Clip o’ The Day: Maradona tells Argentinean journos to “Suck it… and keep on sucking”.

It’s good to see they guy beat the Charlie.

I wonder if there’s an Australian equivalent for a supremely talented sportsman who became internationally infamous for (allegedly) cheating, moved to Cuba and buddied up to Fidel Castro, got a huge Coke binge going, put on about a tonne of weight, then became Coach of the national football team… hmmm… i guess not.

Ole! Ole Ole Ole!

Seth Rogan + Simon Baker = ?

Seth Rogan, and Simon Baker, do you see the similarity? Well, neither do I.

I guess they are both blonde(ish), and they both wear glasses, and they both appear on a screen (big or small). Why the buggery am I talking about this? Well…

During the course of my day job (which is in fact a night job, flipping pizzas), I get the odd comment about who I resemble, usually from elderly overweight Italian ladies, but once in a while from stunning young things, that must be having a laugh. At any rate, for three years I have resembled but one person:  Seth Rogan, star of such stoner films as “Pineapple Express” and “KungFu Panda”. Now I take that with a grain of salt, because Seth Rogan is quite the funny lad, and I don’t want to offend the Italian ladies that, for some reason, are familiar with the portfolio of Seth Rogan.

However…

Tonight, a particularly stunning young thing said that I look a lot like Simon Baker,  star of such shows of “The Mentalist” and “Heartbreak High”. Which I took with a grain of salt also, because, while he doesn’t seem to be funny in any way, he does appear to be lusted over by stunning young things.

At any rate…

I thought it would be interesting for those of you who don’t know what I look like, to have some sort of idea, so here it is… combine Seth Rogan with Simon Baker and you have it. You have to use your imagination, but is really is quite accurate.

Clip o’ The Day: Slim Thug Feels the Recession

With all these newfangled ’special’ channels, you’d think some bright spark would try and get the Daily Show. But apparently, Australian TV execs are all about rehashing bullshit, racist, monstrously unfunny Hey Hey Its Saturday episodes… fuckin’ blackface???

Its 2009, even Harry Connick Jnr knows better than that… Harry. Connick. Jnr.

$1784 billion trillion

A chap in New York, apparently grossly dissatisfied with the outcome of his call to Bank of America’s call centre, has taken the fat-cats to court, demanding that they deposit $1784 billion trillion dollars into his bank account by the next day, as well as $200,164,000 for other expenses that he might incur.

When he phoned the call centre, he got a “Spanish woman” on the line, who had difficulty understanding his brand of English, and apparently misunderstood some numbers for cheques he was depositing. Dalton Chiscolm decided that this was not good enough and sued the bastards.

I can sympathise with the man, I have had problems with my phone provider, and demanded that they reimburse me for wasting my time. I got $300… probably should have asked for a bit more really.

The clever thinking by people in the know is that Mr Chiscolm is unlikely to get his payout as it is a little over the top. Actually it is $60 trillion dollars more than the worlds gross domestic product of 2008.

According to the good people at ABC (Australia) the figure would look something like this:

$17,840,000,000,000,000,000,000

US District Judge Denny Chin has claimed the amount “incomprehensible” and has given the man a month to better explain why he should be given it.

Red Wednesday

sydneydust1

A normal day would see around 10 micrograms of particles per cubic metre of air (pcma) and a bushfire might generate 500 micrograms.

sydneydust2

Levels in Sydney yesterday peaked at 15,400 micrograms (pcma).

Poor old Sydney, they just couldn’t handle Melbourne getting all the natural disaster/freak occurrence attention this year.
