Don't you just love the Internet...



There can only be one...

I also take this as certifyable proof that being an English git who wears t-shirts that say, "We be illin'" will get you no-where.

I'm so non-conformist I'll do it

For Timbo...

To the bloke who called Timbo a 'cutting-edge conformist', a while back, I have this:

Boonie

Someone asked me today why we call Luke/Gerald/Siren Head/Ranga/Roopa/Ginger Ninja Boonie?

Dug up this classic for your enjoyment.

From my 18th (under Fed Police surveillance) birthday...



Think the transcript said, "Youth dressed as large cricketer enters premises. Armed with cricket bat.
Middle-aged couple dressed as Bee and Butcher follow through driveway"

The best line of all of course, "Jouvenile seen vomiting on rose bush."

The jury's still out on whether that was Boonie "laying his pitch", or one of my sister's friends.

The beginning of the end...

Decided after last night I'm going to avoid going out for the next few weeks so I can focus on me thesis. Gotta pull a rabbit out of a hat, so I'll see everyone on the 11th of November for Stakes Day if ya can make it... Maybe before then if I really need a study break.

The hard slog begins...

Friday 13th

I have my "last hurrah" boozefest on Thursday night at home, wake up, it's Friday the 13th... Dunno why everyone thinks this day is a bad thing, because after I woke up, had invites to coupla parties, sharemarket went up a percent, and I got a week's extension for honours! Hot damn if I don't like Friday the 13th. I also woke up with a splitting headache, but that was expected. Just trying to steer clear of black cats and ladders until the day is up.

Because of honours might have to give Derby Day a miss then and just go to Stakes Day instead...

Post up some more interesting stuff when I can be arsed...


Apparently I'm not the only one feeling the heat so early in the year too:

Craigo's 21st

Well, had Craigo's 21st out in da country on the weekend. You wouldn't know it but it wasn't actually a fancy dress party. Seeing as it was being held at a golf club, I figured the only thing right to do was come dressed as old-school 1930's style golfers... OJ couldn't have agreed more. $30 down at the local Op-Shop and all was sorted.

The look on Craig's face when we turned up was priceless. Pity the photo doesn't include my incredibly tight old-man golf pants. Damn things were so tight that when we drove to the party had to do so with our flies undone because we couldn't sit down properly. Definately bit of the cut lunch happening. I didn't need to tell you that did I. Sorry, too much info. The golf-club staff were suitably impressed. When I got changed back into normal clothes, almost no-one recognised me. I was like Clark Kent in normal gear. 'Twas a fun night that ended in running down the bar-tab with shots of who-knows-what, and the night started up again at the 'Sporty', the local dive in Waragul.

I must've developed a penchant for tight pants during the party, because when I woke up I wasn't wearing my own pants, some other blokes. He was little. They had been tactfully placed next to mine and grabbed the wrong ones when I got cold at about 5am... well that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it anyway.

Didn't ya Mum tell you not to put on everything you own at once?? Craigo makes use of a few birthday pressies from overseas...


OJ definately looks the part:




Back to hermit thesis mode now...
