Astronomy Theme

Hey there!

I mentioned that I was working on an astronomy theme for a client sometime back; unfortunately my computer practically died and set me back a week, while I got caught up in other things and never got a chance to show it off.. Now it changed a bit from the original design at the clients request so I can't stand behind the colour scheme 100% but I thought it turned out alright anyway. You can see it below:

Who are you?

Well, it sounds like its from some cliché movie or crappy self help book; but seriously, have you ever stopped and asked yourself who you would be if you stripped off all that social conditioning, all those things your parents have told you to be, and people have said you are.. Hell, while you’re at it, who would you be if you looked different, or you lived in a different time?

Randomness..

Well.. not only has my new blog shown up on google already, and is ranking #1 for the keyword Petes Pad which is a little freak since the domain name has only been registered for a month and NOTHING LINKS TO IT... looks Googles started a new psychic search service, damn; I can't even begin to imagine the marketing potential that would offer, or what kind of scary pornographic 'niche' markets would suddenly get a lot more traffic.

Charles Lindbergh - August 26, 1974

Have you ever just been browsing the internet, reading a book, a magazine or simply watching TV and some character has just grabbed your attention, theres something fascinating about them and you just feel compelled to read more about them, their life and their beliefs?

Well on the 33rd anniversary of his death I thought it might be a good occasion to break a blogging dry spell and talk a bit about one such person who's fascinated me; and this person is Charles Lindbergh.

Ok, the marketer and public relations engineer in me can't help but laugh just a little at the expense of the Church of England.. no, not because their views are outdated and its a little funny to see their pathetic attempts to stay relevant in a modern society but because they've just become the latest division of Sony Entertainments public relations team.

The Most Valuable Website on the Internet.

Welcome Eye-wink.. Ok fine, this isn't it but I'll be talking about it instead...

Gary Halbert, probably the worlds best copywriter and direct marketing genius has put his entire newsletter archive online and as he used to charge $195.00 a year theres some decent value right there, and that's even forgeting the incredible value the aptly named 'prince of print' presents in each of these drops of wisdom.

What I Hate About Fast Food..

Theres nothing worse than waiting in line at some fast food joint, maybe McDonalds, hungry jacks or KFC.. it doesn't really matter which one it is, except usually KFC is the worse one (probably why I try not to eat there that much).. you know, your feeling a little bit guilty about eating that massive amount of crap food, but your hungry / drunk so you just don't care..

Money.. Just follow it..

I'm so sick of hearing the BS that the media keeps spouting at us, seriously it makes me wonder what kind of idiots they think we are, when you hear people on the news, when you see them talk its so damn obvious when things are just propaganda.

Moving forward..

Well, I've chosen not to go to Adelaide for a week unfortunately.. I was so tempted to go, meet up with a bunch of old friends and make a few more in the process; ultimately I have some commitments that need work and I'm already behind schedule. Damnit, I miss you guys :'(
