July 2nd 2009 23:13

Bubbles - preparing to tell all . . .
Word this morning that Michael Jackson's personal 80's confidante - Bubbles The Chimp is being wooed to realease a 'tell all' book on the fallen star.

Tentively titled: Pay Peanuts Get Michael, the book has already allegedly attracted the attention of at least three major US pubishers - each waving sizable cheque books around the enclosure at the centre for retired and terminally recluses primates

Big Girls We Love

Call them 'curvy'. Call them Rubinesque. Call them BBW - but in a sea of skeletal socialites - these gals are the lifebuoys we hang on to in the hope that sensibility will once again reign among the masses.

Yes - big girls. Perhpas not the most politically correct of terms - but are thin girls offended when we label them in the same way

Is This The Most Annoying Song Ever?

June 30th 2009 22:49
Granted there are scores of tunes out there that infuriate.

Whether it's something by Michael Bolton or 'anything' by Celine Dion - the cream of the most annoying 'hits' always appear to rise to the top of just about any list you'd care to check out

Who Is Your Favourite 'Friends' character?

June 29th 2009 08:09
Friends
When talk turns to "Friends" two things are for sure and certain - you're either a fan or conversation has lagged - but at least you're definitely with a group of 'friends'.

So it is with some sobriety that I admit that the topic did come up over the weekend on who was our favourite "Friends" character

70's Love Classics

June 24th 2009 08:39
Love Songs
The 70s was a high point in the world of music - for some.

And despite disco being at its peak classic love songs also flourished. In fact I wouldn't be far off the mark by stating that some of the best love songs of all times were written during this time

Things Americans Don't Understand About Us

June 18th 2009 08:40
US
I'm not one to throw stones too often - and I can sense the glass walls about to cave in on me - but there's so much that our cousins across the other side of the Pacific just don't seem to get about us.

OK - so we both supposedly speak the same language - but ask for a 'torch' or even something as mundane as 'cordial' in a convenience store or expect there to be beetroot on your hamburger and the sideways glances are akin to you speaking an entirely different dialect altogether

June 16th 2009 23:28
It's mid year - and already 99% of us have forgotten any New Year's Resolutions we may have even contemplated.

Hotline to the Dead

Ghosts
I heard a mystic//psychic – call them what you will on the radio over the weekend – claiming to be able to talk with the those lost souls who had travelled to ‘the other side’.

It was all a air-fairy – and other than ‘you were close to your father//mother (for heavens sake if you weren’t you wouldn’t call would you) – and the obligatory – ‘she is telling me something that I can’t quite work out’ (insert letter, name, number or object here) there were of course no specifics – only vague – lead me type answers

Drinking Games

June 12th 2009 06:15
There's this bar I know - nothing fancy, but it's been a favourite watering hole for a group of us for as long as I can remember.

Want to know which one? Sorry - but that one I'm keeping to myself - ya see it's a little like aladins cave - where you're guarded about who you tell - for fear of losing the magic
