Four weeks into 2006 and it feels like it is half over already. Here’s a few things I saw, read, did, lately:Controversial I’m sure, but saw Memoirs of a Geisha. I haven’t read the book so can’t comment on the movie adaption’s apparent shortcomings, but I liked it. Brilliant cinematography (though apparently some consider that a shortcoming too – sheesh…).Read the latest ... Read full entry

I think I spent too much time working this week:Saw Mrs. Henderson Presents at the Ritz. Humourous, touching and also sad.Read an article I printed out last October about Saigon, Vietnam (apparently very few South Vietnamese refer to it as Ho Chi Minh City) written by Graham Reilly. Almost takes you right there…See? Not enough play. And ... Read full entry

Another crazy day. Never seems to be enough time to do everything. To do anything. Racing from point A to point B. Getting stuck in between. Enduring this city’s incessant humidity. Heat one day. Humidity the next. Then rain. Night falls. Another day gone. Incomplete plans and unfulfilled ambitions, hopes, and plans. Another day dawns. One small mercy. Run into ... Read full entry

It’s my prediction disassociated will be a coffee blog in less than five years.That’s because by then every second shop on Randwick’s Belmore Road will be a café, or coffee shop. Not that I’m not complaining. disassociated becoming a coffee blog would be a case of art imitating life, would it not? ;)For the ... Read full entry

It’s just after midnight in Sydney. I think it’s safe to come out now. Earlier today (er, yesterday) temperatures hit 44° celsius. The last time I was in place that hot was Aswan in Egypt.44°C. That must be an all time record for Sydney.I’m pleased to report last night’s festivities were indeed festive. Seems quite a ... Read full entry

A distant highway, on a long distant New Year’s Eve. The countdown to midnight was well underway. I had no hope of being where I wanted to by then though. How I get myself into these situations, I have no idea.I pressed on nevertheless. The road was completely deserted. And why not, who wanted to be out driving around at the witching hour on NYE? The car radio, pumping out ... Read full entry
