Nothing Quite Worth a Full Post

- Blogger is being a bit painful at the moment, so apologies for the slow posting.

- But many of you will see the return of the "recent comments" feature over there on the right. Let's see how long that hack works. But in the past, it has certainly made people more aware of the comments added to various posts.

[edit]- Its sad that the US has decided against sending a team to the World u23 Championships. Yes, the u23's have been pulled together quickly, but I'm sure many will see the US not attending as a great embuggerance and disappointment. It IS a challenge for a nation as large as the US to pull together a team in the timeframe, but I don't think anyone would view it as an insurmountable one. It just seems to come across as "if we can't put a full effort in, we won't be coming half-arsed". And more annoying, when Australia goes and wins Gold ;), the clowns on rec.sport.disc will be rambling on about asterisks (as they did following WUCC2006), without realising that being the best in the world isn't just about on field performances, but all the fundraising and organisational effort and commitment that it takes to get there too. This one's still going folks.[/edit]

- We hope everyone heard Dr Chris Burwell (aka Buzz), who seems to be ABC radio's latest celebrity scientist, at least going on his long segment last Wednesday (which alas has not been posted on the web).

- JdR's old team in London, the Flaming Galahs, recently won a big final, and some dude got keen and posted the highlights on Youtube. Keep an eye out for Dan Berry (shortish rednut with silly grin) - JdR taught him everything he knew.

- We haven't yet mentioned the delightfully named Delirium team that will be representing Queensland, and indeed, the free world, at Mixed Nats in Hobart in October. Follow the link to love the Handfish, and slap the backs of those skilled enough to be selected:

Suze, Maylin, Megs, Notty, Laura, Jen C, Steph, Stu, Dusty, Jimmy, Andy L, Dan Blacklock, Hugh of Townsville, Jo-el VW (Canadian), George S and big bad Stef 'knee permitting' Rappazzo

- And because he's great and we don't post as many pictures as we should, here is Dan with a small child.
