Last week was a pretty busy one. One of the highlights was the demonstration our taekwondo club put on for new students, with punching, kicking, shouting, breaking wooden boards and roof tiles – fun for the whole family. One of the lowlights was realising afterwards that my foot was horribly swollen, red and rather painful. The doctor thought it was broken, but the subsequent xray thankfully proved otherwise. Thanks to the mashed up soft tissue and ligaments though, I’ll be limping around for a few days yet. *sigh*

A perfectly intact bone structure.

It’s been a while since I’ve done much on here, a bit of a shame really. My portfolio’s rather out of date and I’m quite unimpressed with everything here, so when I get the next chance, I think I’ll tear it all up and put it back together again. I need to somehow make it easier to post, since I’ve had things to mention but haven’t had the time/motivation to do it. Most of the time I’ve touched this site, it’s been to clear up idiotic comment and trackback spam, and I’ve finally put in a few countermeasures which might hopefully slow things for a while.

While I was browsing through my web statistics to try and fight referrer spam, I noticed a whole heap of search engine referrals. It looks like a 3D model of mine comes up on the second page for an images.google.com search on the quite generic word “body“. Even quirkier is that a search for “cut” turns up two Blender images side by side on the first page of results – one by Jakub ‘jimmac’ Steiner, who I met at the 2004 Blender Conference and a quicky speed modelling session by me. Funny :).
