ABOUT THIS RESEARCHER

Created: 23rd May 2002 
The Best Imitation of Myself - Under Construction

A Brief Introduction1

I'm a young bloke. I have a daughter called Myá, a son called Jack and a missus called Debbie. I live in the south-east of England, UK, Europe, Northern Hemisphere of a small blue green planet at a distance of roughly 92 million miles away from an small unregarded yellow sun in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy.

Goo

Goo is good. Goo is blue.

I am a member of the
Classic Goo Fan Club

The GuideDog Project

Go to GuideDog to see the greatest feat of software engineering. An automated system for taking all the pain out of article writing. It trawls through your IE favourites looking for interesting stuff and posts it to H2G2 in article form with your name on it! You get all the glory and none of the pain. It's written in viral worm form so you don't even have to worry about installing it - it's all automatic! Look out if your favourites include some *ahem* adult themes.

SETI

I am a SETI@HOME user you can find out about SETI@HOME here. H2G2 has it's own group here.
You can view my progress here. If I had come up with anything I'm sure you would have heard about it by now :)

42isms

To find out more about this have a look at this.
My researcher number is 195006 - ((1 + 9) x 5) - 0! - 0! - 6 = 42 Woohoo!

Keeper Of...

I am now the "Keeper of Limed Oak Desks with Leatherette Inlay". To find out more about H2G2Keepers, and maybe become one yourself, have a looksee at Keepers which is maintained by Archangel Galaxy Babe


1 Not, "Here are my underpants", that would be "A Briefs Introduction" - you see the subtle difference there.

Yes it really is me!
Dec 6, 2004

I will really try to keep in touch this time. I miss you all and like a kerazy (yup, that's kerazy with a 'k' and an extra 'e') fool have failed on my half of the friendship bargain.

If you'll have me back I'd happily get stuck into AskHootoo and spam my little heart out.

On the current news front; I dislocated my little finger playing rugby last week. It came out at 90 degrees in an angle it should not have been. I popped it back to about 45degrees, saw the club physio who got it back to about 10 degrees then drove myself to casualty (like a grown up responsible adult suffering from shock shouldn't). An x-ray (which I have a copy of and am hoping to get it scanned in pretty soon), gas and air, lots of tugging, a ring block (local anaesthetic to the joint below the dislocation) even harder tugging by the big jarpie doctor, then a gentle tug, twist and wiggle by the little Chinese doctor, later and it was back in place. I've got it strapped up for three weeks while the soft tissues heal.

I'm nearly three months into my new job as a project manager for a large CCTV installation firm and having great fun at it too smiley

Look forward to hearing from those that still subscribe smiley

If this were a soap opera...
May 20, 2004

People would say nothing more about my extended leave of absence and it would be carefully shoe-horned into the flimsy plot lines.

But it's not.

Hello to all that I've missed. I have no particular reason for not posting for 6 months except that I'm a lazy forgetful bugger at the best of times. I've been spending lots of time working, with the family and playing a MMO - Star Wars Galaxies.

Kids are great, Myá is 19months, very tall, a terror and you can't shut her up. Jack is now 8 months, is mobile and loves to laugh. The missus is fine and so am I.

Meh, I can't remember smilies and can't be bothered to preview so let's hope this works biggrin

This morning...
Dec 4, 2003

...I fell down the stairs.

I've never been so scared in my life - I was carrying Myá at the time. I don't know what happened, I just slipped off the second step from the top and rolled down. Quite how I did it I don't know, but thank god I left Myá at the top of the stairs and I ended up in a crumpled heap at the bottom.

Myá is fine, very, very shaken and a bruised foot (while I was putting her shoes on her this morning she was going "ooh, ooh" but it was funny to her - weird kid). I'm fine, having lost the skin off: the top of two toes, one of my knees and one of my elbows and having a shooting pain in my knee if I walk on my right leg too hard.

I'd rather not go through that again.

Liam.

A brief update
Nov 6, 2003

Myá, Jack and Debbie are doing great. I'm absolutely shattered at the moment, but thank god all of them are well.

Jack has put on a few ounces, the chubby pie eater, and is progressing fine.

Myá has stood up and taken a few steps unaided, usually sitting down to applaud herself, she'll walk from the kitchen to the front room if she's holding hands. She has also had her first haircut, just after learning to take her hair out of her mouth when you tell her to. Her language is improving, leaving only esperanto to master.

Debbie has stood up and taken a few steps unaided. Actually she's moving around under her own steam very well for someone who had their stomach cut open. She can do everything but lift and twist now.

I'll have more photos soon and I promise to reduce the bloated pictures that I put on my site in a hurry.

Liam.

It's a BOY!
Oct 22, 2003

9:46am, 22/10/03, 8lbs6oz, Jack Peter Graves, c-section, black hair, blue-ish eyes (that should be about it for the usual questions).

He's fine, the mother is fine, mini-monster is fine, I'm fine.

It's rushed, the pictures are big, but it's here:
