It’s just not cricket
I love watching sport. Love horse racing, footy (the code that Queenslanders are good at) and cricket. Though I must admit that cricket almost didn't make my list. I'm sort of falling out of love with cricket. They play too often, the Australian [...]
Ned Kelly, Ben Cousins, drugs and life
So what did you think of the Ben Cousins' Such is Life doco? Just for a bit of background the title came from the large tattoo that Cousins has tattooed across his stomach and ironically were the last words spoken by bushranger Ned Kelly. Now [...]
Ommm, did someone fart?
Someone let go a fart at yoga the other day. In an everyday situation it would probably have gone unnoticed, because it was a discreet, very lady-like fart, except this was a yoga class and we were all very, very quiet, concentrating on our [...]
Family stickers suck
Have you seen those family stickers that people are now decorating their cars with? They've replaced the frangipani but not the private school sticker that says I'm a (insert overpriced private school of choice here) rowing/tennis/tuckshop [...]
Good advice for Jessica Watson
Gosh, haven't we all gone Jessica Watson mad. I hope she doesn't go the way of say a Big Brother contestant. Remember Sarah Marie--all bum dance and bunny ears. We couldn't get enough of her and now where is she. Don't know, don't care. She must [...]

So our federal sports minister Kate Ellis has gone all girly girl and done a photo shoot for Grazia magazine wearing a leather Karen Millen dress and $1800 8 inch Gucci heels. She's only done it to promote positive body image in girls of course, she [...]
Iron Man: A tale of two Tonys
Tony Abbott was in an Iron Man event on the weekend. Of course the government is bitching and whingeing about it saying that he should be making up policy not being all fit and healthy and stuff, but I think it will work out well for Abbott in the [...]
Michael Clarke–What the bloody hell are you doing?
So Michael Clarke has packed up his bat and ball and come home to Australia, in the middle of a tour, to hold Lara Bingle's hand in the aftermath of her shower scene. What a fabulous role model for our cricket team he is proving to be. Let's have a [...]
2010 Winter Olympics: the good, the bad, the ugly and the bloody stupid
Those Winter Olympics are a tough gig. I haven't seen that many people fall over since the last young racegoers day at Eagle Farm racecourse. See we Aussies don't really get the Winter Olympics, mostly because we're not very good (except for [...]
