Woollahra Municiple Library

7th Aug 08

I realised I was procrastinating in the library the other day when I borrowed a time management handbook. True story. But at Izrock we love all books. We like sharing too. This combination frequently brings us to libraries. We have often spoken about opening a public library and one day hope to do so.

Cat Protection Society

7th Aug 08
Ambience: Indoor
Difficulty: Won't hurt a bit

Izrock has a new office buddy and business partner, pushing the population up to three. Our new guy is a little unproductive; in fact, he's an average worker. But boy, does he up the office morale.

The Golden Cobra Coffee

6th Aug 08
Venue: Café
Meal: Coffee

Format: Online
Mood: Rad

One half of Izrock is obsessed with skateboarding (maybe a bit more than half). This means I am often 'wasting my time' and being 'too old for that', but getting older and still skateboarding is the best. All the pressure and angst you felt as a kid is gone. What remains, is the joy of learning old and daggy tricks that are easier and more rewarding.

Sedition

5th Aug 08
Product: Art
Anatomy: Face

A bad haircut can leave you in dis-tress. Jokes aside, my favourite barber is Sedition on Victoria Street, Darlinghurst. Barber Michael Joyce is a transgressive fellow, he once told me his motto was 'Against Everything'. This is hard to believe, as he is pretty much the most unselfish, supportive guy going.
