The St Eutychus Coffee Roastery is open for business.
Are you tired of falling asleep in lectures or sermons?
Are you tired of paying more than $30 for a kilo of coffee beans?
Do you want freshly roasted coffee for a fraction of the price you’d pay at your boutique roastery?
Order your coffee here. I’ll mail it anywhere in Australia (at your cost).
I’m working on a presentation on Calvin and Servetus for a mini Calvin Conference we’re having this weekend. These are the articles I’ve found – starting with a timeline.
Muse has a new album coming out in September – it excites me that the track listing includes three tracks called “symphony”…
I’ll finish tonight’s blogging extravaganza with this little piece of font humour. From here.
Have you noticed that all the really awesome web success stories feature stupid names, stupid names that often mix a pronoun with a noun. Some names are stupider than others – YouTube kind of makes sense, Vimeo is just odd. They’ve just replaced a letter.
Anyway, it’s obvious that to succeed in the Internet Age you need to have a stupid name – which is where Wordoid comes into play. It does all the hard work for you – even giving you words that are available as domains…
Radiohead’s Thom Yorke is an interesting looking guy who makes interesting sounding music. Those who are unaware of Radiohead should do themselves a favour and become aware – those who are aware – how cool is this “Paranoid Android” inspired Thom Yorke head…
If your business name evokes thoughts of the holocaust – change it.

This my friends is a McDonalds meal. But not an ordinary McDonalds meal. If you’ve ever marvelled at the difference between the picturesque presentation of a burger on the menu and the burger in hand then this site takes things to a new level.
If I hadn’t sworn off fast food for a year I would try this. It’s a post from this is why you’re fat.
Here are the instructions for converting a Big Mac into what is known as a McSteak.
Ingredients:
- 1 McDonald’s Big Mac Extra Value Meal (#1) with a large fries and large Coca-Cola
First deconstruct the Big mac into its parts: (sing along now) two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese,pickles, onions, and a sesame seed bun… plus the french fries, ice, and Coca-Cola. Dice the cheese, cube the middle and bottom buns, and extract the sesame seeds from the top bun. Take the french fries and some pieces of bun and purée them in a food processor with water (melted ice), then top it off with the diced cheese. Rinse the onions and lettuce in a colander and garnish it with “croutons” made from cubed bun pieces. Slice the beef patties, and then garnished it with sesame seeds and top it off with slices of pickles. Serve on a white rounded square plate with a dollop of Thousand Island dressing (the special sauce); serve the Coca-Cola in a wine glass.
According to this diagram aliens are listening to Music is Crap by Custard at about 40 Eridani – they’re also watching a whole bunch of rubbish television throughout the galaxy.
Ok, that’s a terrible pun – but with a cookie cutter like this you can make your next Catholic Communion experience authentic – with “body of Christ” biscuits.
You know those people who flog off pieces of toast on eBay because they can see a grainy picture of Jesus in their breakfast – they’ll have no troubles spotting Jesus when given one of these biscuits.
They’d also be great for your next church baking stall fundraiser. Or something. Actually, I’m not sure what you’d want to use them for. They’re kind of odd. But they’re out there – and available for purchase. And you should know that.
If there’s one thing guaranteed to make your infant grow up safe, secure, nightmare free, and well balanced it’s a ninja mobile – where the ninjas are staving off the attacks of nasty pirates. They’re available from Etsy.
Crayons. We all grow up drawing with them – and then most of us graduate to pencils and other less waxy implements. Who knew that you could create such high brow pieces of art with Crayolas. Here they are masquerading as pixels…
Check out this optical illusion, it’s amazing.
Elephants used to be big in Thailand. Figuratively not literally. They’re still physically imposing – but Thailand has apparently gone crazy over pandas. And the elephants are jealous. So they played dress ups.

The old no pain no gain adage gets tested (along with physics and chemistry) in this video where the proponents have gone to far too much effort. At least the guy involved probably won’t be breeding any time soon.
