RIP Billy Hazell 1996 - 2006

Friend
Playmate
Willing listener (even though deaf from birth)
Protector
Blue cattle dog.

Billy died after a typically male illness.
Prostate cancer.... Well atleast thats what we think it was in the end.

So mate,
to the best dog a bloke has ever had
I hope the pain is gone now
I hope youve met up with Zac and Noah and are playing with a self throwing Kong toy.
I hope there are plenty of cats to chase (theyre obviously in cat hell) and postmen to yell at.
Go walkies whenever you want my friend.
I hope you can hear now.


I miss you

Here we are in our new home!!!

So much for saving up a while before moving into another house!

We found a place in Bligh Park (near Windsor) where several of my friends either have lived or do now. So I am very familiar with the area.
We have air conditioning!!!!! YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
We have a fully enclosed carport (no it ISNT a garage but close)with no less than 3 garden sheds facing into it. Its a mini workshop!
One shed has power points, lights, air extractor AND workbench. pig in shit, me.
We have 3 bedrooms, study, 2 toilets, family/sunroom, nice ,modern kitchen and big enough dining room plus a good sized lounge. Outside we get a nice covered patio area plus a gazebo! theres no neighbours to the rear (following 6 years of tradition that - we have never had rear neighbours... just lucky i guess!!!!!), the block overlooks Windsor Downs ature reserve which has lots of walking tracks winding through it. We are on town water AND sewer (yeah yeah laugh but mum n dad are on pump out in their 6 year old home which SUCKS with more than 2 people living there).

The carport has 6 fluro lights AND 6 outdoor ppower points. My Peugeot is gonna live there. Itll be nice being able to work on the car(s) without cooking in the sun, without having to run stupid extension leads everywhere n on nice level concrete. I might just get myself a creepycrawler to get under the car!
It also has more powerpoints and phone jacks than any place ive ever seen. I am currently in the kitchen (big woop) but I could as easily be out in the shed, in the bedroom, in the laundry or in the back yard (i AM on the notebook currently)annnnnnnd
being in a nice newish area the telephone exchanges and relatively new phone lines can handle noticeably higher data tranfer speeds - ive never seen more than 42kps from my connexion n today its running at 49.5! The ONLY time Ive seen faster was an old 56K modem I had which was shall we say optimistic? So I'm rather happy. I also got to pick my own telephone number which was tres cool. We are at the end of a LOOONG cul de sac so theres no through traffic. No housing commission riff raff around either unlike where we were b4 in bathurst. AND its only $30 dearer than a place in housing commission hell (aka Sth Windsor) which was fibro, had no sheds, no carport, no A/C, shite kitchen, shite bathroom, only one toilet (big deal but hey ya get used to 2 in a real hurry), was in a scum street with neighbours who looked entirely too much like the local burglary union. This place is a quantom step up from there for not much more cash.

In short Im a well happy little camper today. My best mate (here) lives about 4 minutes away in the other part of the suburb, n I actually live in the suburb I play cricket for now lol. Its all nice n level so we can go bike riding without killing ourselves too. (Im lazy i know it but i figure Im not training for la Tour De France so hills can bite my shiny metal ass to quote my favourite cartoon character - bender from Futurama).

Other news.... hmmmmzzzzz

dog is sick... enlarged prostate ' its not uncommon in elderly dogs'
elderly dogs? ELDERLY DOGS? MY dog? elderly? That fine young blue heeler is ...*counts* only 10..... ten? shit... elderly may be right eh. Poor bugger cant go wee with any comfort :/
He has lost some weight though n looks well tough n fit to go with it. Cats in the area best watch out Billy is coming to town soooooon.

Anyway, pizza at mums' tonight so I gotta jet seeeeeeeyaaaaaaaaaaaaasss

stupid cops, dumb politicians etc

So the cops think it is ok to turn in front of 6 lines of traffic to pursue some outrageous criminal doing 110KPH in a 100 zone. Sounds bloody silly to me.

On the one hand I am happy that fat shit 'alleged' kiddy fiddler Orkopoulous (fmr minister of aboriginal affairs) DIDNT manage to top himself. One the other hand It might be good if he succeeded. Glad he survived so that the criminals can treat him to some of the crud he inflicted on kids over the years. Pity he is gonna waste a PILE of taxpayers' money keeping the creep alive.

Well I failed dismally on Saturday at cricket. Made 3. Was shitting the entire time too. Couldnt move my feet. Couldnt see the ball. felt weird.

going to Bendigo tomorrow.
Hope everyone is ok.

well well well

Is this a fancy typewriter or what?
Oh its a computer...
I remember these.
Ive been wandering about Windsor relearning where everything is etc.
My best mate has recruited me for his cricket team. Played my first game in 8 years last weekend (and this weekend - played over 2 weeks) did ok fielding. Scored 59 with the bat (TOP SCORE me)which was fantastic. We lost by 9 runs which was great given 2 of our batsmen didnt bother showing up. Played with a bat I paid $2 for at a Salvation Army store. Wicked - I didnt want to ruin my good ($35) bat I bought 2nd hand at a market in Melbourne, as it was raining off and on all weekend.

It is a bit tough getting online at the me as I cant tie up the phone here and late at night I have just been too darned tired to log on.

Mums' dog is such a cack. She is a 3 yo blonde labrador. She near turns inside out with excitement when you say the word 'walkies'. What is funny is MY dog gets rather snooty if HE doesnt get to go for a walk too. He has a sore back leg, is rather overweight, and getting on a bit but walk out without HIM n check out the filthy looks he gives. Mums' dog is slowly learning (from me) that treats arent a right but a privilege which she must take nice n delicately or she doesnt get them.also learning to heel on the lead n sit etc. She gets let run wild by the parents unfortunately.

We got rained out of a local swap this weekend. Glad we didnt drive a long way to go to it.

The Hamster At 500KPH

Hammond you GIT
Not only do I have to deal with a gurl gutted by Steve Irwins' passing then YOU go n prove what a twat you are n try vehiclur suicide at 500KPH.
Yes you are her favourite Topgear dude.

Hope you get better soon n get back to smashing caravans into each other.
BTW I reckon your cheap sports coupe comparo was missing a natural selection - the Renault Fuego. Ok not as fast as some of the other cars shown but I bet for the pittance you were paying you could have gotten one in rather good nick. Also the old series Alfetta GTV too was ignored.

God Im tired of public school communists i mean teachers bleating about government money going to private schools. I mean... obviously they think the parents who send their kids to private schools DONT pay taxes - unlike those unemployed etc who send their kids to public schools.... who DONT pay tax. They bleat on about lack of funds like it is a new thing! I remember when I was at school it was ALWAYS short of cash.

as for those 'entertainers' who refused to go to Iraq well we wont be buying your records anymore either - dont support the war support our troops.

God Italy hqas a gay national anthem. Anyone who whines about the Australian one orta listen to some others.

fingers crossed Osama Bin Ladin has died of some particularly noxious disease. I am not getting my hopes up though.

I intend to learn to surf soon.
yeah shut up laughing up the back there.

Been moving.
Many trips to the storage unit...check
many trips to the Salvos shop...check
many trips to dads' garage (4 hour round trip over the mountains)...check.I am now blogging on an old olsd Toshiba notebook which I finally finally hooked up to that thar innernet thingy. So if I make any typos stiff - I dont have my fave microsoft bendy keyboard.
I dislike how my backyard looks like a bomb went off in it whenever we move. No I am not a neat freak (though i suspect my mothers' OCD cleaning compulsion did in fact rub off a little).
Organised the carpet steam cleaning today for next week. Shits me. I used t odo it for a lliving and would likely do a better job with the little hire machines from woolworths than the guy with the truck we have hired. But nooo the real estate agents require a receipt for professional services - like I am not gonna be more motivated to save my bond!!

Thank god we have a wagon now though. Stuff just disappears into it.

Oh yeah
Rockmeister I will not be in Sydney at the end of Sept. We are going to Melbourne for a week as it is the gurls' nieces' 3rd birthday n she is rather taken with me for some reason. So we have to go down there.

Hmmm
I am not catholic. Dont believe. Looking for a sticker reading 'born again pagan'.
But SHIT if i dont wish the Pope would call for a damned crusade. They wanna flippin jihad ok... WE wanna crusade against militant morons who are still living in the 12th century. You dickheads PROVED the fat old german dress wearers' point rather neatly by your on cue, scripted, leqad about like cattle by the nose reactions. youre being played you sons of silly people.

Recent news from afghanistan.
australian soldiers 150
Taliban shitwits 3 (counting 6 wounded as, well,.... you know)
GIVE UP. our blokes are better trained, better equipped and not as stupid as your lot.
as for those wankers groaning about our troops making vids of some harmless horseplay LIGHTEN UP. You go get shot at every day n see ifn you dont get some gallows humour going.

Crikey...
I am still having trouble believe steve irwin is gone.

Friday, September 08, 2006

2 down...

Steve Irwin gone

Peter Brock gone

Who is next?

Can Australia afford to lose two fair dinkum legends in ONE week?

I was truly gobsmacked when I heard about steve Irwin
I think Im a bit sorta shocked that Brocky is gone.

so whats been happening

well finally
the blog god decided to lock me out for some reason.

not that anything outrageously exciting has happened here.

the gurl went to sydney for some balance tests on wednesday. I got to sit around creatively perving on all the cute nurses. I now know where all the cute nurses in NSW get sent (they DONT get sent to Bathurst or Windsor). So that didnt hurt toooo much (4 hours watching delightful young and delicious more senior women wandering about in front of me mmmmmm). See in my bio it SAYS im an old perv.

Looks like we are moving back to sydney. The gurl keeps getting sent there for tests etc. I has taken a while to convince her that just because we made the decision doesnt mean we have to start shifting shit immediately. She always wants to put the cart in front of the damned horse.

I found out how heavy encyclopedias are last week. Bought a whole set of world books for $5. Dont look like theyve ever been opened. Bloody heavy in a box though.

Someone mentioned squash the other day i said 'yeah.... I remember that' Havent played much lately. Just seemed to not get round to it. What it means is the victim is getting cheeky enough to beat me once in a while... cant have that so Im moving to sydney lol.

Looks like we licked the last problem in the peugeot. had a bad earth somewhere which was draining the battery. yay

Boy howdy what fun

Lisa I think you like 2 1/2 men cuz of charlie sheen .... I like it cuz i htink Rose is hot (aside from it being funny).

What a rip
Jules got punted from Skating with the Stars.
The ONLY reason bloody Lara Bingle gets through is cuz of her smile.
The ONLY reason bloody Jake Wall gets through is cuz the chicks all go awwwwwwwww.
SHE doesnt do more than FUCK ALL actual skating in any one routine n neither does he.
And Im dirty cuz I thought JUles' partner Kristina was juuust as cute as a button

AAnd as far as I am concerned Torvill & Dean are still the best pair around. I reckon they could still do well competitively.

The gurl reckons every time I take a 2nd diabetes tablet I start vomiting. I think it is just coincidence. I think theyre working slowly but surely. All my clothes feel a bit looser. I feel better too.

Rocky you dope
the 'you sunk my battleship' was a simpsons reference.
I have NO idea what movie you are refering to.

heh mate I just finished reading Livys' account of the 2nd Punic War... only what? 13 years AFTER I did the course at uni for it. No... I NEVER read any of it when I did the assignments - if you can't cobble together a decent essay 'quoting' livy from modern texts then ya not trying eh? I actually found it rather engrossing! Not REEEEAL sure why scipio was given such a wrap though. Just took up the Augustan Histories. Then Ima revisit that anti- imperial diatribe more commonly known as Procopius' Secret History. no I am NOT gonna try to wade through Thucydides EVER. Never indeed have I read it cover to cover. Never will I. BORINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG.
May try wading through Polybius again though to find out what REALLY happened in the 2nd Punic.

Got grading tonight for squash again. I never really do well at grading for some reason. Hopefully tonight is different as I have not swamped myself with squash lately. Been a bit lazy tell the truth. I think sometimes I go to grading having too much play under my belt. Just a bit jaded. Past the peak sorta.

Mum is quietly hinting here n there that maybe we should move back down to sydney.
I dont really want to - but it would be a touch more convenient in many ways - the gurl could get a psych nurse she actually likes mebbe? Probably better services too. Cheaper fuel, cheaper food, dearer rent... hmmmz.

Whatever should I do?

Monday, August 14, 2006

Lazy lazy boy...

Having trouble working up any interest in anything lately.
Terminal ennui i think.

Don't ya love it when you get a prediction nnnneeeearly right?
I caled 'yasmins getting married' for 3 episodes before tanking. It lasted 4.
I dont think yasmin is gonna get hitched any time soon.

The ford wagon got new tyres (about the only thing I managed to work up any enthusiasm for) on Thursday. 4 (count em 4) brand new michelin XM1 tyres. Ahhhhhh... THATS better. And a wheel alignment eh. NOW it goes where it is pointed. Rides a bit better too. Now to get the new dampers installed (I have them they just aint in the car yet).

We polished both cars on friday too. yeah yeah washed them first. Now I dunno bout anyone else but my peugeot gets washed once every 6 months or so whether it needs it or not. There IS a drought on ya know. I THOUGHT it was silver! It is! Muddy brown just isnt the same . The general clean allowed me to discover that there is a cat wandering about here for which I have coined the phrase 'dead cat meowing' - It is dead it just doesnt know it yet. Actually its probably gonna be a race between meself n the bloke across the courtyard as to who gets the honour of wasting the furry little stinkbag. Yes BOTH our cars have suffered the depredations of a cat using our duco as a scratching post.Ima kill it if i catch it. Wring its sneaky little cat neck.

We in Australia are about to enter that televisual twilight zone known as 'Australian Idol' - this immediately after the nightmare on channel ten also known as Dont bother 6 i mean big brother 6, which was possibly even WORSE (if such thing be possible) than any BB before it. The only part of IDol worth watching is the auditions. There are some sad folks out there. *I* can sing better than most of them and I'm sure if you were to ask rocky he would assure you I CANT SING. Not to save my life. Cant hold a tune. Tone deaf. No rhythm. Scare deaf people my voice.
Didnt mind the 27yo yummy mummy they had in from Newcastle though. Might just have to watch it simply to perv on the hottest chick to grace aussie TV in a long long time (cepting anna choy n toni pearen *sighhhhhhh*).

There was ONE good thing to happen when Yasmin tanked - we got Futurama back AND in a miraculous piece of bare arsed fluke programing it is generally on right after the Simpsons - which is where it belongs. Thank the TV gods for small miracles. A completely SHITE show replaced by a rather funny show. I am bender insert girder... ROFL.

Love that 'How I met your Mother' featuring the edible Alyson Hannigan (Willow from Buffy) and the hottest brunette i think Ive ever seen on TV (innnc. Lauren Graham, Catherine Zeta, Sally Williams *shes on adverts here*, and others I cannot remember). Whats more aside from being a chick fest its actually quite funny and not in the 'what am I chopped liver' sense that made friends and seinfeld such a yawnfest.

My name is earl - not baaaad though Im totally over the intro now. Dunno why they think that blonde chick is so hot when the latino maid is sex walking.

2 and a half men - for me the comedy highlight of the viewing week.

Top Gear - ahhhhhhhhhhh a $300,000 dollar sports car? Yeah I'll burn the cllutch out n 4 wheel drift the arse off it n shhred shit out $1000 tyres all in the name of serious journalism. GOTTA LOVE THIS SHOW. I was especially pleased when they drove a Rolls Royce into a swimming pool. OH YEAH. whats that? Drop this here miniskip onto a Maserati? ok. awesome. dont buy a big expensive shitbox chysler V8 - the good ole holden monaro is half the price n EATS it. yeah baby yeah.

Bout time we had some new episodes of South Park.

Every Tuesday is a giggle when Soddoff Baldric ... I mean Tony Robinson hosts Time Team. Even the gurl is getting interested in ancient Romano Britsh archaeological remains ' oh this is heaps more interesting than i thought it would be!!' this even as my interest wanes. I am almost at the point where i think digging any more shit up is a gross waste of time and money for the most part - at least until the next ice age lowers world sea levels a hundred metres or so so we can find those sites currently under water. On that topic... people really ought to see a map of world sea levels over the last 100,000 years or so b4 bleating on about rising sea levels. Up down up down up down. This isnt a localised recent phenomenon shitwits. Its been happening for 100,000 years ATLEAST. Get over it.

Could Home and Away get any worse and unbelievable? Shit a brick. The writers have a case of terminal constipation i think. Who in their right mind would EVER want to live in a place like that? not me. Hell I am finding Neighbours more believable at the moment. I thought Headland was bad (no come to think truly verily it was indeed a gross piece of crap). Thank you yasmins getting married for tanking cuz NOW we can watch Futurama instead of Home and Away.

The Ronnie Johns Half Hour is back this week thank fuck. There should be a sticker 'may cause gut ruptures from too much laughing'.

SCi; CSI New York; CSI Miami..... original scraping by on the unboring stakes. New York I like Gary Scinese but can take or leave the rest (as IF a highly trained forensic pathologist - thats DOCTOR ie about 12 years at uni would chuck it in to be a shitty scene of crime tech - sorry but i CANNOT imagine that would be anything other than a pay cut of about 50%). Miami... god we take the piss out of the boss guys cadence and delivery of his lines. one word. Wanker.

Love NCIS cuz its juuuuuuust a little goofy.
Jag is back n frankly its kinda boring. Catherine *sigh* Bell looks like shes lost weight n frankly it doesnt look good on her. where went they sexy sexy sexy curves? She was the hottest woman on tvfor a while - I hope she hasnt caught hollywood syndrome.

Heard on the grapevine that Jessica Simpson asked Pamela Anderson how she managed to run so slowly at the start of Baywatch every week. Apparently Pammy patiently explained a little known technique called 'sssssslowwwwwwwwww motttttionn' camerawork. Hell even if its apocraphal its funny as hell.


grrr
ok ive had enough typing for today n the gurl has to go to the doctorb (thats a simpsons joke).

haha you sank my battleship.

Sunday, July 30, 2006

ARGHHHHHHHHHH what a MESS!!!!

We had shit EVERYWHERE yesterday.
Sorting stuff out for swapmeeting, stuff to go to the Salvos, stuff to go in the round file.
Burnt MORE money (sighhhh bins for stuff to put in the trailer).

Emptied the garden shed (stupid tiny shed... dont they KNOW blokes like BIG sheds to put stuff in??) Rearranged stuff. Rang my father to ask him what the weird looking grey thing with wheels, and a big red engine with the label 'briggs and stratton Quantom 50' was. He said 'sounds like a lawn mower' n then I cracked up laughing. See we dont get to use it much ... been here 2 years in October n its come out of the shed ONCE. So yesterday I hung it up on the wall of the shed. INSTANT floor space. Shit those things take up space! Helps not to throw stuff on the floor which could be put on the steel shelves I installed when we moved in!

I (we) have nearly 200 teddy bears of various shapes n sizes. I made the mistake of selling about 20 used Careflight bears (particular teddy sold by Careflight which is a medical emergency unit here in NSW)at a swap. Now everyone buys us bloody bears (ok ok dad bought a BOX full for $2) to sell.
I am gonna get a strip of velcro on one shoulder of my swapmeet shirt, n stick the Careflight bear i call 'Nudey Pilot Bear' (they all come with little flying or medical based outfits on, so you can have a pilot, or a doorman for the helicopter, a nurse, nurse in the helicopter, doctor, etc). I call him that cuz whoever had him b4 took his little leather jacket off n left his little leather flying cap. Ima ask him if someone makes an offer on something 'surright???' n then do the whole ventriloquist 'yeahhh surright' like the bear is approving the deal . This on top of wearing my Viking helmet. Dad wears red suspenders (NOT the leg type). I am gonna wear my viking helmet! heh

So anyway After I thought i was gonna die...

god Ive been sick

Since friday Ive lost 6 kilos (14ish pounds to the americans). Went to the hospital today. They sent me home 'nothing we can do - youll get over it'

Truth be told I am actually feeling a bit better tonight.

Had a revisit of the gastrointestinal upset I had in May. Murderous. Im surprised noone has actually died from it so far.

Im sorry I havent been blogggin much but stuff keeps getting in the way lately.
The gurl has to go down to sydney to see a neurologist next tuesday as the one up here cant fix her. We have been running about with that for weeks now.

Went to a swapmeet with dad last weekend. 6 hour drive in our new (old) falcon wagon. Rained for TWO WHOLE DAYS then stopped the day the swap was actually on. Sweeeett.

anyway
too weak to type anymore seeyas soon I hope

stuff n stuff

I think my eyesight is getting better
Everything looks a little sharper n better defined.
i feel a bit better too. Maybe the drugs are starting to work a little.

Bought new Nikes on Saturday. As i mentioned somewhere else I have been running about in shoes 2 sizes too big. I have now rectified that. Got dead sexy new nikes (superceded model on sspecial - totally poor I never buy this generation stuff, always stuff I can get at a big dscount. Hell I have been looking at swapmeets for 2nd hand shoes even).finally I dont run like a spaz anymore! The gurl wasnt too unhappy about me getting a pair as the last lot I got that actually FIT I bought in 2000, and I still wear them even though they are totally flogged.

Hopefully i will start to get back some of the fitness I lost through injury.

What a surprise eh?
A girl on Dont Bother 6 here was assaulted by 2 of the male housemembers. Time this sad sad show was axed. Time to admit that the latest bunch are all insipid idiots.
Lets face it - mix a bunch of stone age guys who are barely able to keep their knuckles from dragging, combined IQ smaller than their average shoe size, with too much booze (the shows' producers are to blame for that) and scantily clad young women who are about as smart as their MP3 players, and it is a surprise something like this hasnt happened before. That this show has continued so long is proof that our society is totally decadent. Remember what happened to Rome. The barbarians stormed the walls folks.

Ya find Out Something New Every Day

Doctor put me on prozac last week.
Not cuz Im depressed or anything.
(have been in the past, not now)
She thinks it works well as a weight control thingy. If ya happy ya dont eat as much. Seems to be working too. Tends to suppress your appetite without removing it totally like the phentermine does.

We also did blood tests for blood sugar levels and insulin levels. Turns out I have that type X syndrome thingo where you are insulin resistent. Type of diabetes (type 2 it seems). So I have drugs for that too. Apparently (so she says) being insulin resistent can cause both fat and muscle accretion. Which means weight gain. *sigh*
Apparently resistance means the bod stores sugar as fat immediately AND when demand is made (eg running away from a lion or chasing a squash ball) fat from the stomach is supposed to be burnt once the glycogen in your ready use stores at the muscles is used up (which happens quickly). Insulin acts to access those fat stores. But not if you have whatever it is i have :/ explains the tingling in my legs and arms at night too.
Explains why 3 hours of exercise a day was doing exactly jackshit for weight loss.

Well lol at leas twith the prozac im pretty happy HAH. Sitting here with a stupid grin on my face like ive been smoking dope.

My poor long suffering Peugeot 505 is finally running like itself again.
We discovered (this was a couple of weeks ago) it had a cracked insulator on a spark plug cap (similar effect to a shit plug lead) AND the dizzy cap was corroded inside one of the terminals. Different cylinders too. Amazing it was running at all.
Sorting the timing out via trial and error over the next couple of days/weeks. Got that I think perfect on WEdnesday. As well I reset the fuel/air mixture which I think had crept into the wayyyyyyyyyyy rich zone while fiddling trying to get it runnning right. It is now idling and running better than I think at any time since we bought it. Along with his 4 new tyres n new front shocks n new front brake discs n new pads all round it doesnt know what hit it.

The Ford wagon goes for rego on Tuesday. luckily the guvmint giives us Carers a nice handshake at this time of year so we have the money for rego and to give dad for the parts etc it needed. I think secretly dad is rather impressed with it actually. Hasnt had a bad thing to say about it so far. This from someone whos' father (my grandfather) could not say 'ford' without spitting on the ground. Yes.. I remember seeing him do it. dad has a collection of vintage chevrolets in his garage. Our fambly business involved old chevs at one stage . But come Bathurst every year (big race here in Aus fer the ferriners) we all sat down n cheered on the fords. weird shit. For as long as I can remember I have had an almost visceral reaction against supporting holden racing cars. Which is odd as I dont care one way or the other for EITHER brand. We SHOULD have been holden supporters based on our marked chevrolet preference in old cars. As renault n peugoet have almost never been eligible I had no issues there.

We are trying t odecide whether to go to a swapmeet in blacktown this weekend. Dad is going. Probably will eh.
My exgf n I are BOTH devestated this week. Her cuz Keith Urban got married. Me cuz Nicole kidman got married. Me not so much though.
lol
Have a good weekend eh.

Monday, June 19, 2006

hey swingers

finally I feel human again

I have every episode of Stargate SG1 to watch... nine seasons... average of 15 episodes per season... plus the Atlantis offshoot. 170 plus hours... the gurls' brother loaned them to us on DVD.
watched up to half way through season 5 now... god my eyes are square.. but it is an interesting way to watch a show - you get to see the total development of the ideas and characters in a short space of time. Rather than watch one a week every now n then you get a good dose. Ive enjoyed it actually. it is my favourite scifi series anyway.

there isnt much on during the day anyway lol

well the soccer heads came down with a crash last night
as IF we could beat Brazil!!!
beat those damned english at the rugby though at least
payback....

now NSW needs to beat Queensland again
N rocky youve been amazingly restrained on the subject mate... feel free... they walloped us

wandered into that place.. whats it called... a gym? yeah a gym
today felt weird... everything was the same but different. I have lost SO much fitness this past 3 months of so what with injury and illness. Had a game of squash on the weekend. Went ok. played wednesday night n went shite. Not entirely unexpected I guess. My new shoes are good so thats a plus.

The 'new' car is nearly finished. Now all we have to do is get it registered in the gurls' name n everything is sweeeeet mate. Dad has had no trouble finding bits nor doing the repairs needed. Anyone who knows me knows I have 2 left fists with cars. I KNOW whats wrong but as for fixing it well i'm a spaz.

anyway

have a good time folks

What a Week or Two

Oy

God Im glad to be home!

Though I wwill miss the gurls' 2nd nephew n niece who both seemed to find me intriguing for some reason.
The niece is 2 (ish) n apparently totally ignores her 2 uncles n most of whats happening. She decided to put a quilt over her head n started walking round going 'Raraaarrrrrrrrr ' with her lil hands out the sides like a monster. I said 'oh no its the quilt monster its coming to get me.....when it gets past the armchair, lounge AND coffee table!!!' (she couldnt see a damned thing under it n kept bumping into stuff). She started giggling n fell over. It was a riot. Then when we had to go to the shops she attached herself to my leg n said 'noooooo don't gooooooooo!' n i was all awwwwwwwwwwww isnt she cute.

the boy is 4 nwas a real little monster when he was a toddler. Turned out ok though. He has a mischievous grin n impish sense of humour i reckon. Boistrous without being a pain in the butt. We took them to Donut King one day (truly expected it to be a nightmare) n they were extra well behaved.

Never did get to see any squash played. Was too tired or, when I had the kidney stone, too doped on codeine. Did go see where Geoff Hunts' Squash Centre is though (about 3 minutes down the street from where the gurls' dad works). Didnt go in - had no time as such but I know where it is now eh.

Bought another Grays squash racket while I was down there for the princely sum of $5. N yes it is a modern one. Weird. Its an ok one too. Not shit. Also found the final racket I needed to make my old racket collection complete (for me)
also scored a fine pair of squash shoes which actually fit me properly.
Some numbskull shop assistant told me i took US size 12 so thats what Ive been buying my shoes at the last couple of years. Turns out Im size 10.5. Which problem has been causing much slowness on court (try short sprints n then stop n turn n accelerate the other way with shoes on that are too big youll see - but you wouldnt if you dont put the right sized shoes on) and unco-ness running on the treadmill. To the point where I actually PREFERED my ancient (well.. 5 year old) battered, laceless, heelstrapless (they both broke) old Nike air huaraches to the newer ones I bought about 18 months ago (where I was told I was a size 12) why? cuz they ACTUALLY fit properly! So I am going to have to save some money to buy a pair of crosstrainers that actually are a 10.5 so Im not crippling myself. Hell the new adidas shoes are good. Ive played in them once already n was heaps faster and better balanced (a miracle in itself).

Tried to go to the gym this morning. It was cold. It was freezing. I drove over. the were SHUT. WTF??? Its my BIRTHDAY n they had to be shut? Just cuz it was the queens' birthdya long weekend? bastards.

I now have a Manly Sea Eagles jumper of my very own. suffer all of yers heh.

I have mentioned t oa couple of people that the gurls' brother gave her a car. How cool is that. N it isntsome ancient POS. Its a 10 year old ford wagon. Ok it isnt in perfect condition. It has some stone chips across the bonnet (hood to the yanks) n the odd lil scuffy mark here n there round the body (the bro used it as a work vehicle for a while) but i think most of it will actually polish out with no trouble. Its a nice shiny metallic burgundy colour. Has tinted windows, aircon, cruise control, power front windows, a pioneer CD/tuner n lots of speakers (who cares) and it is powered by a healthy as hell sounding 4 litre six. Went like a bird on the way home. We will need t oget it registered in NSW, its at dads' at the moment getting assessed for what will be needed so far that list is limited to a sump gasket (mebbe), front discs, bonnet and rear hatch struts (they are so gone there will be photos of them under 'gone' in the dictionary). We will also need to do shocks at some point but the bro kindly has already bought all 4 shocks n gave them to us when we got the car. Not shit monroe wiley either - decent quality KYB shocks. It will need michelins at some point too but i think I will be able to pick up a set of them cheap at a swapmeet as the tyre size 205/65/15, is a real common size on Australian made vehicles. If I cant find micheys I should be able to get higher grade goodyears or *spit* dunlops bloody cheap at a swap. As I dont intend to drive the thing like a racecar absolute grip doesnt matter so much as longevity (it isnt my peugeot after all which gets michelins as a sort of droit de birth).

So I had a 36 hour virus which I hope NONE of you get. 12 hours talking to Hughey n shitting through a ring of fire (which unfortunately for me) took place from about 8pm one night so i got NO sleep at all, so besides being dehydrated and weak from no food and achey n miserable as hell from the bug i was also bone weary. Sucked big time to be me fer a while LOL. Glad I didnt have a stone at the same time ida been looking for someoen to shoot me.


Some goon (I suspect the guy who repaired my senior Michelin down in melbourne - it had a slow leak... hey this is an XVS which has 'made in West Germany' stamped inot it so it was made ssomething like 15 years ago n has NEVER been on the road until i got it) put something like 38PSI in each of my michelins at some point in the past 2 weeks. I was feeling so crap for most of it I hardly noticed it except when in the ford as it seemed to ride better than the peugeot (pfft i know i know what a fuggin JOKE that is well I'm serious). I finally checked them all with MY own pressure gauge when I was finally able to see straight n stand up then bend down without falling over n promptly returned them to the pressures god, M. Michelin et M Peugeot decreed apt for a peugeot 505 - 26PIS front, 28PSI rear for town driving (raise to 28/30 for extended open road which I had done to go to melbourne) ahhhhhh thats better. NOW it is supple as a 16yo virgins .... nm ahem...

err is that the time??>>

its me

I'm back
I've been real sick

Ive uninstalled stupid XP
*spits on it*

I have to go now will write more soon.

hey hey hi (No Im not fat Albert)

nah nah nah hows the rest of the song goooooooo (hey hey hi)
We went to a swapmeet on saturday. Shit n sticks it was cold on Saturday night. I gotta fill up my gas bottle n get a little heater attachment. I used to have one but it mysteriously vanished along with lots of my other stuff. I acquired a thermo-rest blow up matress (NOO rocky not a blow up doll I leave those to you - blonde with big tits if i remember correctly) which sorta kept the cold away from my underneath regions. But 2 jumpers, a quilt under me, a blanket AND a dooner over the top n I was still freezing my large buttoff. anyway we had an ok day on sunday (yesterday derr). Got rid of some more stuff we no longer need. Even sold a squash racket (dont die of shock now). Hell I even sold some books. Rocky just fainted you all know.

I take the girl down to Melbourne on wednesday to visit her parents for 2 weeks. She would normally fly down but there is apparently some stuff there which needs to come back here which the airlines wont take (bastards). So we drive down. I drive down in other words. Ima try to go watch some premier league squash (ahh bugger THATS what I was gonna look up online!!) while Im down there at the centre they used for the commonwealth games. Maybe

Anyway I hope everyone is well.

another day another something or other

had another session with the lad today.
He is improving steadily. Partly poslishing of technique n partly he is feeling a bit more into it now he is training with someone who doesnt tell him he is shit every 5 seconds. Doesnt help. he is lucky too in that hhis young lady is NOT a 'hunnido' ie 'hunni do this hunni do that hunni you never spend any time with me youre always off playing *insert spport here*' note tiger woods' game dropped off after he met that bird he is doing. His dad called her a hunnido straight out. The lad has found a keeper basically - she knows when he is on the squash court he isnt out getting shit faced with his smelly mates etc.

I go to the docs again tomorrow to get more codeine forte prescriptions (oh n asthma meds too) as my leg is still painful when the drugs wear off. Ive decided (lisa youll like this) to not play the two winter comps available but rather give the ole driveshaft a rest n just do some serious gym work strenghtening. Started my diet yesterday too. Again. Tired of being fat.Fat n slow. I wanna know , if Im slow its cuz Im slow not cuz I'm a fat git. Mostly though it is just TOO frustrating playing people I think fairly seriously I could beat if I wasnt carrying the equivalent of Catherine Zeta Jones on my back (if it was HER on my back the only thing Id be complaining about is why she isnt on my front with her legs wrapped..... never mind Ima save that mental pic fer later). That means everyone in this town btw. Shit I can run em hard as it is. grrrrr

Found out theres a bloke in my old home town with my name (which is a bit unusual after all) who is a traffic expert. Which I think is rather funny given I flog on about road safety sometimes here. Hell he was even involved in some stuff 2 doors up form where an exgf lived. I mean really my old stomping ground. Mebbe it is identity theft... nah.. though I did get in trouble about 15 years ago in a small town in northern NSW as there was a bloke by the same name who drove the exact same type little orange renault as I did. The number plate was only 1 digit different. The only way to tell em apart was his had roof racks. Guy was apparently a right prick too. We had heaps of trouble with the cops until i went into the copshop n told them in no uncertain terms i WASNT the guy they thought i was. Get it through yer skulls. Amazingly we didnt have any more trouble after that as they actually checked it out n issued a note pointing out that MY rego number was NOT the arsehole blokes' car but the innocent law abiding dudes'. Cops are ok if ya give em a chance mostly. Here anyway. Unless yer a habitual crim - then youve forfeited ya right to a fair go i reckon. Cop it sweet - yer a jerkoff anyway.

hmm dunno what to write about here lol

cant sleep
cant think of anything to write about
going nuts from not playing squash pacing like a caged tiger
like a tiger like a tiger
grrrr
*makes paws batting screen motion with hand*
damnit
Oh god *vomit*I was near forced t owatch 10 minutes of Dont Bother tonight
This is what passes for entertainment on TV these days. The same semi-hysterical late teen/early twenties twittering braindead females you can see EVERY FUCKING DAY at the shops twittering on into their stupid mobile fones to their stupid twittering friends about shit noonegives a flying fuck about hissing cattily about who what where so n so did said thought caty catty bitch bitch meow.
Even the guys on the show had the good grace to just stand there looking bemused and in turn disgusted at the moronic display the girls turned on.
Idiots
My god anyone would think they were working on a cure for death.
News flash. It isnt that important. Simple.
I mean I love my squash n flog on about it 24/7 if i get the chance but shit is is just a game it isnt the cure for the worlds' ills.
I find it amazing that most likely one of those brain dead twits will walk away with a million bucks for being an annoying little fucking drama queen.
We want a new show
One where someone (me) wanders about with camera crew in tow n daily selects some fucking moron to be taken out the back of some quiet place, punched stupid while being told 'wake up to yourself shitwit' then left to fuggin WALK home with a sign which would read 'dont pick me up unless you enjoy spending time with a moron'.

Thank god for the Simpsons.
All Hail Homer
homer homer homer (The chant of the church of the fat bald one).

I originally got up from bed cuz i smelt smoke. After ascertaining (nice word that doesnt get used enough) that my blue heeler hadnt learnt how to start fires I put it down to the many wood fires going as winter is fast approaching n its getting cold.
poor bloke. He is in pain some from where he had the plate put in his back leg as a 4-5 month old pup. Mind you he doesnt mind the cold - used to sleep in the snow. But i think he might have a touch of arthritis maybe. Ima get some celery salt n start adding it to his food again as it seemed to work well last winter. The glucosamine tablets are helping too. Lucky for him he goes to visit nanny n poppy on sunday for 3 or 4 weeks. He loves my father. Its a bit warmer where they are so it should be good for his leg. The gurl is gonna make him a super doopa dog coat while he is away so he will be nice n snug. Might see if there are some tablets I can give him (pain killers for dogs).

Friday is a week since i was told no squash n I disobeyed on tuesday cuz I coach the no.6 in the state under 19 tuesdays n thursdays. I didnt do any running though kept my role fairly static this time. Normally we punch it around for an hour or so then get into the guts of it. I have a theory that if you practice it a bit tired you will know how to do it when you are tired in a match. The ole brain will say like 'oh yeah I can do this'. As neither of us has been particularly well lately its been easy to get tired lol.

Welp i think I might be able to sleep now.

Miners

Hope they don't get those miners out JUUUUUUUUST yet
We could do with getting rid of another couple of pompous self-aggrandising so called journalists.

No seriously hoping today is the day! They must be getting a touch smelly down there eh. Probably hungry too. a little? yeah

I wanna know who was wheeling that poor little Sophie across the road n did she leave her seeing eye dog at home? Poor kid. TWICE now minding her own business (she is too young to be anything but cute) n gets cleaned up by a car. Neither time running out in front unexpectedly etc. Gotta think someone somewhere doesnt like her :/ I cant believe you could MISS seeing a tonne n a half of motor car bearing down on you. Though it happens every day - watch idiots cross the road head down bum up 'if i cant see it it doesnt exist'. Youd THINK ANYONE wheeling that poor little girl around would be like the definition of paranoid crossing roads n walking on footpaths n ANYWHERE not 4 or 5 rooms back from the front of the house. Basically ANYWHERE it was even possible for the girl to get hit by a car again (for those who dont know she was i htink asleep at her pre-school/kindergarten when an old guy had a heart attack at the wheel n came straight through the front of the kindy. She got burned and generally fucked up, i think lost her legs too. Poor little thing she was always cheerful n bouncy. Ok Im getting all choked up here believe it or not. Felt sory fer the bloke who had a heartattack too. Seemed to be a bit of an attempt to demonise him cuz his ticker gave out. hell wasnt like he was drunk/stoned/stupid/speeding etc he had a fucking coronary - Im sure he didnt wake up n think 'today i get me some preschoolers'). Ok the driver the 2nd time round probably needs to be charged - but the person doing the pram pushing should be charged with bloody negligence too. I remember at Stay Upright (motorcycle training) we were ALWAYS told 'doesnt matter who is in the right or the wrong when it is YOU laying on the road bleeding not the guy in the car/bus/truck - you are responsible for your OWN safety' Same applies here.

whats with brain dead poeple letting their kids run screaming across the road to school ? You too fucking lazy to walk them over yourself?? I mean its another 30 metres MAYBE. And what the fuck is wrong with letting them walk down YOUR side of the road to the perfectly good crossing lights OUTSIDE the damn school? Same distance. But with lights. Crossing. Good. Yep. Nearly cleaned up a little boy last week who simply did not look. Did not stop. his mum wasnt even WATCHING him cross the road she was too busy lighting a cigarette n screaming abuse at some other kid who appeared to not be misbehaving. The hide of him. THEN the little prat turned around n RAN BACK OUT n near got smashed by the car coming the other way (I had already stopped n was waiting cuz i had a sneaking suspicion he would do exactly what he ended up doing). So TWICE out from between parked cars. Twice near skittled. Both times WWE (the drivers) would have been hauled off to court to explain ourselves. When clearly the damn mother needed to get her head out of her arse, stop getting pissed before 9am n take some notice of the rest of the world. Grrrrrrr
No it would have been MY fault cuz I'm in a tonne of motorcar n couldnt A) SEE the 3 feet tall urchin below the bonnet line when he ran out 4 feet in front of me n B) couldnt STOP under those circumstances. Well it is just bloody lucky for that kid I saw his brother/friend whatever on the other side turn round n call him over so I hit the brakes on spec. just in case in other words. The litle prick had the nerve to glare at me like it was my fault he near got squished. Arseholes.
Noone teaches anyone to have even any BASIC responisbility for their own actions anymore. Like crossing the road. That is your parents responsibility not mine. Fuck ya I dont know ya. YOU are the one gonna be laying on the road shitwit not me. I might lose my licence for a while (but given I have apretty fair driving record probably not cuz i DO after all care for a disabled person)- youll still be pretty fucked up. Not like I was drunk, stoned or speeding either. My car has near new brakes, disc and pads on the front n pads on the rear, new front dampers AND struts, new michelin tyres all round, all the lights n controls work as per manufacturers specs, AND most important of all I dont drive around with my head up my arse. I constantly amazed HSVgirl with the shit i spot on the sides of the road n up driveways etc. I see (and swerve for) little frogs on the road in the pouring rain at night fer Athene' sake. Hell HSV didnt believe they existed until one cold wet night i STOPPED n SHOWED her the little froggy trying desperately to get to the other side fo the road where the water was cleaner n deeper n just well better.

Situational awareness it is called. Some people (like me) just have it. Most need to bloody practice it. Why? Cuz youre in charge of a heap of bloody steel is why. a ballistic object. Pedestrians need to develop it too cuz you ARENT a heap of steel. A heap of steel CAN however turn you into a ballistic object. A very bloody n floppy ballistic object.
Get with the programme. Get your eyes open n stop doing shit in your car or crossing the road , that isnt either watching or controlling.

bah
natural selection will still weed out the idiots. N good on it I say just dont use ME n my peugeot as an instrument of that selection.

Live n let live eh

'It has taken almost 2,000 years, but those who worship the 12 gods of ancient Greece have finally triumphed. An Athens court has ordered that the adulation of Zeus, Hera, Hermes, Athena and co is to be unbanned, paving the way for a comeback of pagans on Mount Olympus.'



Father Eustathios Kollas, who presides over the community of Greek priests, said: "They are a handful of miserable resuscitators of a degenerate dead religion who wish to return to the monstrous dark delusions of the past."

I hope Zeus kicks that pricks' arse with a thunderbolt!
I'd say Father Eustathios needs to get a life. Stop wearing a dress, smelling incense, shave ya beard n stop insulting people. When your own religion is near enough to 2000 years old its a little hypocritical refering to a 3000yo one as a '...monstrous dark delusion of the past' I say well what the fuck is YOURS then?
I note that in Greece you can be christian, muslim or jew.

So it is ok to worship a 2000 year old god
A 1400 year old god
A 4000 year old (plus... who really knows) god.
So does the Ole Eustathios think the jews are prey to these monstrous dark delusions from the past?
Does Eustathios enjoy shitting all over the ancient religion of his forefathers? Obviously so. I say good on the Greek high Court! All the christians have done for Greece was build a whole bunch of shitty little churches across the landscape, make Greek women wear black 24/7 and generally cause their lives to be bloody miserable. Seems all christians are good for is making people bloody miserable.
All the muslims have done is damn near DESTROY the Acropolis. Thanks. Thanks for using the Parthenon for target practice. Thanks for storing explosives there. Bastards.
Tonight I burn meat from the bull to Posidaio and offer vegetables to Athene that they grant me happiness and the wisdom not to piss off too many of my fellow humans just because Im a narrow minded brain damaged jerkoff who thinks my way is the ONLY way. Oh yeah... thats right im not a fundimentalist christian or muslim my bad.
The only wine I keep is for libations to the gods.
People DO look at you funny when you say you worship the old gods. I kinda enjoy the uncertain look they get.
I also thoroughly enjoyed Ole Eustathios' claim that worship of the gods was a 'poisonous new age practice' . NEW AGE??? You twat. OLD age maybe. These are gods who were gods 1500 years before your god was conceived by the liar Paul as a way of perverting judaism. Hell even Julius Caesar was worshipped ad dium before yours Etatos (thatd be about how his name would come out in linear B). Poisonous hah !!!What exactly poisoned the Roman empire? Ahh yes... weakened from within by the insidious spread of a poisonous sect dedicated to fucking about with the NEXT life rather than getting on with the one at hand. And yes I know it wasnt the only cause. But it sure didnt help.

As for the claims of satanism well this is typical. Demonise it then you can burn the adherents. Or drown them. Or whatever else the demonically possessed superstitious dickheads can think of in the name of the church and 'god'. Interestingly religious persecution was invented by the christians. Didnt happen before they showed up. Only THEY were harrassed for political reasons - not religious. THEY got started on the religious persecutions. bastards.

Let people worship who they want to worship. We can then all sit back smuggly thinking we are the only ones going to heaven or paradise or the elesian fields.

Ahem...
got that off my chest eh.
Missing squash tonight.. nervous nervous twitchingggggg with the jumping n the moving n the not SITTING still. (thats my Prfessor Frink impression btw)
Hope my mate does betterr filling in for me than he did last time.

well the logies wankfest is over for another year. Now we can recover from watching overpaid over pampered show business people fawning over each other n telling each other how talented they are n how wonderful they are etc etc. *gag* Talk about self absorbed self obsessed self pleasuring ...

My dog is totally on the ball lol Today I went out twice i nthe space of about 3 minutes. The first time I had a teeshirt on. the second time I had a sloppy joe on over the top. When he spotted me he was all 'ima DO you jimmy who tha f you think you are in MY yard' then got to about to bite my ankle stage n you could see him think 'shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhit its the boss' n he pulled up real sharp. Now the looks this dog can give youd be forgiven for thinking I beat him within an inch of hislife on a regular basis. Not. He gets the odd tap on the nose when he is REALLY naughty but thats about all. He had that total 'dont hit me massa' look today lol. I gave him a rub behind the ears.
The gurl often says 'if it came down to me or the dog the dog would win eh' to which I say 'of course - I have known my dog since he was 6 weeks old - he is the only person I trust unreservedly who isnt direct family' He never runs away. He never gets shitty with me. He wouldnt dream of leaving me for someone else. When the exwife left he didnt even NOTICE she was gone. top dog that
love me love my dog
simple.

so Blofels do you expect me to talk? No Mr Bond expect you to DIE

Or what the Australian Rugby League team said to the New Zealand team while running on last night.
What was that? yes 50 -12 that WAS the score. That shoullld shut the friggin kiwis up claiming theyre the best in the world for a bit. I mean yes yes yes your lot beat us once in a while *yawn* but it think the respective standings are like 200 - 5 to us for n agin so where you get off thinking youre the best is something of a mystery.

Like those knobhead south africans claiming to be the world champions at test cricket when (read it slowly) since theyve been readmitted to test cricket they HAVE NEVER BEATEN us in a test series. NEVER. Suck on it. I think our lot shut you the HELL up IN SA recently didnt we? yeah. 3 nil wasnt it? yeah. A win here n there dont make you number one. Just like beating ME at squash when I'm doped to the eyeballs on codeine, have 3 teeth screaming for mercy, a broken rib, kidney stones and torn calf muscles is no reason to act like yer shit dont stink every time I say gday to ya (you know who you are though youll likely never read this lol). Hell... I reckon I could near beat Geoff Hunt meself if he had that list of afflictions!

My regular reader (love joo to def Lisa bebe) will note Ive changed the name slightly.
I came to the conclusion that telling people I didnt give a crap what they thought may not be encouraging them to leave comments. Ok ok Im a little slow sometimes.

Watching adverts for that stupid show 'Lost' I am STILL waiting for them to start looking like they have been stuck on an Island for the better part of 6 months now. The fat guy is STILL fat. Go figure. Mebbe diets DONT work. Noone seems to be coming down with any illnesses from vitamin deficiencies, noone seems to have the infected cuts n scratches etc youd expect. Heck they look like fit well fed people in tatty clothing. Oh right...

Dont Bother 6 has started again. Louder, stupider and more often than even before (I know I know hard to believe eh). So theres chennel 10 gone for a while. Thank GOOOD they dont put that horrid Australian Idol on at the same time - I dont think I could stand two dogs or tugs off or whatever the HELL his name is AND the two twittering morons form Idol as well (I am of course talking in advert form only as I refuse to WATCH them) thank god for the Simpsons and Futurama. Theyre the only decent things on 10 at the moment.

We washed the dog yesterday. DAMN she gets dirty considering shes an inside mutt! Half the dog disappeared down the plughole (no there was no evil cat flushing the dog away as per 'Meet The Fockers' it was all dirt).
dogs are funny as hell when it comes to bath time eh? They HATE HATE HATE water n soap with a passion. Once it is over n done with however they tear arse about flat out having the time of their lives they feel that good. Youd think theyd associate 'bath' with WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Im clean Im mean Im a fast doggy machine!!!!!!!!!!!!. My blue heeler just sits there with this 'I thought you were my best friend n you do THIS to me!!' look on his face. He seems to know that struggling only prolongs the agony.

Yeah I have to not play squash for a week or two the doctor said yesterday :/ Already going nuts. Rang round telling people who needed telling so replacements could be arranged. Getting twitchy. Luckily she gave me gooooooooood drugs for the pain *sigh*. *relax* mmmmm yeah floating flooooooating damn baby yeah.codeine nnnnnnnnnice couldnt give me pethadine *grumble* I said oh you can just jab me in the butt with a needle I know you cant prescribe it. She agreed peth was wonderful stuff - last time she had it she enjoyed wandering through her garden looking at the flowers ROFL . My doc is cool.

Ok I need sugar so Im outa here.

KASSI WHERE ARE YOUOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU being 'away' on MSN is NOT exactly 'being' online damnit. People are worried. Questions may be asked in parliament.

I won!

Played two matches on wednesday night

One the first as expected (the bloke ALWAYS gets one damned game off of me damnit cept when i am REALLY trying hard)
Then I went down to the main game. Guy Ive never beaten. BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG hitter. Smashes it. Lost the first, looked up at the captain of our team n said 'well I'm playing as well as Ive played since I started playing again - this is the best I can do n it simply isnt good enough'

Then won the next 3 straight 9-4, 9-3, 9-2. Won going AWAY. As HIS captain was overheard saying to him after game 2 ' he plays a high risk /high reward style of squash - when its on its on DONT play him at his game' heh.
He tried matching it stroke play fer strokeplay n couldnt do it.
God it felt good. This is the bloke who smashed me 9-5, 9-3, 9-2 in the forst round when I was sick as a dog. Felt good. Especially as i felt like id been hit by a truck going into the game.

Funny thing form. Whenever i feel super I play like shit. Its like ya a bit high or something n cuz I feel so good (compared to normal) I think I dont concentrate anywhere near as hard as I should. Make silly mistakes. When I feel sore n achey all over I play extra well I think cuz I concentrate super hard. Last night I felt almost indestructable on the court. I knew I couldnt run down EVERY shot he hit so I quickly chose if i thought i could A reach it n B was it worth the effort?. If the answer to B was hell no I didnt try to run it down. My trouble is inertia due to my stupid weight. Once I get GOING I move as quick as anyone. Its the GETTING going that is the trouble. And going forward up the court I seem to find troublesome. Always have. So I make a choice with what shots to chase n what not to. I realised today that in game one (lost 9-5) I made a conscious choice to force rallies deep down my backhand side. Normally 2 righthanders both go at it down THEIR backhands (lefty forehand) n the pattern remains when they play us lefties - consequently we get lots of forehand practice (pattern also holds when 2 lefties play - unconsciously we are used t oplaying down the forehand court all the time). So I decided to MAKE the game rotate down my backhand side - even though it exposed me to my opponents' formidable forehand drives. I think my subconscious knew I could beat him there if i could frustrate his drives to length. Which I did in the second game - also I switched the play annoying back n forth to my forehand to try to break up his confidence.
I also murdered EVERY (well almost) serve he delivered to my backhand with poetic crosscourt volley nick kills, firm straight volley drops n delicate little cross n straight drops off serves I couldnt volley - to the point where he KNEW if he won the rally his serve was gonna get the treatment -which made his serves WORSE to my delight.

Sorry
I'm well chuffed
I played as well as I think it is possible for me to play last night n i DONT feel sore n sorry today. It feels nice to have finally put together a total game - running n moving unhindered n without serious restriction of breathing through asthma, hitting shots the way they should be hit, whether aggressive attacking strokes or positional play, knowing when I DID play a poor tactical shot or a rare mis-hit why it happened n how to avoid it again. N I didnt get cranky at anything. THAT shows me I was actually concentrating on the GAME.

Now I just have to do it the same every week.


Well the weight is sloooowly hovering its way downward. Again. *sigh*

I have to go to the cardiologist on monday. The doc SAYS the cardio said there was nothing wrong. So I says well why does he wanna see me then? Couldnt answer. doh
He put me on one aspirin a day which is a blood thinner. Dope. Aspirin is contra-indicated for asthmatics. Which is why Ive been sucking on my ventolin (salbutimol) so much lately. Happily though I am getting better sleep since the doc changed my evening prventer to one with no ventolin in it as it acts as a sort of 'upper' making it hard to sleep. So that is good as my regular reader will remember I was going slowly crazy for a while there.
I figure there cant be tooooooo much wrong as I suspect Ida dropped dead by now with the amount of squash Ive been playing lately. enough so that Ive decided to rest from squash from today (thursday) until mebbe sunday arvo or even up to comp on monday night. Just go to the gym in the mornings n work on the weight loss n cardio vascular etc. Reason being When I got to the courts last night I could barely lift my arm it was so sore. Once I got playing it was ok but b4 n after sucked. Simply too much i think.

Anyway...

More tomorrow mebbe

is this blog eviiiiiiiiiil??

Well lets see if THIS one takes

Ive been trying to make a blog entry for on n off fer about 2 weeks now. Stupid thing. Keeps cancelling the damn entry or the server shits or my connexion quits BAHHHHHHHHHH.

so its ANZAC day on Tuesday. Who is with me? Ima go egg Stockland Mall cuz theyre gonna be OPEN from 1pm. Bastards. Is NOTHING sacred anymore??
I remember (cue music n think old fart remembering ) car yards which opened on ANZAC Day would have loads of people driving by throwing cartons of eggs on the displaying cars. Shops which dared open would get the ole ring their number from a phone booth n leave it off the hook treatment. Do it from 3 phoneboothes n most small businesses had no phones (here in Australia the receiver of a call hanging up does absolutely zip - only the caller can terminate the call).

Now they think its ok to 'honour our fallen by not opening until 1pm' screw you fascist pigs. STAY FUGGIN SHUT n go down to the RSL n buy a digger a beer yah carns. Australia Day we couldnt give shit what ya do - but STAY SHUT ON ANZAC DAY you twats.
There was a 'battlefield detectives' episode on last night in which a geologist who has obviously been bitten by the history bug 'discovered something which may revolutionise study of the Gallipoli campaign' - to whit - terrain played a major role in the Turkish victory.
Like noone before him had EVER had the brains to notice what a SHITE place it was to try to land troops in the face of enemy fire. The historian from the royal military college n the Turkish historians were clearly just humouring the burk. It was like they were all saying 'well DERRR just fuggin LOOK at it willya' under their breath.

Orright
anyone heard from kassi?
Um I gonna huve to gut on to the NZ pulice wubsite n ruport her mussing??
(*choke* *gasp* couldnt help mysulf surry) I miss talking to my kiwi bud.

Am still hobbling about from wednsday night - played three matches practically back to back. Had a red hot go in all three too. NOW i remember what my legs felt like after lots of work. Hot baths, 2 visits to the gym, lignament, none of it has helped - ima bite the bullet tonight n have half a codeine tablet to settle it down a bit.

We went to a little town up near Cessnock on monday morning where a market day was being held. Couldnt believe the number of people who showed up as this was really the middle of NOWHERE.

Welp

talk to you lot soon

sometimes I wonder if there really is a god

Im not talking about yer standard judaeo/christian offering. Dont really know what I mean exactly, but...

When you stand on the tee at sunrise n watch it peep over the shoulders of the hills on the other side of the lake, wait for the various species of cockatoos to do their worship the sun thing,then hit a perfect drive straight down the middle picture perfect n hear the gunshot crack of the perfect 1 wood shot then perrrhaps there is some sort of god out there. I think he plays golf. I think she plays golf.

There is no god. If there were I would not be so ill-equipped to play squash. My legs are too short. My reflexes are too slow. I simply cannot hit the damn ball anywhere near as hard as I want to. I wouldnt be shortsighted. I would have a lot more fast twitch muscle fibres. I would be able to run all day without getting tired. Sweat wouldnt shit me shit me shit meeeeeeeee. Everyone tells me Ive 'got the shots' whatever that means to them - to me it means bloody hard work on a daily basis - I have no natural ability you see. So I think there may be some form of impish mischievious demon (in the non satanic sense) who enjoys these sorts of practical jokes.

I know I cannot hit the ball as hard as the top pros. Hell I cant hit it as hard as the top guys where I play. Shits me bad that do. God is a funny guy/gal/EBE, though, Ive stood on the same driving range with one of Australia's top golf pros, with same bucket of crappy red striped driving range balls aiming at the same distance marker 270 metres away n hit it just the same as the pro. Infact I got bored n started hitting the 300 metre sign. Which he couldnt reach. Drive for show they say. Generally people who cant drive. I always said back ' I'll take my 2 putts n be happy Ive taken ONE shot to reach where you are in 4 - so what if you one putted woohoo'

So I could probably be pretty good at a game I play once a year these days if Im lucky. But started playing too old n late - didnt pick up a club til I was 24. But I am eternally frustrated at the game I actually love.

Im not gonna buy into the 'why would god preate hurricanes etc' argument as they are understandable naturally occuring phemonena.


Ok picking on TV time again:

I don't watch Threshold - if I wanna see alien conspiracy shit on TV I go get an old X-files tape cuz atleast Scully has gorgeous tits.
But this struck me in the TV guide this week. Some guy in the show gets turned into an alien/human hybrid buy (get this its a HOOT) EATING some alien dna. Right.
I eat cow DNA every day nearly. *checks for horns* no not that one. heh no I think I am maintaining my essential humanness. Apparently eating alien DNA is enough to mutate your own DNA. Quite. Here is a tip shitwits. It might make you a little SICK cuz your body hasnt evolved to PROCESS it as food but I'm pretty sure any DNA you injest will be unhappy at BEST when it hits the hydrochloric acid in your stomach. At LEAST the X-files had top scientists working for 50 years to combine human and alien DNA to try to make a hybrid. That was somewhat buyable in the 'ok its the X-Files I'll suspend disbelieve a touch' vein. But EATING DNA ? please.

N they keep rehashing that old bloody 'Bermuda Triangle' crap up too. Someone should follow the footnotes one day it gets interesting.One author quotes another who quotes the first author round n round it goes. In the bullshit books I mean. I mean seriously. That area of the Atlantic is KNOWN for the od hurricane once in a while. You think the odd ship might not go down in the ODD storm? wow what a concept. I wish I could remember the name of the book I read when I was about 25 which totally put it in perspective for me. The guy actually went n traced EVERY so-called 'famous' incident. What you read or see portrayed on tv isnt ever what really happened. If the story starts 'It was a bright sunny day when they set out to go fishing' then 'they' were either half tanked idiots sailing out in the eye of a hurricane or it was right on dusk n a bloody great storm was about to hit. The one I remember clearest was about the ship the Marine Sulphur Queen. Wow it 'mysteriously vanished' one day. Yep loaded with suphur. Yep in rough seas. Yep people heard a 'mysterious' explosion out to sea. Yep the thing BLEW UP. Yep that class of ship had a HABIT of blowing up. What a 'mystery'.

douchebags

I am willing to believe that bigfoot exists though.
I think the yeti is a rare form of tibetan bear which has been hyped out of all recognition by western media.

I think the loch ness monster is a giant otter
I mean really
There simply isnt enough biomass to support a breeding population of large dinosaur like creatures. besides. You think they wouldnt be found easily enough with sonar n a sunny afternoon? Derr. We can find submarines in the OCEAN pretty easy n they are actively trying to hide.A lake is just not the same in volume terms. OK mebbe the great lakes in america or lake Baikal theyre pretty damned big. But really. I think a giant otter at about 6 or 7 feet tip to tail would look pretty damned impressive to someone who had been indulging scotlands other famouos export.

hooray for me

Well thats ONE monkey off my back at last!
I finally beat the one woman at squash Ive been gritting n grinding my teeth about fer 2 years. Sick n tired of playing 5 set matches against her n losing in 5. Shit me shit me good it did well I finally did it i beat HER in 5. I think injuries aside, I have gotten over the voodoo curse that was hovering over me whenever I played her. Now I just have to beat that damn doctor (another 'shit here comes a 5 setter' n yeah likewise i get up 2-0 n lose in 5 go figure :/ ) n the voodoo curses will be broken.

Ya know some ppl you arent gonna beat unless there is something wrong eh. One of the girls I play with is 20ish, super fit n hits the ball rather nicely. I can stay with her to about 3-3 in the first game after which I'm basically knackered n she wins easily. Fitness... *sigh* No annoyance at losing to Lisha - shes fitter n faster than me. When I lose to someone who is fitter but simply not as good a player I get the shits with myself though. when I was 20 I cant remember dropping more than a couple of points to ANY woman I played. too fit, too fast, hit the ball too well. would that I could now :/ But atleast now ive got that monkey off my back anyway. Its generally the way though eh. Theres always someone you SHOULD be able to beat pretty easy n ya cant but once you crack it you wonder what the fuss was about. Theres a guy at one centre i play at i beat him 3-0 he beats me 3-0 n when we catch each other when we are BOTH playing either well or shit it goes to 5 n take ya pick who wins. His ssheer fitness balances out my shot playing or my strokeplay works him enough that I try his fitness. When I am ON my game n he isnt mooving as well as normal i flog him - when I am struggling with ball control n he is wizzing around the court he flogs me. Swings n roundabouts. I dont mind losing in that situation. It is always a good game.

I have another 2 hours on the court tomorrow with the Number 6 ranked under 19 in NSW (New South Wales for the illiterate). I coach him twice a week - Tuesdays n Thursdays. He is obviously able to beat me blind at the moment as he hits the ball well n moves like lightning. Bastard. Nah he is a good lad actually. Hasnt got his head quite as far up his arse as most 19yos. I havent got much I can teach him about ball striking - he does that well enough. just working on attitude, training aspects n drilling him on the basics which can be easily forgotten under pressure. I know I can do ok with this as the victim (he whom I havent mentioned in a while) has actually started winning tough games in our local comp. Games which 12 months ago he would have lost easily. I can see the improvement in his game. N I know it is mostly down to the work we have done over the last 12 months. He is a far better player now than he was then.

Well another Easter is around the corner n as usual the good ole christians have forgotten it is basically passover for our jewish friends.
Ive always found it remarkable that we (I come from christian background) stole an enormous volume of lore n straight out history from the jewish people n claimed it seemingly as the birhtright of western europe (intriguing that in itself) but then this is the self same culture that for a 1600 or so years thought pogroms were just so much fun for the whole family. So its ok to steal their heritage but it isnt ok to respect their right to exist? Seems whacky to me. For the sake of the moonbat religious nutters who are all there muttering 'they killed jesus' well they didnt. Last time I checked crucifixion was a particularly ITALIAN punishment. I was gonna say peculiarly Roman but thought rocky might take me to task by pointing out the romans probably learnt it from the Etruscans. so it wouldnt indeed be peculiarly 'roman'. Kassi stop muttering 'anal retentive' i CAN hear you (ok ok only in my head)!
Remember
To join the PFJ youd have to REALLY hate the Romans!!

ahem
next

Just watched that thing Bettany Hughes did on Helen of Sparta (I know I know she is more popularly known as helen of troy but she was the daughter of the king of sparta, the man she MARRIED became king of SParta because he married her n AFTER he went n took her BACK from Troy she was queen of sparta AGAIN - seems to me she is Helen of Sparta) N I just wanna know where Bettany Hughes was when I was at uni learning about this stuff - I mean no offence ladies I was at uni with but she is a knock out. If I was able to I think I would be on a plane n talking ancient methods of seduction with her. She even looks good in jeans.

There was also a thing on rockys' mate Mike Morwood n Homo floriensis. I dont know how ANYONE who has seen an H erectus skull would think floriensis was a modern human. it looks just like a shrunk H erectus skull.

Mind you I cant for the life of me see the so-called 'modern' aspects of those skulls in Israel they make such a song n dance about as being thousands of years earlier than H. neanderthals found nearby. They look pretty damned UNmodern to me. They look pretty neanderthal to me. Ok they seem fairly gracile but hell they dont look anything like modern.

I like that new meat advert. Cept... Sam Neil mentions Homo Habilis n the the little girl mumbles something about Homo Rudolfensis. Rocky youre closer to this than me study wise but wasnt rudolph a closet erectus? The super splitters are taking over palaeoanthropology again worse luck. Now it seems (as it was in the 20-30-40s) if you find it it HAS to have a new name - it couldnt POSSIBLE be related or the same as that one found by your 'esteemed' colleague with whom you are competing for grant moneys n publishing credentials. Dudes... if it LOOKS like a duck, waddles like a duck n quacks like a duck its PROBABLY a fuggin duck ok.

It seems Ive traumatised rocky describing myself as running like a surprised gibbon caught inserting a piece of fruit up its arse. Heh. Hope the nightmares coincide with junior wanting tto be heard at 4am. heh
sorry mate

just been on that friends united website looking through lists of people I went to school with.
amazed at how few of the names ring a bell. I guess it wasnt a bad thing though cuz I I am back in contact with my first gf (the first one who mattered). We hadnt had any contact at all from 1985ish until she emailed me in 04. Was cool.

damn I hate the night Ive played squash. I cant sleep from adrenaline. Too tired to go for a walk (n frankly too scared in this neighbourhood - its ok during the day but i dont think Id like to wander at night). But Im too buzzed to sleep.

been a while

hidiho folks

ankle is better
wrist is better
calf muscle is better
touch wood (rocky where are you i wanna knuckle yer head) my shoulder is better too.

N yeah kassi mate the yanks blew their chances of ruining the commonwealth games for everyone else in 1776. Talk about short sighted eh. Whoda thunk theyd go fer short term gain over long term sensibility. No representation without taxation i say!

rocky you BETTER send damn pix so i can ascertain the child resembles its mother (everyone pray that is the case).

Hiya Barbfromcali *makes international 'hang 5' symbol with his hand* I care for a lady with schizophrenia and depression and who has just lately started having seizures. Tom Cruise is a gormless twit. Obvious to me he has NEVER seriously encountered anyone with a mental illness. INCLUDING the homeless people who root through his garbage. Maybe if yer such a bloody EXPERT Tom you could pay for those poor souls' medications for a couple of weeks (not like you couldnt afford it ya filthy rich nob) n SEE if they dont seem to be a little more coherent n actually functional again. Wow you say? never THOUGHT of that? More interested in very publically first adopting some kid form somewhere with much 'look at me im great' fanfare then knocking up some poor sweet innocent looking gal like yer the first dirty old man who ever thought of it?

I will NEVER go to another tom cruise movie.
EVER
cock with legs


Hiya Lisa my ankle is better now LOL
I thought pain only came in threes i got four. No fair no fair!
Now I can actually run wihtout looking like a distressed gibbon caught inserting a large piece of fruit up its rectum I actually WON 2 of the 3 games of squash I played this week that meant anything! yay (just a little yay).

Those crazy oil companies!! Gee wizz I feel sorry for them ya know! Theyre such a (as our american capitalist pig friends would say) such a buncha SWELL guys! OF COURSE its just a coincidence that petrol has gone from $1.07 in Windsor (mum lives there) to $1.38 in the space of the time it took mum to fill up (thank god) then think 'oops forgot****' n turn around to go back past the servo she filled up at where it was suddenly a WHOLE bunch dearer to buy petrol, JUST before Easter. Just a coincidence it went up THIRTY CENTS just before Easter eh? Like it used to be 'just a coincidence' the %^@#$&(() unions went on strike JUST before christmas EVERY YEAR. Wow what a load of old...... coincidences.... Ya know what really riles? THEY THINK WE ARE STUPID ENOUGH TO BUY THAT BS. no such THING as coincidences. There are seemingly random events which occur through some deeper pattern. IE 'oil company exec says 'lets make more money'. Funny how stuff flows downhill from there.
You are all arseholes. You know who you are.
RISE UP FELLOW PLEBS!!!! Dont use your cars for a fortnight!! Make the forecourts of the petrol stations resemble a Brisbane broncos supporters party ANYWHERE in Australia (other than brisbane) IE desolate...vacant...ghostly in the nonappearance of people. Thatll bring the fuckers to their knees. WRite to your local member of parliament telling the sod or soddess that you will NOT countenance the government helping the poor now somewhat less wealthy oil companies out!! Write to them telling them to remove the 'world parity bullshit' - the goddamned AMERICANS dont do it why should we? Bigger taxes on fat ugly view blocking 4WDs Unless registered by farmers or rural workers (they NEED em). Tax breaks on smaller nippy sweet handling European cars (in fact write to your local member telling him/her to GIVE the mongoose a nice new Peugeot 307GTI you know you want to! [who said i was doing this outa the outrage in my heart eh eh])

N while youre at it

Tell them we DONT need american oranges while OUR farmers are ploughing their oranges into their fields cuz they cant compete!
We dont need Nigerian bananas (ok we may just need nigerian bananas at the moment)
Ive put my money where my mouth is! Told woolworths that I refuse to buy american oranges from their store. Apples too any fruit not grown here can kiss my fat white wiggly arse. I aint eating it.



yeah

bastards

dunno what ima go about today

ok
jenna elfman looks too hot fer words in a purple figure hugging dress. Should almost be illegal to look that good.

Lisa you'll laugh
I sprained my ankle on saturday afternoon :/ damnit

Tom Cruise you might be a rich movie star type but yer a prat. I figure if you HAD medical degrees youd be parading them about. As you don't seem to be I will assume you don't have them. So
SHUT yer fat yap about shit you know nothing about. Your moron opinion is as ill-informed n brainwashed religio-crap as when the stupid church reckoned mental illness was possession by the devil. Lets face it the catholic #@$#!@%&*%#%@$^ church has gotten over that idea n they DEFINE monolithic moronic creaky attitude. Hell at leas the catholics purport to follow someone who said reasonably decent shit like love ya neighbour etc not 'zorkon raised the antigrav shields n hit re-ignite before the quarton battlecruisers could destroy his small craft' or some such BS. You know dont you that starting a religion is a TAX SHELTER. I reckon elron is shitting himself laughing wherever he is right now. poor poor Katie Holmes. Thank god our Niki isnt involved with you anymore ya nutbag.
Hope like HELL you get schizophrenia or develop depression when ya next 10 movies flop like a fat guy in a diving pool. Suck shit ya prick. go play dressup in ya mums' wardrobe. again.
ok got that off my chest lol

congrats to my mate rockape on the birth of his son. 10 pound eh... shit mate... yer poor missus...



so the games are over fer another 4 years. I'd like to take this opportunity to say suffer in ya jocks the rest of the commonwealth!!! WE RULE. heh.
N wasnt it nice to have a 2 week sporting period without those nasty arrogant americans spoiling it fer everyone else.

sundries (sorta in the cricket sense)

well Ive sorta joined kassis' daughter.
Doctor at the hospital thinks Ive got a broken scaphoid bone in my right wrist (n NO rocky it isnt from wanking - Im LEFT handed remember?) and ive sprained it.
It was either my wrist or my head hit the wall. I chose wrist. Amazing the time you have to make decisions when theres something critical to the outcome. I ran into a wall at squash on monday.
Ok have you all stopped laughing? good cuz it hurts to type ya bastards.
bastard (doc) didnt put it in a cast. why IS that? it HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRTS.

Ok
So the commonfilth games are on.
You may or may not know it but i enjoy the odd game of squash. Agame in which Australia can be reasonably expected to do well in as we have the world number 1 and 2 men, and the world number one woman (n her sister is like number 4). So how much squash did we see????

lemme count to be completely fair....
about 4 minutes (TOTAL) for the women.
the only mens squash i saw was the last 2 points of the MENS FINAL !! Lasted about a minute. To be completely fair mebbe they showed some other mens play. ok call it 3 minutes. So of a WORLD sport played by MILLIONS throughout the commonwealth and hundreds of thousands of people in Australia alone (mebbe a million i know thats the figure they were talking about in the 80s as a participation rate) in other words... FAR more people actually play squash on a weekly or monthly basis than take part in swimming (we got bloody HOURS of swimming days of it which is fine as we generally CLEAN yer clocks for ya regardless of where you are), we got fuggin HOURS of weightlifting. WEIGHTLIFTING!!! 3 seconds of 'action' followed by 5 minutes of people standing around doing FUCK ALL, n when THAT excitement reached fever pitch we transfered to the weightlifters warm up room where EVEN LESS was happening!! Fer FUCK SAKE CHANNEL NINE!!!! THEN we go to the table tennis... woo hoo... oh yeah we can watch a COMPLEAT bloody table tennis game cant we? theres what? 12? 15? people in the entire country who play it competitively?
Then we get the bore your TITS off idiot twaddle from the desk commentators... Heres a tip... dont EVER EVER EVER let some dope from the AFL (fer the rest of yas Australian Football LEague.. that mob of too tall ppl who play that game down south the rest of us call aerial pingpong) commentate on anything that isnt AFL!!!! They WILL introduce AFL into the bloody discussion adnauseam EVEN when theyre interviewing someone from the bloody Cayman Islands. Tip mate.. the rest of the country couldnt GIVE A FUCK, n Im damned sure the rest of the commonwealth doesnt either. Besides which he sounds like a moron. Now those who know me know i cant stand Ray 'rabbit' Warren, channel nine rugby league caller, cuz it ALWAYS seems like he is watching a different bloody game to the rest of us (Id be in sporting heaven if Rabs went to channel seven cuz then he would be with bloody twat bruce macavaney {only the people who run these shows seem to like him - mention him to the people who have to WATCH the twat n theres groans n 'oh HE isnt calling it is he?} n bloody johanna greigs both of whom I cant stand. Now Im sure they are lovely people n i got nothing agin em personally - neither of em ran my dog over etc but im sick of the sight of johanna greigs nmacavaney is another of these victorian based nobs who are totally obsessed with AFL n work it into ANYTHING they are talking about)and then I wouldnt have to watch him cuz now channel seven has the AFL i have NO reason ever to watch their sports broadcasts. So he gets to call the swimming. to his eternal credit not once have I heard him gratuitously introduce rugby league into a call of the swimming. He may have mentioned it once or twice in a 'that happened to me when I called manly V newcastle once' sorta vein which is ok.
But he doesnt bugger on about it every 2 minutes.
EVERY single squash player in this area is pissed off channel nine. We stay up late to watch the squash n get butt FUCKED with a minute here n there. Thanks fer NOTHING. I know fox showed the entire matches etc but most of us cant afford/cant get pay TV. N my gym ISNT OPEN AT 11PM!!!!

*gasp*
pricks
fuggin weightlifting.. big participation sport that.
fuggin table tennis... thrill a day sport there.
bet we see plenty of synchronised stupidity i mean swimming too.
wow shooting see plenty of nobs with shotguns. not sure bout the relevance there folks. N i am not some whack job lefty wanker who thinks all guns should be banned - cuz THEN only the crims will have guns. They are by NATURE law breakers morons - what do they care they get a firearms offence when they are facing 10-15 fer armed robbery eh? but im not sure a sport which practices for shooting poor bloody ducks should still be part of the lineup. Show us the gold medal round n fuck it off.

Now Im tres sad fer the people in Far North Queensland who got smacked in the face by cyclone larry... NNN I know rocky youll have friends n relos suffering n I hope theyre ok.
but
fer FUCK sake ! to those whiney types who blasted both the prime minister and the Qld premier yesterday about 'doing nothing' well I hope YOURE the last people who get helped! shit a brick folks. it happened MONDAY thats 3 days ago! the army is already on the bloody job. Insurance looks like actually being worth the money its printed on. Im not really sure what they expect the Pm n the premier to DO in 2 days! At least they showed up! You cant just like FLICK your fingers n make the ouchey ouchey go away dickheads. What do you want? Unlike the US president Im fairly bloody certain our lot are doing everything they can as FAST as they can. Shit like this isnt instant - and face it you live in the middle of bloody NOWHERE so it takes a while to get in. So stop whining n take a deep breath n think 'thank GOD Im alive'

Look
I have a basic philosophy on life.
It is ok to rail against shit all you want.
Hell give em crap about stuff thats changeable
but there are some things that whinging about it wont change. There are certain immutable laws. Such as relief efforts take time to organise. Planes take time to get there. Even the best organised emergency people take time to get going!
If youve just been in a car crash its no use worrying if your CV is good enough for the job interview you were going to - you have more important things to worry about (remember the basic principle can be applied anywhere).
Dont fucking sweat the shit that is either too big for you to worry about (you cant change it so dont get upset over it) like bushfires n cyclones.
Ive always thought it the height of stupidity to scream if you are in an aeroplane which is gonna crash. Is it gonna help? Doesnt it have SUCH a calming effect on the flight staff allowing them to do their job more efficiently? Thats the job that MIGHT save you fucking useless life ya ssmeghead so shut the fuck up n stop distracting them. I hope if i am ever in that situation the gods give me the strength to belt a few people who ARE screaming n being bloody annoying to give the rest of us some peace in our last moments. Screaming doesnt help unless youre being raped/bashed/crushed or the like.


Oh yeah
Hands up if you have alittle girl?
ok
Hands up those who taught their little girl NOT
TO
FUGGIN
SCREAM
AT
THE
DROP

A
HAT????
I cant COUNT the number of times ive run out to see if that little girl in the park was being assaulted to find them playing happily. Drives me nuts. When ya have a go at them n their mbrain dead mothers you get that blank' im ok jack but you need to relax' look. fuggin zombies
