congrats new mum and dad.
