The Inane Asylum: Bubye winter.
http://aphertiser.blogspot.com/2006/10/bubye-winter.html
Wednesday, October 04, 2006. You know it’s that time of year again. The mercury climbs, and the lifestyle changes ever so slightly. I used to hate the warmer months, truth be told. But it changed last year. I used to lament warm weather, as I was hardly comfortable in shorts. But now evenings are spent walking through parks, and running like an idiot through the sprinklers - with my shirt and tie from work still on. Thank you, and goodnight. Posted by Andy at 3:44 PM. I love winter and i do not mind spri...

Baby Lauren: April 2005
http://babylaurenmiller.blogspot.com/2005_04_01_archive.html
Wife to husband, Rancito, of 4 years. Mother of one-year old daughter, Lauren, two mini wiener dogs that I refer to as Farkota, and one big mutt named Champ. This is my way of telling Lauren I have loved her since the day I saw her tiny bean body on the ultrasound screen. Friday, April 29, 2005. Stand Up and Shout! Oh yes, the children were chanting Lauren's name. I peeked around the corner and there she was, holding on to the step between the baby room and the kitchen. She had her butt sticking ...My bl...

The Inane Asylum: Obviously...
http://aphertiser.blogspot.com/2006/10/obviously.html
Monday, October 23, 2006. I have an honest face. Honest face = schmuck. So everyone, please perform the following acts:. Walk up to me in the street and ask for money. I obviously can afford it, and I’m obviously far too nice to turn you down. Order me around. I’m obviously too self conscious to make my own decisions, and I don’t have the assertive personality to stand up for myself. Disagree with me, and tell me why I’m too sensitive to your efforts to undermine my position and basically screw me over.

The Inane Asylum: The human atrium
http://aphertiser.blogspot.com/2006/10/human-atrium.html
Thursday, October 19, 2006. I work in a building in the Adelaide CBD, about nine storeys up. I have a nice view to the west, which shows a vast panorama of the glass building next door. There are days where I feel a little trapped. This feeling isn’t helped by the Venetian blinds which create a gaol-bar-like effect. About half an hour ago, this feeling came to a head, almost to the point where I cracked and started flinging crap around, like a caged animal. I have suddenly developed an odd hatred of zoos.

The Inane Asylum: April 2005
http://aphertiser.blogspot.com/2005_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 30, 2005. I am seeing a nifty new trend in the world of blogs. It is a new twist that I never thought possible from simply spewing your thoughts out to the faceless and nameless people out there. The community out there simply does not read a blog and comment on it just so they can draw readership to their blog, and then bask in the glory of commentopia. People are being touched by the simple words of others, and then are inspired to run their own take of the entry. Personally, I have bee...

The Inane Asylum: Aries: Will travel. Stay clear of rats
http://aphertiser.blogspot.com/2006/11/aries-will-travel-stay-clear-of-rats.html
Tuesday, November 21, 2006. Aries: Will travel. Stay clear of rats. It seems that whenever I find I’m getting my shit together, something new always crops up and changes all the rules. I think I’m about to get a new job. How do I know this? My PC has been targeted for an upgrade. It’s happened in the last, ooh, four jobs, I reckon. So, my boss approaches me just the other day and says, Your PC is pretty crap. Why don’t you have a flat screen? I reply with a I make do with what you give me. It happens to ...

The Inane Asylum: Penguin Force, Go!
http://aphertiser.blogspot.com/2006/10/penguin-force-go.html
Wednesday, October 11, 2006. Penguin Force, Go! Over the years I’ve learned that dealing with a confrontation with an equal and opposite amout of aggression doesn’t cancel the confrontation out. Far from it. In fact, it makes the entire ordeal a fistful-of-fuck worse. He nodded like he understood what I was saying. The night progressed. We were at a black-tie dinner. Thankfully not too much booze was drank I had soft drink the whole night. Havin’ a good night, fellas? He slurred at us. I need to get home.

The Inane Asylum: January 2005
http://aphertiser.blogspot.com/2005_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 31, 2005. I’m not writing this to be judgemental, or to deride the lovely ladies because of their choice of man, mainly because it’s their choice and there are probably redeeming traits that come out when the doors are closed, ie good sense of humour, subservient, or gives a great foot massage. I don’t know, and I don’t care. Good luck to them. Perhaps it’s the initial impression that is given? But is it a level of arrogance that possesses a man to talk to such women? From a personal stan...

The Inane Asylum: Et tu, U2?
http://aphertiser.blogspot.com/2006/11/et-tu-u2.html
Friday, November 17, 2006. Et tu, U2? Adelaide was host to the U2 juggernaut last night. You hear that? The juggernaut, I tells ya! Juggernaut. Any town worthy of a juggernaut visit has to be world class right? Any excuse for me to use the word juggernaut. Juggernaut. Needless to say, this sleepy little town squealed with the gusto of a gushing groupie. Bono and co were humble enough to mingle with fans prior to the show, to which Bono was unfortunately assaulted by our local media. Bono: I feel great.

The Inane Asylum: Memorandum
http://aphertiser.blogspot.com/2006/11/memorandum.html
Monday, November 06, 2006. Memo to staff in the boss’ office. I hate to single out a couple people in the office, however in this case I do feel I need to highlight specific people in order to put my point across. To the personal assistants to the boss, I think you should be aware of a couple little facts that might come as a surprise to you. 1 The PA to the boss is not tantamount to actually being the boss. 2 No one respects you for the sole reason that you are the PA to the boss. So to continue to expe...
