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 : )

My Little Ponies

We were kindly invited to a party last Saturday night, but we weren't
previously aware that our host had such a passion for My Little Pony... This
is a small sample of the full collection. You have to admire this level of
eccentricity.

The Quincy Smelter

Another landmark. This one's earmarked for destruction though, which I think
is a shame but it's a popular choice.

The Portage Bridge

It's a bit of a local landmark. It's the widest and heaviest vertical double
lift bridge in the world. Apparently.

Military graveyard

Across the street from our new place. Except it's more of a gravepark
than graveyard.

Stupid American TVs. Anyone have any advice? (beyond coughing up for a new
Wii).
