The Moxy - Itunes Purchase

Hi All,

I have been awaiting this EP release by a band titled The Moxy.
I first heard them on a BAM movie, BAM: Where the %$^# is Santa?. They have a great sound, and show a lot of promise for a young band. The Moxy has a female lead singer and gives some great vocals to every single track on the album, especially my favourite, Step Down.

Definitely check them out and if you like their sound, I suggest purchasing the 6 song EP from Itunes.

Check them out on myspace: http://www.myspace.com/themoxysound

On another note, Thursday are releasing their much anticipated album, Common Existance, on the 17th of February.
The new album brings the band to a new level and has a couple of guest vocals, one being from the likes of Tim McIlrath from Rise Against. Have a listen to "Resuscitation of a Dead Man" on their myspace at: http://www.myspace.com/thursday
Resuscitation of a Dead Man is also available for purchase from iTunes as a single. Great song if you like your Thursday, you will truly love this song.

Thats all from me for today, more to come in the coming days...

Yours in blog,

Cyanide and Happiness

Hi All,

I havent been doing as much blogging as I would like, has been very busy at work and at home.

I thought I would do a little post on a site a visit daily, its a great website if you want a little bit of a humorous hiccup, or laugh as some of the sane, normal people, would say. The site is called Explosm (http://www.explosm.net/). They have a daily comic that is rather hilarious depending on your sense of humor, named, Cyanide and Happiness. I suggest you check it out: http://www.explosm.net/comics/new/

Here is the comic from the 30th of January 2009.

qabonline.com

Well this is a little blog about a website I created and currently do administration of to some extend. The website, www.qabonline.com , created for the Queensland Association of Bodyboarding is a website for all the Queensland affiliated clubs and for Queensland Assocation of Bodyboarding, or QAB, itself.

On the site there will be postings of photos, news, competition results, upcoming competitions, competitions just for members, and boy do the members get benefits, exlcusive access to the online competitions, their own profile, newsletters and much more.

The website is updated by various members of the Gold Coast Bodyboard Club (GCBC), the Sunshine Coast Bodyboard Club (SCBC) and Headlanders Bodyboard Club (HBC) as well as myself and a few special contributors to the site inlcuding camera man Trevor Ross of surfphotos.com.au.

Go ahead and check out the site, its still early days but expect it to be the center of bodyboarding in Queensland for 2009 and into the future.

Dbah Surf Session

Well there was some semi high hopes for waves this morning, Sunday the 18th of January at Dbah. But alas the waves did not quite co-operate. But it was still some fun, 2 - 3ft peaks coming in now and then.

I met up with the infamous Trevor Ross along with Marty, Timmy Roy and Nat.

We got some fun waves early, I only really got two good waves and then called it a day after a few hours.

Hopefully next weekend will produce some good waves...
