Crickson's electric eye

Originally from the UK, I am currently living with Spiderbaby in the sub-arctic city of Umeå in the north of Sweden.

Currently I am working part-time on a research project at Norrlands universitetssjukhus and being a stay-at-home dad. At least until the snow clears, then I'll be a pushing-a-pram-around-Nydala-lake dad. In addition I am trying to make my photography hobby pay by making some of my images available to buy from instacanv.as or from me directly.

Interesting things I read recently:

If the London Underground network at rush-hour were a city, it would be the fourth-largest in the UK.

"If someone can work out how to hook up a chocolate bar into a cell phone, that'd be pretty good, because there's about 35 times the energy density in a bar of Cadbury Dairy Milk [than cellphone batteries]". Simon Segars, ARM

I am Pavlovs_dog on PSN and would be happy to link up with PS3-owning mobloggers : )

Too Much Information: The first album I ever bought was the Fraggle Rock soundtrack. Pretty cool, eh? I was only 16 : )

Sombre music and lots of people visiting the Sept 11th memorial in Providence. Despite the funerial air to the whole thing, a good time was had by all!

But bumbling zombies and vampires can't climb fences it seems.

Fort DUMPling

Fort Wetherill State Park, Jamestown RI (also known as Fort Dumpling, oddly).

Currently in a state of anarchic and colourful disrepair.

New England Lobster Bake, CT

The chef explained how the native Americans taught the settlers how to cook the lobsters (poor things) on a bed of seaweed with very hot rocks. Alas the puritans would not enjoy their lobster with wine. Fools.

Wine tasting

Awful wine, great company. Virtually all my friends in the US are women, strangely.
