I first turned rainbow, close my eyes watch my brain glow.

Update: Back at UNSW, just got my PhD reviewers reports.
Good news everyone!
2 recommended immediate award of PhD degree
1 recommended award after minor alterations (typos, clarifications), approved by the head of school.

Some quotes: "an extremely good thesis... seems to me likely to have a major impact on guidance and robot navigation research areas... The thesis is very well written with a lucid and engaging style"

"very well written and I must say I quite enjoyed reading it... the results in this thesis are quite significant and they would probably generate a lot of new original research... I would encourage strongly Mr. Manchester to consider publishing this work as a book"

On the other hand, one said "the language is picturesque. However, the colloquial style of the presentation is sometimes annoying"... well, that's just, like, your opinion... man.

'the language is picturesque'

'this picture is grammatically sound'

The point of this post? Um, ‘well done’ perhaps. Yep, that'll do.

Thankyee B-Roq!
So how are things in New Sodom?
Your blog has many amusing videos, but precious little Rocking of B.

Last I heard you were issuing ultimatums to the public sector. Ultimatums they would be foolhardy to ignore, as I recall.

It sounds like you're ready for the next step of writing something annoyingly lucid...

I just wanna know how colloquial did you go? Hmmm?

And - well done.


And and - where the fuck are all of the island pics!? This constant edge of seat sitting is making my legs turn numb.

I kept the hip-hop lingo to a minimum.

But my minimum is still quite high. Y'all.
