I'm off for a swim as its very hot. Also this may be my last bolg for 2000 so here's my new years message;

Just remember that when celebrating New Years, no one likes the smell of vomit, girls don't enjoy being groeped by drunk men and there is nothing you can do with a mailbox once you steal it.

Have a fun and safe New Year.

Rang my friend at work

Rang my friend at work yesterday and had to pretend to be his brother just so I could contact him. And just before he was handed the phone he was told no persoanl calls?!?

No, he doesn't work at a Nazi weapons factory from 1940's or a Nike shoe factory, he works at McDonalds of which comparisons can be drawn.

1: Shitty pay
2: No benefits
3: Motto's: Nike "Ignorence is bliss" & McDonalds: "Get them young, fuck them young"
4: Poor product, mass appeal
5: Exploits people, while making billions
6: Sponsors everything from sport to hospitals
7: Has a logo that is more recognisable than the christian cross

Mmmm got a bit carried away and off topic.
For Australia's largest employer of casual staff I feel they should treat their staff with a bit more respect than that.

Public Service Announcement: Ladies looking

Public Service Announcement:

Ladies looking for love in Gold Coast?

My mate Danny is looking for that special lady. His last girlfriend deflated in a horrific puncture accident and he is now ready to move on.

He's 23, a pilot for Qantas, which means duty free booze all year round, has an extensive porn collection, can cook over 5 different micowave meals and is also looking for someone special to spend the nights with.

Email me on Ghandi@start.com.au and I'll foward on the email to him

No need to thank me Danny :)

Well here I am in the wonderful Gold Coast. The place where I spent most my adolecent life. Well 14 years of it.

I just wish my licence hadn't expired as the public transport here is the worst. Thanks mum for the lift to Pac Fair.

It's also amazing how little has changed and how many people still have the same jobs 3 years after I left for Sydney. Amazing but also sad. A few marriges and a few babies thats about it.

Oh, and if you are reading this "Will Blackie" then thanks for saying hi. I thought we were mates. Sorry I didn't move up the coolness ladder with you, but there's no need for the cold shoulder. I hope Massive Auctions looks after you buddy :)

As for the weather it's 30+ everyday, much like Sydney, but at least here you can go for a swim without having to take a train.

What sound does a dog

What sound does a dog make??

What sound does a rooster make??

These are standard questions but you will get drastically different answers depending on who you ask. And the main factor for the differences is the country they grew up in.

I always thought that "Cock-a-doodle-doo" was universal but it seems to be only for english speaking people. So next time you meet someone from another country ask them a simple question like this and have fun learning about another culture.

A rooster in Indonesian, i will sound it out, is:- crooke-koo-die-ou (well that's pretty rough)
I came about this while listening to Old McDonald had a farm in Indonesian.

Sydney has its fair share

Sydney has its fair share of Mormans and there is nothing more exciting than making in through Chatswood Morman free. But you have to wonder about all those guys away from family and friends and the fact it'd be pretty boring in a Morman dorm. Mabye the fact they seem so uptight is the fact they have been following this piece of literature on Morman masturbation (two words you don't wanna see together)

Mabye we should all pitch in and buy them some porno's and a packet of wet-ones and mabye they'll loosen up??

I have never visited New York but by looking at the hundreds of photos this New York cabbie has taken, over a 10 year period, I feel I know the place inside out. Filled with interesting B/W photos of the people, buildings and life style of New York City. It would make a great gift for people interested in photography or fly on the wall books.

Don't worry I will not profit from any sales on Amazon.

If there is anything that I hate more than people that will not give to charities, it's people that stop other people from giving to charities.

At Coles (a large supermarket chain in Australia) they have bins (big boxes with Salvation Army written on them) where you put non-perishables in for needy people. Stuff like muesili bars, tin food, biscutes etc etc.

Well I don't mind buying a few extra good when I shop and put them in this bin but it's hard to do that when the bin is full of rubbish. Half eaten ice creams, empty drink cans and stuff like that ruin all the goods in the bin and thus ruining the goods in the bin.

Just makes me angry and sad at the same time.
