The big Forgy

February 21st 2011 10:21
I’m no relationship consultant but its fairly obvious from the personal tone of NAB’s recent bust up announcement the big four had rather unethically been mixing banking with pleasure. This complicated love quadrangle could best be described as a “forgy.” Suffice to say we’ll never know if fees and charges applied.
But hey, it’s a free world so who am I to judge them even if in corporate sexual governance terms they make David (there’s no sexual harassment case like David Jones) McInnes look like a choirboy. Though I must admit I am curious as to who exactly was the meat in this rather chunky beef and pickle sandwich.
Fortunately, the fun isn’t over yet with ex f. buddy CBA sniping back at NAB in full page spreads about the size of its deposits liquidity margins. Hopefully this all serves as a warning to credit unions and other lending institutes of the dangers of getting in bed with your competitors.

Disastertainment

February 8th 2011 09:13
“Disastertainment” is the term I’ve dubbed our interest in the QLD floods, trapped Chilean miners and the like. How else to describe Mel and Kochie on “Floodrise” beaming live from the lapping shores of flood hit precincts or the Today’s show’s non stop coverage of the disaster. I get the feeling when the networks heard about Yasi they yelled it as excitedly as if they had won a round of Yahtzee.
Fair enough our intrepid TV reporters have packed their safari suits or at least Ralph Lauren’s summer collection and trekked up North to bring us the exclusive. But why is it every second one has to do the head and shoulder shot which subsequently pans out to show them standing ankle or knee deep in water- very original. The crews spend so much time in relief centres people who really need them must feel like they’ve stumbled into Big Brother.
Within this media circus Anna Bligh is a standout performer, inevitably backed by one or more stoic faced public servants (Man at arms to Anna’s He-man) or a prime minister light on in the charisma dept as Anna tells it like it is i.e. not like a politician. A signing expert usually accompanies her and is obviously quite essential in a crisis situation to communicate the silent language. Perhaps Kristina Kennelly, who regularly has to weather shit-storms and crisis of her parties own making could take note and enlist the aid of a signer when she comes out to face the media.
Once the waters subside I get the feeling the networks won’t be in any hurry to let go of all that empathy they’ve managed to build on the back of this crisis. There’s probably a whole series of Backyard Blitz Brissy about to pop up. I lost count of the number of stories the channels posted in relation to Brissy restaurants losing everything and going under in the deluge so thinking like a TV exec its fair to say the contestants are ready. I’m guessing they could do a cook off styled cooking show giving restauranters effected by the crisis the chance to get their eateries back. This may sound far fetched but a few years ago I jokingly made the prediction that crime and cooking are both so popular on TV they would be combined in some fashion. Seven now has “Conviction Kitchen “assaulting our small screens.

127 hours part 2 dick crush

February 5th 2011 08:14
I caught an advanced screening of this epic based on a true story and must admit it rocks like an avalanche on a big toe ARGGHHHH!
The sequel picks up with our hero played this time by Tom Hanks returning to the canyons to indulge his passion for rock climbing only for the same fate to befall him again. This time its his dick which gets stuck "balls deep" between two boulders.
Vince Vaughn doesn't know what a Dilemma is, this is the real deal. I don't want to give the story away other than to say by movies end our canyoner talks in falsetto and at least for a while has a dick shaped like a pancake.
The premise of this movie is strong and there's enough spare body parts for many enjoyable sequels to follow.

Total eclipse of the arse

February 4th 2011 10:50
Seven’s summer of tennis recently got way too big and personal courtesy of an unfortunate gust of wind which lifted Venus William’s latticed fluoro yellow mini skyward as she crouched- waiting to return serve. Of course the camera shot was right behind. It was like an eclipse as Venus’s butt wrapped in flesh tone tights obliterated the screen and the rest of humanity for seconds at most but felt like aeons. Way too much information- it should have been pixellated.
Sure this sounds old fashioned but whatever happened to bloomers or at least some more sensible attire? For that matter I actually prefer the simplicity of yesteryears cool whites rather than the gauche modern take on the wardrobe which looks like a rainbow vomited on centre court. A lot of the outfits just look plain silly- one lady had so many ruffles on her cocktail style dress it reminded me of a frilly bog roll cover. Williams said her latticed creation was inspired by Lewis Carrols character Alice. I must have missed the chapter where Alice dons a miniskirt then partied in a cheese grater. Either way its like one long disastrous centre court fashion parade- every player trying to outdo each other in the tennis rock star look at me stakes.
I also take issue with the brightness of William’s and others apparel- the same colour as a tennis ball. Is tennis ball lime green/ yellow in this season? I doubt it. I suspect these clothes are deliberately worn as some sort of unsporting distraction to their opponents who have milliseconds to figure out where the ball has been hit

The Fighter- Boogie Nights 2

February 3rd 2011 11:57
The sequel to Boogie nights sees Marky Mark back in action swinging his dong in what can only be described as "cock fighting" meets Coyote Wild. Definite Academy award material with a support cast that includes "The Batman" and Arthur (maybe).

Sometimes je ne sais quos doesn’t cover it. Here’s a couple of my big regrets. Hopefully its as cathartic for you as it is for me.
REGRET 1- Backing over a pram. You think I just backed over the pram and mom had the baby all safe and sound next to her bosom right? Wrong- baby in the pram, me back over the pram in 20 tonne car, babypram hawk down. Fortunately I’m not in jail on babyslaughter, the kid was okay, no crush injuries or tyre marks just a backing out pram bump really but the pram did go somersaulting over when I hit it. I’ll never forget how sick it made me feel when I saw the blur of it go down in the rearview. These things can happen when a sudden gust of wind catches a mum unawares and she’s putting the shopping into a car next to yours. Lesson learned: watch for speed bumps.
REGRET 2- Benchpressing beyond ones capability. Sounds nasty right? Yep. In my adolescence I may not have looked like Arnold but I certainly tried and could lift some decent poundage, big plates stacked to max capacity so I could rep out and get that burn the muscle mags told me would result in MASSIVE GAINS!! Muscle mags love exclamation marks because they’re like grammar on steroids

The American- or is that the Americano?

November 21st 2010 12:32
Not to be confused with the full bodied beverage known as the Americano, the American showcases Clooneys ability to look good running around in an open neck suit. It got me wondering how come he's always in an open neck suit when things go bad. Why not a pair of daggy shorts, trackies and an old singlet he likes to sleep in. But that's just personal gripes. Clooney here is brilliant as the creator of facebook. Usually I can't stand films about computers- total nerd territory but Clooney's open neck suit saves the day as he hacks into the user account of all the hotties in the pentagon and rates their "arsenal of weapons". I'm still hping they make a movie about ER and Clooney steps in.

Avatar - Revenge of the Smurf

February 12th 2010 23:48
James Cameron's epic sequel to Titanic sees Jack and Rose emerge as smurf like creatures made of blue vein cheese in a galaxay far far awayyyyyyyyyyyy.
"I'm the king of the Smurfs" De Caprio is heard to scream from the bough of his spaceship at the movies zenith.
The plot is complex and in many ways reflects real life politics. The evil Gargamel is once again up to no good as he attempts to smash the eco bunny society to which Jack and Rose now act as solar panels for- their ability to generate rebates from the government supports the smurf ecosystem. Brad Pitt takes a star turn as Papa Smurf.
