hats off to them. I have a friend who’s a Goth. Her dedication to “the cause” is admirable.

The Goths in Hot Weather site struck a nerve – as someone who still listens to Joy Division and The Cure despite being in my 30s I’ve noticed that the hotter an area’’s climate, the more goths seem to pop up to form contrast. Hawaii has a surprisingly large goth subculture, and when I was in Chile a few years back I saw a large number of goths dragging themselves around in black clothes that were (somewhat) tailored for the 35 degree heat … (I stuck to boardshorts and a daggy baseball cap myself).

am definitely going to check these out. I have often wondered why there are SO many Goths in Brisbane. it gets so bloody hot there I often think they’d be more comfortable in Melbourne or Tasmania.

I love the Coverspy idea – would be great to have here in Melbourne – would beat surfing through Amazon ‘recommendations’.

Oh dear, I always check the “asian/anglo ratio” before stepping into any of the great restaurants along Victoria St in Richmond. Safety in numbers perhaps?

Pattern recognition is how our brains are wired after millions of years of evolution for survival (ie; “oh, big tiger – hmmm, seen that pattern before – tiger eats human – oh boy, better run!).

I think it’s a gift and a burden as it can make us judge too quickly but provide saftety & security.

My old sales trainer used to say rapport is “maximising sameness, minimising differences”. Celebrating beautiful patterns of humaness to get the sale I guess.

(As much as I dislike the word ‘rapport’ – and the word ‘journey’ – pleeeaaassse!).
