    The Worst Place On Earth You've Been To

    What place in the world have you visited and couldn't get out of there quick enough? For me, Surabaya on the east coast of Java in 1981. After travelling from Gilimanuk in West Bali by ferry, I decided to check this shithole out. At the port of Surabaya, I was "greeted" by hundreds of children...

    Stupid Sports

    I was prompted to say something after the inclusion of breakdancing in the 2024 Paris Olympics. Yes.... f**king breakdancing! I thought things were looking good when IOC shafted synchronised swimming but they replaced it with this shit. So what do the 2028 Los Angeles games have in store for...

    Dreams

    I expect most people have dreams but I don't really know. I have what is best described as dream cycles where I dream up to five times a night for a week or so then none for the next week or so. My dreams are like mini movies, I'm not aware of how long they go for in real time but it feels like...

    The Best Male Actors Of The Last 50 Years

    No TV shows, just movies. This is an opinion piece as you can't quantify an actor's performances. It doesn't matter if someone has won six Oscars or made over 150 movies. Here are mine, in no particular order. TOP THREE Anthony Hopkins Jack Nicholson Sean Connery NEXT BEST Michael Caine...

    MKR

    Don't get me wrong, but I'm not a fan of reality shows by any means. I only watch occassionally for interesting recipes. But. What shits me is the way the judges and other contestants pick up the plate or bowl and wave it under their noses like a meal of dog shit. Totally disgusting and...

    Eating Habits

    Do you eat because you're hungry or because the clock tells you to? Fair enough, the huge majority of workplaces have set meal breaks but what do you do away from work? As I'm retired, workplace meal times no longer apply.... thankfully. I eat at any time. On the home front, there's no such...

    Charities

    Do you trust them? Why do some CEOs of these"not for profit" organisations get a salary in excess of 1 million AUD? WWF, Red Cross and Amnesty International to name a few. Source: IRS Form 990 and glassdoor.com. These organisations procure individuals, usually backpackers, to pester shoppers...

    Who the hell is Amber Heard?

    Supposedly an actress. Went through her "filmography" the other day and only vaguely recognised two of the movies in the list. Nothing but a head on a stick.

    Bizarre Emails, SMSs and Phone Calls.

    Over the past few weeks I've received an increasing number of strange shit on my phone. Allegedly from "organisations" such as Amazon, Westpac, ANZ, Bendigo Bank, Coles to name a few. I don't have any accounts with these fakes. Saying I've got a delivery pending or an account balance of $XXX...

    Iconic Movies You Have Never Watched

    For mine it's The Castle. Just never seemed to be something I'd enjoy. Maybe not iconic but I've never watched a Harry Potter movie. Same goes for Lord of the Rings. Fire away.

    A Very Hard Question.

    Just watched a French movie on SBS World Movies called Curiosa. The song by the same name is featured in the end credits and performed by someone called Arnaud Rebotini. It is a remake of a song from the 1980s or 90s. Just an instrumental electronica piece but my brain can't recall the original...

    What Did You Just Watch?

    A doco about Poly Styrene, the singer from the punk band X Ray Spex on NITV. I'm still crying from the memories.

    Geez I Love This Place!

    LU that is. I was introduced to LU by a friend of mine about four years ago who copped a lifetime ban I think. Been scoping the site out ever since. just seeing how it operates. Too bad guests can't access The Fight Club and 4C. Quality dudes in here including Horrie, Generalzod, Bandy...

    Favourite (or best) Sports Shoes

    1. ASICS by a country mile. I bought my first pair in 1980 from the Brooks warehouse for $8 under the Tiger brand. Lasted for over 10 years. Bought numerous pairs of their touch footy shoes over the years. In 2010, I got a pair of ASICS Gel Impression which are still going strong except the...

    Movie Closing Credits

    Whatever happened to them? I don't know about Netflix, etc, but on FTA they have all but disappeared. When there are credits, they scroll so fast as to render them unreadable. SBS is the exception. Why do FTA channels have an allergy to credits? A lot of times, I'd like to know the actor in a...
