The camera and card reader don’t cope well when a single photo is corrupted… deleted it and the problem went away. 216 - Photos shot 128 - Photos deleted straight away 88 - Photos remaining, of which… 45 - Photos marked for upload I love shooting digital.

From SFO

I’m in San Francisco! I think I’ll start a Web 2.0 flipmeat company and make ten million dollars before they call my flight. Wish me luck. Update: If this page is to be believed, Telstra postpaid customers get unlimited global roaming access to T-Mobile’s hotspots… and all it costs is a dollar or so per session for an international SMS. Bargain of the century! (Especially when you consider that T-Mobile’s rates are nearly as usurious as Telstra’s.

Josh Marinates Everything

I forget where I found this recipe, but it’s a pretty nifty way to spice up a stir-fry. Josh’s Easy Marinated Beef Ingredients: Beef (two porterhouse steaks makes enough stiry-fry for 3-4 people) 2 cloves of garlic 1 small red chilli ginger (about as much ginger as garlic) 1 tablespoon soy sauce 2 teaspoons oil (peanut oil or sesame oil are best - canola oil also works) Full recipe after the jump.

It’ll never catch on.
