Daners, I have good news and bad news….

The good news is that today I read the following quote about Oz men in an Oz magazine, “Aussie guys are like no other men in the world.  They’re very down to earth and masculine, which is always a turn on.  And they’re more handsome than men in the US – much more chiselled and rugged.”
See, coming [...]

Photography 101

In 1988 when I was doing my HSC (Higher School Certificate – equivalent to senior year in the US) a new art teacher started at my school.  His name was Mr Krausen.  He was tall, blonde, blue eyed, German, attractive and drove a Volvo.  Very Aryan, except I don’t think many Aryans drove Volvos in the [...]

Inane Bletherings (2)

I had a facial yesterday for my birthday.  Not just any facial, mind you.  A collagen facial.  Meant to banish my wrinkles.  I’ve not had a collagen facial before, so I just assumed that all the cleansers, scrubs, toners and moisturisers that the beautician used were chock full of that good collagen stuff.
So I’m laying [...]

From darkness comes light

Apart from the day that my mum passed away, today was officially the hardest day of my life.  Nothing else that has ever happened to me has been near as hard as today.  Today was mum’s funeral and the day that I had to deliver her eulogy.
The eulogy that I was up until midnight last [...]

A Woman (womenz) Scorned

Audi?
Check.
Charcoal grey?
Check.
Whorelando’s car?
Check.
Wait a phucking minute.  Whorelando’s car?  Oh noes!!
Alright, fess up.  Which one of us is responsible for this?
I know that we are all upset by Whorelando’s philandering ways, by his gallivanting with the wild desert dog.  I know that each of us have probably thought about doing something like this to punish him [...]

Looks like Wanda gave the DingHo the cabbage!

According this piece of journalistic brilliance the DingHo bytch fancies herself a bit of a modern day hippie.  She eats organic food (I would too if I could afford it), she unplugs all her appliances when she’s not using them (kind of defeats the purpose to unplug them when you’re actually using them, dumbass) and [...]

Guess who’s going on a summer holiday?

Give up?  Want me to tell you?  Ok.  It’s ME!  Yep, I’m going on a summer holiday.  Southern hemisphere summer BTW.  I’ll be saving up to pay said holiday off over the coming months.
The idea of this summer holiday was first raised when I was away on my girls weekend in early April.  Hard to [...]

I just don’t understand (part whatever number I’m up to)

I do some of my best thinking in the shower.  And some of my best singing.  Great acoustics in my shower.  But back to thinking.  I get a bit of time to think while I’m in the shower, most particularly when I wash my hair, coz I’m generally in there for a little longer than [...]

My Story

Don’t get too excited.  This is not the great Australian novel.  I no longer have the ideas, thoughts or talent to write anything like that.  This is the story of my adoption. 
I found out the hard way that you should record history somewhere, somehow before it’s too late.  Not that I think that I’ll have anyone [...]

WTF have you been doing Orlando Bloom?

I appear to have been fooling myself.  I thought that you were a clean living young man worthy of my adoration.  You’re a Buddhist for phucks sake.  When I think Buddhist, I think Dalai Lama, I think Buddhist monks.  I think celibate, clean living celebrity.
You’ve blown the celibate thing right out of the water by [...]
