DOWNTON ABBEY:
I keep hearing about ‘Dowton Abbey’, so i got the dvd out last night, basically it’s about rich assholes, the class system, servants who treat each other like shit, and the only gay is a repulsive turd. After fifteen minutes all i could think was ‘I hope this fucking place burns down!’.
I did like the gentlemens crisp suits, and i liked watching the valets dress them, and i liked watching the valets brush the dust off the mens coats, and i really liked watching the valets take off the mens riding boots, but i’m not sure that’s a basis for watching an entire series.
Should i stick with it?

BIRTHDAY TERRORISM!:
An anonymous letter was sent to me on my birthday, with nothing more than a flyer for my arch nemesis Tim Freedman enclosed, and equally as filthy and offensive, they have used a John Farnham stamp!!, this is worse than receiving a bowel movement in the mail!.

DRUGS IN SPORT:
ABOVE: Keith Richards v’s Lance Armstrong, no competition.
Today has been labeled the “Blackest day” day in Australian sporting history?, really?, drugs?, not the hardcore racism?, the back slapping homophobia?, that whacky old game of ‘Lets shit in a hotel corridor’?. Oh yeh, how could i forget the wholesale sexual assault of numerous women (and thinking about it, probably the sodomising of men).
The only answer to this is to level the playing field, and make drugs in sport manditory. The Tour de France would be AMAZING if every rider was on five grams of speed. Imagine how hot the AFL would be, if each player was injected with pure MDMA/Ecstasy before the match, by the first quarter it would be an on field orgy .. now THAT i would pay to watch.

A WORD:
And through all the tears and the sadness and the pain, comes the one thought that can make me internally smile again, I have loved.

Family ties.
It’s a total pisser to me that huge amount of my family now lives in Queensland, but thankfully we have all stayed close. I was flicking through a photo album the other day, and found this photo of Adam and i, taken with my niece Michelle last year. The photo next to it showed me with my sister, as well as Michelle and her two sisters Kylie and Danielle in the surf at Mollymook, when we were just little kids. Whats with all this reflection lately with me?, pulling my old notice board to pieces, finding old photographs, throwing out a heap of old stuff i once clung to, am i De-nesting?.
PIC 1: I was lucky enough to have a lot of my nieces and nephews born soon after me so the bonus is that they are all more like brothers and sisters to me than nieces and nephews, i was only seven when my third niece was born!
PIC 2: Me, my big sister, and three nieces in the surf at Mollymook. Every summer the whole family, inc aunts, uncles, cousins etc would decend, en masse to Burill Lake on the south coast. Unless it was pissing down with rain, we would spend pretty much every day at the beach, not just one, but a whole array of beaches. I’m not exagerating when i say that, each day we spent hours swimming, and surfing on our Merrin surf mats. As soon as we got to the beach we would race in, and only come out every now and then for a drink, and lunch, which i remember as vegemite sandwiches, and orange Minor orange juice in a foam insulated drinks container. As soon as the food had settled in our bellies, we’d race off back into the water for another couple of hours. When i look at these old photo’s, i can’t believe how skinny i was, it must have been because of all the time we spent in the surf. Maybe i need to get myself a surf mat again.
