So I started searching the net today for some bridesmaids dresses. I just wanted to get some ideas. I just wanted to, you know, see what sort of bridesmaids dresses there are out there...
And then I came across this HILARIOUS site. It's called UGLYDRESS.com and it's an archive of the world's ugliest bridesmaid dresses. You HAVE to check it out.
Here's just a taste of the vomit green, plastic pink, poodle puff numbers you'll be exposed to.

It's puffy, it's shapeless and I can just hear the annoying swish the dress would generate with every movement. Plus, it's so shiny I reckon you could vomit on it and everything would just slide right off.

Can you believe someone had to actually wear this? It's so busy and frilly and bowy. And it seems the colour purple was feeling a little sick that day, don't you think?
And now here's one for the gents:

Ahh yes, the classic powder blue tux. I'm sure this was a good look several decades ago but really, in this day and age, no groomsman should be dressed in anything other than a simple, black tuxedo.
To all of you who will be taking part in my bridal party, I promise not to be so cruel.

Sometimes I wonder whether or not all the Aussie politicians ever get together and watch a pirated copy of a movie like Borat. It would certainly explain their sudden inclination towards drinking recycled waste water.
But that's besides the point. The point of this post is to break some good news and some bad news, so here goes.
The good news is that Morris Iemma has today denied rumours that the people of NSW will be forced to drink recyled waste water after the state elections in March if water levels drop any further.
The bad news is for the Queenslanders. Premier Peter Beattie today indicated that they'll be drinking recycled water by the end of next year due to the drought-stricken state they are in.
I must admit, I'm no expert in the field of sewerage water purification and I don't really understand how this process is really going to work but my first thoughts about drinking recycled waste water are not exactly positive.
How can something like that be good for you? Even if it is scientifically proven, science is not always fool-proof. Or am I just an ignorant citizen?
Maybe. But that just means that the government needs to spend some money on educating us about what this water recycling process involves and how water quality can be guaranteed.
I wanna know what I'm drinking and I want quality assurance. Until then, having the choice to say 'yes' or 'no', I would definitely have to decline.
What would you do?

It is currently in pre-production, but reports say that the movie may start shooting as early as next month - It's called Wrong Girl and it's about the controversial Sydney gang rapes that took place in 2000 by brothers Bilal and Mohammed Skaf.
There are those who support the release of such a film because it makes people aware of the issue of rape and furthermore, it makes an example of those who commit the crime.
But there are also those who strongly oppose the film and I believe that their arguments carry more weight.
According to the NSW Rape Crisis Centre the film will only generate traumatic emotions amongst those who are already victims of sexual assault and violence.
NSW police spokesman Mike Gallacher has called the movie a "waste of money" and he's right. News.com.au reports that the filmmakers have already received $51,000 in state and federal funding. That's a lot of money that could be better spent, I think, on educating people at school and in the wider community about the whole issue.
I realise that not everyone may agree with me on this point, but I am of the opinion that anything that makes it to the big screen, regardless of its content, attracts a sense of glamour and I don't think that this horrific occurence should be glamourised or even worse, popularised in any way.
Would you go and see this movie?

If there were an "it" guy in the Aussie Bridal World, it would be none other than Alex Perry. His stunning creations are on every A-listers tongue and it's pretty easy to see why.

Ideally, it would be great to have a wedding planner. Less stress. More time. Sounds good.
But in reality, wedding planners can be very expensive. And at the end of the day, they need your approval for everything anyway, so you end up being quite involved in all the decision making. So why not be your own wedding planner and save a few thousand bucks on the way

And now for another example of why Big Brother sux and Celebrity Big Brother sux even more.
Jade Goody was recently evicted from the UK Big Brother house. Little did she know that when she left her little abode, she would have to face hundreds and thousands of people complaining about her racist attitudes towards fellow Indian housemate, Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty.

Naomi Campbell recently admitted that she chucked a mobile phone in a fit of rage because her employee had lost a pair of her designer jeans. Hey, they weren't just any designer jeans - they were the ones she had specifically chosen to wear for her appearance on the Oprah Winfrey show.
Meanwhile, the mobile phone unintentionally hit employee Ana Scolavino in the head. She needed four stitches and was given a rather hefty medical bill

My Wedding
I went back to Bravo's on the day that it reopened to support the crew. They all clearly miss him a lot. and it's so easy to see why. He just had this genuinely jovial air about him all the time - just thinking about it makes me smile.
Do you know if there are any updates with the court case?
