Another reason I love ozhiphop.com


When someone's whinging, they get sent sent to the "Wambulance" or they get shown a photo like this.

I love ozhiphop.com.

Omega Supreme is the NEW Haiku


Haikus are done. I'm over it. I'm now all about Omega Supreme style short sentences. HERE's an example:

"That asteroid may be new fuel for Megatron. The Constructicons are mining—"
"Constructicons?! Constructicons: enemies. Enemies die!"
"This is a military mission, not a vendetta, Omega."
"Results: same!"
"I want to know what happened between you and the Constructicons."
"Talk: irrelevant. Answer: private."
"I want to know about it."
"Order: received. Will talk."

Haikus: lame. Omega: perfect.

OMEGA.

Good advice from Geoffrey Boycott about Ricky Ponting's recent problems with Indian bowlers Harbhajan Singh and Ishant Sharma

"Does he need to change anything? I don't think so. He should just keep doing what he has done but do it a bit better."

From HERE.


Lol. Also: I love how assymetrical (sp?) his mouth is. He writes a blog for cricinfo being an 'opinionated' guy who 'you either love or hate'.

It's not very controversial. It reminds me of your criticism of all cricket literature: 'was he the best? Yes. Yes, he was.'

Gobots, and why - no matter how lame Transformers are - we will never like them

That's the leader of the goodies, Leader-1 (great name). That's the toy you get.

His arch enemy is Cy-Kill (great name).

Imagine getting those toys. So poseable! So much fun to be had!

It reminds me of those gifts you'd get from 'quirky' family friends who'd shop at, like, cheap/educational toy shops. "The shop assistant said it's just like Lego, but Lega was invented by a Belgian company. It's the same concept [it just doesn't fit with any of the thousands of Lego pieces you already have]." (my text in brackets)

I used the REAL ultimate weapon: my mind!

Galvatron: "I still have my ultimate weapon, Rodimus! Surrender now, or I'll unleash its force upon you all!"
Rodimus Prime: [to Ultra Magnus] "You know, I think I've finally started to wise up. If such a weapon existed, he'd have used it a long time ago!"
Galvatron: "I tell you for the last time, Rodimus. Surrender, or there won't be an Earth left to protect! Surrender! This is your last chance, or—"
Rodimus Prime: "You're bluffing, Galvatron."
Galvatron: "I tell you this is the end!"
Rodimus Prime: "You're right. It is, because I used the real 'ultimate weapon'...my mind!"
Galvatron: "Stay back!"
[Rodimus Prime continues walking towards Galvatron]
Galvatron: "I said stay back!"
[Rodimus Prime continues walking; Galvatron throws the "ultimate weapon" control device on the ground]
Galvatron: "Aarh! There will be another day, Rodimus!"
[Galvatron retreats]
Rodimus Prime: "And we'll be ready."

No way!




























Guess who appears in time-traveling episode of Captain Planet?

One of the many reasons Transformers was hilarious/lame/cheap

Tommy Kennedy^

In Season Five of Generation One Transformers, there were no new episodes. They cut up the movie, and just put in fifteen other episodes to make the season work.

The only new feature is that at the end of each show, Optimus Prime would chat to Tommy Kennedy who was always having a problem with a school assignment (generally about Transformers). Prime would give him the answer and then have to leave for some *lol* reason ("I have to go assist in upgrading Grimlock's brain!" *lol*).

God Transformers was hilariously cheap and lame. But still awesome.

In addition, here's a list of mistakes made in the Transformers Movie (1986):
  • None of the combiner teams, introduced at the end of Season 2, such as Superion, Bruticus, or Menasor, are present in the film. This is because work on the movie began before those characters were even created. Superion or Defensor would have made a more logical match for Devastator than the Dinobots.
  • In the scene where Soundwave ejects the cassette-bots to block Blaster's transmission, Rumble is accidentally colored red, making there appear to be two Frenzys.
  • Starscream injures his own leg when it gets trapped while Autobot City is transfoming. At first damage is shown, but it has completely healed minutes later.
  • Ramjet and Thrust are heavily damaged by Optimus Prime but are among the unharmed inside Astrotrain.
  • Both Skywarp and Bombshell (or a clone of Bombshell) are reformatted by Unicron into Cyclonus but after that initial scene, there is only one Cyclonus for the remainder of the film.
  • Thundercracker and Skywarp are both present at Starscream's coronation ceremony despite already having been reformatted by Unicron in the previous scene.
  • Dirge, Ramjet, and Thrust are clearly shown to have been destroyed by Unicron, yet they appear in Season 3.
  • Though there are three scenes with Snarl present, for the majority of the film, the Dinobots have only four members, Grimlock, Slag, Sludge, and Swoop.
  • The telescope on Lookout Mountain mysteriously changes size.
  • Megatron's line, "Fall, fall!," does not match the animation as if he was saying it more than twice.
  • Sunstreaker is seen both working on Autobot City with Kup and on the ship on which Optimus Prime brought reinforcements.
  • Blaster is shown "pickin' up a signal" from Spike and Bumblebee while the surviving Autobots are rebuilding Autobot City. However, when the Decepticons attack later on, he is nowhere to be seen. He does not appear for the rest of the movie, yet is seen as alive and well during Season 3.
  • The sequence where Unicron transforms from planet mode into robot mode was taken from the original Japanese promotional reel that was designed and animated before work commenced on the film in full. This explains the lack of facial hair on Unicron and the slightly different animation model for Galvatron.

SKULLS, CROSSED BONES, AND BEING MAD STAUNCH

I HAVE COME TO UNDERSTAND (FROM OZHIPHOP.COM) THAT YOU SEEM MORE THREATENING IF YOU ALWAYS TYPE IN CAPS.

ALSO, WHEN YOU ADD A SKULL AND CROSSBONES.
IT SERVES TO REINFORCE WHATEVER POINT YOU'VE JUST MADE. OBSERVE:

I LIKE HAIKUS

Ain't nuthin' but a G(oo) thang!

Let's retire and become tailors.

I can't get that tailor (our new best friend, hero and mentor (Fame who?)) who remembered your name as 'Goo' out of my head. G(oo)enius.

To be a tailor
One requires safety pins
And lovely green ties



Growing up, my hero was Jason Taylor (the guy on the left in that^ photo) and one day I hope to visit Japan (like the new Fame did).

Fuck it, I also pinned pants up at Gowings!

We were born to 'tail'. This is a great idea.

In case you were wondering...




Yes, lunch was stunning.

No, I don't know what DJ Khaled does (it is certainly not DJing).

Yes,
When talking haiku
I find expression stilted
Grammar: worse also

No, I am not (yet) extra large. "Extra! Extro! The ex! Ex-tacy! Mr G! Mr X G! Extreme Games!"

1. “Welcome to Heartbreak”
2. “Heartless” - 3:30
3. “Love Lockdown” - 4:31
4. “Robocop” - 3:53

I just had the best sandwich I've ever had.


















It was the leftovers of the girl I sit next to, so I'm not 100% what it was. As far as I can tell, it had some sort of spiced chicken, crunchy lettuce with dressing (maybe cold slaw?), small tomatoes (not cherry) on thick cut brown bread. And maybe something else. Oh God, I'm thinking of getting another, EVEN THOUGH it's six weeks till the wedding. We need to go get these sometime.

"On November 24, 1985, the six officers were acquitted by an all-white jury"

I never knew about this.

Horrible.

Sometimes (when you have no work to do at your work), the world can seem a fairly gross place.

...

Also, I vote we get back to our Haiku'in roots!

The shirts at our wedding

I'm so psyched about HERRINGBONE.

We're all going to look amazing. We should go in tomorrow. Do want to make it a boring 'shirt' lunch hour? Would that work? If we met at, like, one and did all your measuring.

Also, you HAVE to go to that website and browse through the arty introduction. Your future wife is wearing the white jacket (but we probably won't be able to invite her to wedding. Soz!)

Wedding cakes

Sadly, our wedding cake will neither be as highly engineered, nor as ridiculously homo-erotic a these cake. However, the fact that there will be cake at our wedding is just another a reason to binge on diet pills/caffeinated tea.



I love that lifesaver one^. Can you imagine the conversation, "yeah, my husband and I LOVE lifesavers but ONLY if they're stacked on top of each other. Oddly. We want the stack to be odd."

Also: yum cha today? Anna Burns asked.

Weight loss pills

As I understand it, DIET PILLS are mainly caffeine. The tiny amount of research I've done refutes that, but whatevs, I'm working on the theory that diet pills are caffeine.

With that in mind, I am - until the day of my wedding - going to drink LOTS of tea. It has caffeine and so can be, in effect, my ersatz diet pill. ALSO, there's no boot camp this week (it starts again next week), so the only exercise I'm going to get is jittering away at my desk and grinding my teeth in my sleep.

So, me drinking heaps of tea. Good plan?

I figure you were the guy to ask. Your brother's a doctor, and you're close with Rob (whose mum is an anaesthetist (sp?) (which is like a doctor but with several decades more training)).

100!

I'm a young money millionaire
Tougher than Nigerian hair
My criteria compared to your career this isn't fair
I'm a venereal disease like a menstrual bleed
Through the pencil and leak on the sheet of the tablet
In my mind 'cause I don't write shit, 'cause I ain't got time
'cause my seconds, minutes, hours go to the all mighty dollar
And the all mighty power of that ch, ch, ch, ch chopper
Sister, brother, son, daughter, father mothafuck a coppa
Got the Maserati dancin' on the bridge pussy poppin'
Tell the coppers hahahaha you can't catch 'em, you can't stop 'em
I go by them goon rules if you can't beat 'em then you pop 'em
You can't man 'em then you mop 'em,
You can't stand 'em then you drop 'em,
You pop 'em 'cause we pop 'em like Orville Redenbacher!!
Motherfucker I'm ill

HUSH.


He's one of the more visually engaging Batman villains. And he has no super powers. Just two guns. He used to be a doctor.

Plus - get this (!) - he used to be (!) friends with (........!) Bruce Wayne(!!!). And now he wants to kill him (!).

No way (!!!)!

Band comp

I'm going to enter one, I think. THIS ONE.

The dates could be a little messy with wedding and honeymoon but if it all works, that would be mad.

I'd be in a band comp. Oh, lol.

...

Also: approaching 100; hope I don't just wander in and snatch the 100th post from you... You already have:
i) 35th post;
ii) 50th post; and
iii) A reputation to maintain.

Good day

I'm off to do the Coopers thing now.

Oddly, the noodles at the noodle markets are shithouse.

Who'd've though it possible? Pad thai in a bain-marie for three hours being dry and rubbery? I nearly complained but by that time, the line was huge.

I just hope it rains and we can go home.

It is exactly like hosting a game show.

Just got this promotional FWD. Could it be?

GUNS N ROSES ARE BACK …..

What I feel like eating right now.

CHIPS.

BACON AND EGG ICE CREAM.

Okay, so this is pretty great

(Taken from Fail Blog)

Props to the large portion 'weddings' occupies in my current pie-chart.

Fuck. I hate selling out almost as much as a did when I was fourteen.

Right behind The Living End selling out in 1997 is my disappointment at THIS. I mean: COME ON!

This is from Delia Smith's, a British food legend, (grammar?) website, the 'food news' section (!!!!!!!!):


Comfort eating at its best


On the subject of credit crunch, why not eat your way out of it with the new M&S Gastropub range (cheaper than dinner in your local!). Excellent, hearty dishes that could easily be passed off as home-made include Orkney crab gratin (£6.49), Lancashire hotpot and my own absolute favourite, slow-cooked beef short ribs with roasted mushrooms and baby onions in a rich Dorset ale sauce (£9.99).

...

Lame.

Shit Peach, I found it!

Your favorite website!

I know this is OLD (kthxbai) but someone just reminded me about it


I'm sure we've spoken about it before, but Go Helen Mirren!

Yeah? Yeah.

She's eight years older than my mum.

GO Helen Mirren.

Yeah?

And while we're on the subject of snax


Have I talked Grain Waves with you yet? Honestly, as far as the feeling of being in love can extend to chips, that's how I feel about them. They're like a corn chip mixed with cereal, and I have seen (ate/ savoured/ devoured/ cherished) them everyday since I first discovered them.

I'm back like Toobs




And while I was gone, both Shady and Ye leaked new tracks, and I'm not sure how I feel about either (i.e. I'm not immediately impressed, and am too scared to think about what that could mean).

A A Gill

I never want to write like THIS or THIS.

I love A A Gill. Or, should I say, I like A A Gill - an English restaurant critic whose prose wins over the weak hearted in droves.

In the UK, the laws of defamation are different, so restaurant critics have more latitude to criticise a restaurant. Gill takes advantage of this by always doing, "the fish tasted like HORSE SHIT that a horse had re-eaten and SHAT OUT AGAIN. Then eaten AGAIN then shat out AGAIN!!!!" thing.

It's lazy. And it's arrogant.

I never want to write like that, and sometimes I worry that I do. I think it's an easy trap to fall into for writers who are confident with their style: the trap of overconfidence. Often, one has to consider what barriers one has erected to protect oneself from it. I wonder if I've done enough.

Paragraphs like this are not OK, not matter how inflated the ego or experienced the journalist. I do not support this (especially considering it's in a restaurant review):

"Stephen Fry is nice. He is a lexicon of nice. A trifle of nice. A temple of nice. A multistorey car park of four-door nice, with sunroofs. Fry has taken a vow of niceness never to be anything but nice to anyone or anything. He once said that being a critic was the most awful thing, because you could make people cry. He said he would never criticise and swore to be nice, a particularly denying ordinance for a comedian: so much humour is cruelty. I suspect that for Fry, it is also self-preservation. Every small act of niceness is a deposit in the good-karma bank. As you reap, so shall you sow. If you are prone to internal sadness and gloom and brown studies, and stare over precipices, then the kindness of strangers is an important consideration. "

Lunch, yo

Today lunch (N.B. in China, it's pronounced "runch"; don't embarrass us by asking for lunch. If you do, we may not get very nice noodles (pron: nood-ah))

Why I'm so great:

I did this:to end the match on Saturday. It was a casual little backhand flick. It hit the stumps and ran a dude out who was going for the winning run (!). Everyone flipped. Comfortably the best feeling I've ever had on a cricket field. I was jumped on. I was lifted up. For a moment, I could fly.

Also: just lodged my tax. I hate doing it. But I did do it. Now it's done.

How are you? Goo(d)? Good. I'm:
-Hungry
-Looking forward to getting drunk tonight
-Scared, having just given our landlord notice for when we're moving out (!)
-Not a very good or effective solicitor
-Just back from the jeweller having decided on the design and inscriptions for our wedding rings (!)
-Disappointed Bliss n Eso won the ARIA (I voted for Spit Syndicate)
-Scared about doing a bad job of the mixtape and worried about finding the time to write properly for it
-Tubby
-Big-boned
-Tubbsy
-Generously proportioned
-"Huggable"
-Tubbso
-Still hungry

How I feel about our blog

This was from an FWD.

I enjoyed it at the time.

I think I'm becoming increasingly lame.

I'm turning into my parents.

You like Bill, right? I reckon Mr McMullan's pretty cool, so we should be sweet.

Things that make me hate you (not YOU, googs; just a general 'you')

i) Disliking Billy Joel;

ii) Having dreadlocks (fucking seriously);

iii) Being a dude and using the word 'titties'; and

iv) Me having a stomach ache from SMASHING a Lindt hot chocolate.

Blurgh.

I'm totally here man!























Sorry though, your points about my lame posts were hugely valid. And currently, a ball fight has erupted all around me in the office (because we're all heaps creative) so I'm finding it hard to concentrate.

BUT I'M HERE MAN! Posting away, making a blog.

Check this out - according to Conservapedia, these are some 'modern feminist' attributes:

  • believe that all inequality is the result of men oppressing women
  • oppose chivalry and even feign insult at harmless displays of it
  • detest women who are happy in traditional roles, such as housewife, and especially dislike those who defend such roles
  • prefer that women wear pants rather than dresses, presumably because men do

It's also worth checking out the truth about Obama

Just a little nudge towards 100...

But he probably did!

I feel a little bit sorry for my Granddad

My Grandad, right, had four kids. I can imagine him - a staunch Catholic man - thinking, "well, these four kids will yield a handsome return of somewhere between six and ten grandchildren."

He has three.

He has a lesbian daughter, a daughter who married a (barren) gay man, a daughter who's essentially a raving lunatic under the thumb of her crazy South African husband, and then Bill.

Three grandkids, from four Catholic children.

I reckon he'd get mad paid out at the golf club. Everyone's like, "phew, it's tough even remembering the names of all my grandkids. I've got so many. My sperm's so potent it keeps working into the next generation."

My Grandad'd be like, "totally."

New Kanye

I really like it.

Do you treat this blog like I do?

I think probably not; you're busier.

I now treat it a little bit like ozhiphop.com in that I refresh it about every ten minutes or so to see if you've added a new post or something like. Sometimes you have and it's like Christmas (with less boring fruit cake).

Sometimes not.

Right now I'm reading a legal magazine article about how when you are considering mounting a defamation action you should consider mounting an action of injurious falsehood concurrently or, even, as an alternative.

Corporations with more than ten employees can't sue for defamation (unless they're charities) according to s9 of the Defamation Act, so injurious falsehood could be useful to large corporations. The requirements are fairly strict as noted by Kirby J in Palmer Bruyn & Parker v Parsons [2001] 208 CLR 288 at [425]. I don't think Kirby J's 'seven point test' need necessarily preclude a Corporation from mounting an action, but it does require intention on the part of the publisher; the publication must've been publish with the intention to induce others not to deal with the plaintiff, or be likely to otherwise damage the plaintiff. This would be difficult to prove.

Do you treat this blog like I do?

My first day as a solicitor

I've been at work three hours.

I have received no work to do. I have done no work. I been given nothing to follow up.

Both my bosses (the only people who give me work) are away today.

It's A LOT like being a paralegal.

Why this weekend was the best weekend ever.

On Friday: I got admitted. It was rad. Then had a stunning night at A Tavola and the East Sydney Hotel (or whatever it’s called) for your birthday..

On Saturday: we changed rap forever. Finally.

Thoughts on my mixtape

-It will be called October 11, 2008: The Beer and Tripe Mixtape

-The only guest appearances will be from you and Fame

-The Panic at the Disco track will be the thank you track

-I’ve actually thought of a good way to smash MGMT

-The only braggadocio bit will be on ‘I’m On Fire’ and it will be about me being a great rapper.* It’s about a 45 second track, so hopefully it won’t be tiresome

-Plus playing around with ‘I’m on Fire’ allows me to make NBA Jam jokes.*

-This will be the best mixtape ever

* = still haven’t decided if this is super lame

Yeah...

Is this lame? Or is it just me? Am I lame now?

P.S. Remember Pokemon? Pretty solid game. I never turned Pikachu into Raichu, though.

Forgetting birthdays is what makes me such a good friend.

Your relationship with your lawyer

You better read up if this blog is to continue...

I'm a solicitor on Friday! Getting admitted!

WOOOOO!

I'll use my new powers for good (blog entries).

Guilty lol

Reading Indian cricket blogs you get lots of guilty lols. Nospeaky ingrish, you see. I lol’d hard at this person’s dream AND at him for even having a dream (that he will never accomplish). I lol’d hard.

And felt real bad.

I’m a bad guy.

“I feel cricket still runs in my veins. Here is just another reason why I have to prove this behind. As you can see, just to the left of your view, one of the flambuoyant cricketers of all times. His fall out and a fiesty comeback into the cricketing arena is one of the best in the annals of sports and entertainment. I believe he is a gifted player and his silken touches off his willow and nothing but commendable and awesome. I never saw a left hander hit such huge sixes against left arm spin. Phew, absolutely merciless. Towering to say a word. I always wanted to be in the commentary box and stitch the right strings of epithets to depict his shots. Dada, I miss you...If you ever play the next time, my only wish is to see you with Sachin hitting the ball to all parts of the ground with my words providing the right foil..My dream..will definitely come true some day..Adios Amigo”

I can’t believe he breaks into character during the blog post, “and there you can see, to the left of your view”. Lol.

I’m a bad man.

But his dream will definitely not come true.

Lol.

“The thing I like to do, is to <……….> with you-ooooo”

Saturday night.

What are you up to? Al’s out of town at a vet keg (it’s that same mad party I lube wrested and did iron gut last year but – and GOD, this is nerdy – I got really bad hayfever and sneezed the whole next morning. I was actually like, “do we have to go outside?” I think it’s wise I don’t drag Al down this year. Also: nerdy allergies? Lol)

I have an appointment at seven to go to Fame’s studio, bring the songs I want chopped up and supervise him while he does it. I’d like you to come too, if you’d like. I thought this would be a great opportunity to i) bring in all the songs you reckon could bang (usb/mp3 or 4 is best), ii) meet Fame (I think he’s great. I think you’d get along), and iii) drink beer and eat Chinese food (the studio is in Chinatown).

Anyway, I think it’d be fun. Also – because I’m paying for Fame’s time – we can hop in the booth and record mad freestyles while he’s editing.

Good call?

My name is Peach and I’m here to say/

Okay, this actually just happened [censored for/ just in case of public consumption]

A [censored] - or maybe he's an [censored] (I can't tell the difference) - just asked my [censored] whether I had [censored]. I don't, and overheard, so interjected "[censored]?"

To which this [censored] replied "[censored]?" It was meant as a [censored], and now I'm silently [censored]. How is it my fault that they [censored], or refuse to [censored]?

What your profile picture should be

Egg 'scuse me.

Just thought this jpeg(g) would be eggcellent for your profile picture, (eg)Goo.

Today's entry from Wikipedia's 'List of films considered the worst ever'

Yep.

Today, it's The Lonely Lady - never released on video, never released on DVD. Among it's highlights are:
i) Sexual assault of protagonist by a garden hose;
ii) Husband of sexual assault victim suggesting his wife 'probably enjoyed' her sexual assault;
iii) Sexual assault victim going on to use her 'feminie wiles' after her divorce to plough her way to screen-writing success;
iv) Award ceremony called 'The Awards'; and
v) A restoration of sexual assault victim's dignity when she refuses to accept The Award.

Look and lol.

!!! Intellectual property controversy !!!

There's a Bollywood movie coming out called Hari Puttar: A Comedy of Terrors ("""lol"""").

Firstly Warner were like, "ummm... You know Harry Potter? Cool, court's this way. We'll bring beers (for celebrating (when we win the case))"

Indian court was like, "guys, come aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhn. It's fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine. Forged aboud id."

Then, it turns out the plot is basically Home Alone, so now they are going to sue.

What does it mean

when the 'Reserve Bank' cuts interest rates by one percent? Should I be excited/ scared?

Fame's next beat.

He's making a beat (for himself) from She's Lost Control.

Seriously.

Awesome.

Rappers are funny - Termanology (sic)

I really like this rapper Termanology and he has this new album coming out soon. Should be pretty killer.

Anyway, I love it when interviews that are just the text versions of an audio conversation are printed like a print interview (it happens HERE).

Shit just gets ridiculous. The two final sentences are amazing:

"DJ Booth: So, with the stage name Termanology, what are some of your favorite words, phrases, or sayings?

"Termanology: “Politics as usual,” that’s one of them. You know, “politics” is one of my favorite words – I incorporate it a lot in my music, I got “hood politics” tattooed on my back. I’ll tell you a funny thing we say, me and all my boys: we tell people, “Rub it on your chest.” Like, if you roll up like, “Yo man, look at my car, it’s so fly!” we’re like, “Word! Rub it on your chest.” In other words, “Yo, f*ck you, f*ck off.” Some kinda funny sh*t we do in my crew."


And this is a photo of him (that he actually posed for (and actually put up on his website)):


VERY small lol (but still a lol)


I'm having a boring day (no way!).

A little help - mad beetz

Dude, I was recording at Fame’s the other day and he’s like, ‘these beats are cool, but I think – not to get out of line or anything – you should just bring in pop songs you like or whatever and get me to chop them up into giant bangers. Whatever, but, yeah…’

I’ve been trying to think of songs since. A little help?

It’s such an exciting idea. At the moment ‘Hold the Line’ is a must.

God.

Dan Illic is in the paper!

A man trapped in the Beaconsfield mine disaster in Tasmania says he is "disgusted" a musical comedy has been written about the tragedy.

"Beaconsfield: A Musical in A-Flat Minor" will debut in Melbourne tomorrow night.

Miner Larry Knight was killed in a rockfall at the mine on Anzac Day 2006, while two others, Brant Webb and Todd Russell, were trapped for 14 days.

Mr Russell said the tragedy was not appropriate subject material for a musical comedy.

"(I feel) disgusted, really, in the way they're going about it and what they're going to call it," he told ABC Radio today.

"When they're calling it 'A-flat Minor' it's appalling I think, just a lack of respect for the Knight family.

"It's better off being left alone, people are trying to get along with lives, trying to move forward, and they just keep using this tragedy of ours."

The promotional material for the 50-minute musical describes it as "the feel-good pisstake of the year ... it's scathing, silly and entirely patchy".

Creator Dan Ilic, who travelled to Beaconsfield for research, said the musical focused more on the media circus around the event than the miners themselves.

The musical took the miners' part, he said.

"I was actually absolutely astonished, as many Australians were, about the media coverage of the event, and how quite often insensitively the media was constantly barraging not only the survivors when they came out, but the townspeople during the event itself," Mr Ilic told ABC Radio.

Guess whose birthday....


Yours! So soon!
Quotes from the movie:

"Harley I Caint feel my teeth, I think somebody's been here" Luanne Clatterbuck (Page Hannah) [OK....]
"I only Had half a beer... A beer and a half" Carson McBride (Phoebe Cates) [O..............K..................]
"hey look there having a shag contest... That is so cool" Caroline "Pudge" Carmichael (Annabeth Gish) [I get this one, at least]"
You're (finally) a 'cult' thing of some kind!

While watching a small portion of what must have been a very depressing NRL Grand Final

I began to sort the Manly players into guys that I could realistically be friends with, and guys that, upon finding me in front of him saying hi, would ask those around (without making eye contact with me ever), "Who is this fag saying hi to me?"

I think this guy would then say "Hey man, that's Shag. he's a good guy, leave him alone." And I don't even know his name.

Primus: best transformer ever?

So anyway, there’s a toy for this Transformer. He’s called Primus. He’s, like, Unicron’s brother and – GET THIS – he’s Cybertron.

How cool is that?

There is a toy of him:



"It is actually a triple changer, transforming not only into Cybertron's planet form and Primus' robot form, but also into a large world-ship, a spaceship the size of a planet. Many of its parts can only be moved using the included Omega lock, which must be used to move the upper half of the planet mode out of the way so the lower half can transform. The Omega Lock has 4 slots of the Cyber Planet Keys included with other toys and has a small light that turns on when the Lock is inserted into any of the ports on the figure"

This would be pretty great, I think.

Lube fight


This was at this awesome, amazing Vet party. I drank for fifteen hours. I wrestled (and beat) an opponent in 'lube wrestling' where you wrestled in mud and horse penis lubricant

I also came second in 'Iron Gut' where you have to eat lots of disgusting things and sprint between each 'disgusting thing' station. I was leading up to very end until we had to eat a handful of raw flour mixed with mayo.

I'm bored.

And I am so surplus to requirements at this firm that I could just burst into tears/flames.
