This movie completely blew me away as a 16 year old in the 70s. Network. Absolutely brilliant.
Today, after not having a shower for three days and having back and forth pointless telephone calls, dealing with incompetent real estate agents and electrical repair companies, I was reminded of this phrase from Network…
‘I’M AS MAD AS HELL [...]

…or at least seems that way. You can’t say “boo to a lesbian” these days. Or is that “boo to a goose”? Well anyway, I was forcefully reminded of this T-Shirt sent to me by a rather sick (minded) friend in America. Someone who knows me and my sense of humour well. Too well actually [...]

Bloody breeders. Popping out their spawn and then treating them like dolls in an artificial world where they get anything and everything they want. On demand. Right bloody now.
I’ve had enough of ‘em.
Today I traversed buses, trains, shopping centres, the city and a cinema. And I came to the conclusion that, not only should their [...]

Sunday night in London.
I should be out tripping the fight lantastic. But I am in my hotel room and I want to go to bed. I am tired.
Star Trek 12 – So Very Tired kind of tired.
I’ve had a look through the free mags [...]

Crash, crash, 48 crash…crash, crash…waaaaaaahhh….
Not the song.
Me.
When I first visited London I was in my early thirties. I had jetlag for a few days and then never looked back.
I am no longer in my early 30s.
Walking around London last night – Oxford Street, Charing Cross Road, Piccadilly Circus etc. – I found the crowds and [...]

It was the week from hell and luckily I’m still here to bitch about it!
It all started Monday morning – I got woken up by a text message from a friend in Sweden at 6.30am. I’d gone to sleep late and the beeping sound of the phone really made me jump up. After looking at [...]

The above photo is a quick snap – a rather bad one at that – taken at Milsons Point train station in North Sydney just after 8.30pm on Wednesday night. I had to stop and take this shot as I waited for the train because I was gobsmacked by it.
Yes it IS winter in Australia [...]

It’s definite: I need a holiday. Tilt. Overload. Kerplunk.
You know when you’ve just had enough of everything and you need some time out? Yeah well, that’s where I’m at. I need a big fat week away somewhere doing sweet F.A.
Some shopping, some drinking, some walking and lots of sleep. Lazy mornings leading into lazy [...]

The cover charge was $5. I would have gladly paid $10 if they’d just given me a warning: “this will be the worst organised shambles of a Eurovision party ever. Rush home immediately and save yourself!” Actually, I’d have paid even $20 for that advice.
Last night we decided to do something different for Eurovision. Normally [...]

What a bust of a day. I slept for 12-13 hours and didn’t get up until just after 2pm.
I groaned since the day was alredy half over. It’s great to catch up on sleep after a crap week at work but 2pm is just nuts.
When you’ve slept that long you often wake up feeling a [...]
