24 hour FedEx Kinkos makes Al a happy boy (and Starbucks next door doesn’t hurt either)
Next hotel: Ditto the last post! Two presidential suites in two nights. Come on!
I love Sheraton. Just walked into our hotel and they’ve given us the Presidential Suite. Would update, but off for a jacuzzi!
Off to Nashville, TN.
Power came back on at 4pm - ahead of schedule. Since then I’ve installed Final Cut Studio 2 - it only took 5 hours!
Power outage at the Jones house. Estimated time of fixedness? Two and a half hours. And yes I know I just made up a word.
Backing up 863,320 items: 33.17 GB of 48.51 GB. Go Time Machine, go!
Setting up my Time Capsule. Full geek report later.
LOST. Could well be the best television series ever written. Loving it.
Abigail has a cold, poor little thing. Snotters running like refugees fleeing their homeland. Suggestions / remedies?
In Northern Quebec so having to brush up on my old school boy French. AJ thinks I am funny - I can get so far and then crash horribly.
The plane I’m on smells like pee.
A Tale of Two Screws
So my new shiny MacBook Air is wonderful. However as I was showing off its wonderful form to some friends the other day, I noticed something odd as I turned the laptop over: one of the screws was missing from the base. That’s right, a tiny little screw (think one of the screws on a pair of glasses) was missing and the hole was just looking at me all bare.
What it says about me that...
At the Apple store. Nicer than being at the hospital (which was yesterday’s outing).
Looking after my wife. Back went this morning. In bed and hasn’t moved since this morning. D’oh!
Loving the multi-touch trackpad.
LOST. My new favourite TV show. Half way through Season 3. Nobody spoil anything for me please.
New Macs
Ooooh happy day. It felt like Christmas for AJ and I today. Our aging PowerBooks have given up the ghost more times than I care to remember so it was time to replace them.
AJ already knew what she wanted so that wasn’t hard (she ended up with a fully loaded 15” MacBook Pro) but for me the decision was a little harder. The MacBook Air intrigued me because my work patterns have...

This is why I love Pixar. So any guesses what I am doing for my birthday?
Up at 5.15am
Ahhh my own bed.
Home Again
Ahhh - home sweet home. While I love traveling there’s nothing like coming home.
We had a great time in Iceland (incase you didn’t guess). So many wonderful testimonies, so many great stories of what God did, so many hungry people and so many wonderful friends.
But now we are home; I’ve just waded through mail, AJ’s out doing groceries and Abigail is fast asleep -...
In the middle of preaching, AJ’s taken over so I’m updating the blog…
About to have lunch and then off to prison!
Oh the fun we have
So I write this from a sofa with a warm duvet wrapped around me watching the snow bluster around on the street outside. Yes ladies and gentlemen, we are in Iceland once again.
We’ve just finished teaching a Father Heart School, where the main focus has been on the love of God. I guess we probably had around 300 very hungry people turn up to a conference centre in the middle of the...
Just got back from an amazing night of ministry. People healed, saved and touched by God. And more gold teeth too! Oh and I’m an uncle again. (Thanks Shannon for spotting the typo!)
About to go preach.
Going for a nap.
