A New Blog Begins

Well I had no plan to start a blog and I'm not sure what I will be writing about yet but I'm sure it will be entertaining.... well maybe.

A bit about myself and what I'll probably be covering, My name is Mark and I'm a 35 year old IT professional from Melbourne, Australia. I'm passionate about sports (Aussie rules, cricket, MMA/Boxing and american sports), role playing games and various other table top games and computer games. Not necessarily in the order presented.

I am married, and I have a 16 year old son who is currently training to be a tradesman and generally have a wonderful life.

Why the title of "Closed Pistachio Stymies Fatso"? Well I needed a title for my blog and the comics guy from the simpsons has always fascinated me. But not because he could well be the best caricature written on geek culture. But because, despite his intelligence he gets flumoxed by the simple. I'm kinda like that, and it makes me chuckle to think of it.

I fully intend to talk about my hobbies and interests and I hope that whoever happens by will be entertained, I don't think I'll be updating every day, but you never know what can happen.
