A tribute to Bobby Flynn – Australia’s Greatest Idol

Thursday, October 19th, 2006

His name is Bobby Flynn, and he has revolutionised the world of Australian Idol.
His performance of the Rick James classic ‘Superfreak’ was inspiring, and his dance moves scintillating. In a series in which bland mediocrity is taking over, Bobby was the freak beacon we needed. Yeah sure, the dude looks a little strange, and his [...]

Pidgeon droppings the secret to hair growth?

Thursday, October 19th, 2006

“Hairloss Treatments used to be realm of the shaman and the medicine man. In Ancient Egypt they devoted entire temples to the business of growing hair where they would burn special �hair growth incense� and apply a salve of pigeon droppings onto the head of the prospective hairloss patient.”
I have a question, did the pidgeon [...]

Angelina Jolie and the tiger tattoo picture that freaks me out

Thursday, October 19th, 2006

Angelina Jolie has a lot of tattoos. Yup, a lot. She’s got dragon’s, poems, and religious tattoos. Angelina Jolie is hot. Yup, hot. But one image of her I can’t get out of my head, is the one of her getting a tattoo done by a Thai tattoo artist in the traditional style. It looks [...]

Matt Lucas on Enough Rope

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

I saw the Matt Lucas and David Walliams interview on ‘Enough Rope with Andrew Denton’ on Monday night. If your don’t know who they are, they are the stars of the TV series ‘Little Britain’. I knew that Matt Lucas was bald but what I didn’t realise until Monday was that he is without eyebrows [...]

Fashion News Flash – Fascinators are out!

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

The Spring Racing Carnival has started for another year. What does this mean for the average punter? An influx of fine looking ladies heading out to the race track all dressed up. There’s been a lot of talk about fashion in the past few weeks, but the big story is the ‘fascinator’. I never actually [...]

Brand reputation

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

As we may have established a long time ago, I’m a bit of a geek. That’s why I find the latest online PR/Marketing trends interesting. Brand name and reputation have always been an important part of building a business. Once a company has built up a good name and respected reputation, the challenge then becomes [...]

Motorshow mayhem and Tom Cruise opening a car door

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

With the Australian International Motorshow gearing up, the Paris Motorshow (which began on the 30 September), probably gives us the best indication of the sorts of things we’ll be seeing in Sydney.
One of the big cars to hit Sydney, following it’s debut in Paris, is the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione. As with most of the [...]

Cars on parade

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

The Australian International Motorshow (AIM) is coming up shortly. The one thing I love about the motorshow is all the concept and exotic car pictures that get released around this time. These are the sort of cars I will never own, but will always drool over. I mean, who wouldn’t want an V12 Aston Martin Vanquish?
Some [...]

I want a pug!

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

Men In Black 2 was a truly crap movie. It did have one redeeming feature though. Frank the talking pug. Ever since I’ve seen the movie, I’ve wanted a pug. Pugs are the coolest looking dogs in the world, and the fact that they can speak english (as seen in MIB2) just makes them even [...]

More celebrity surgery?

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

Inspired by Shock Docs, I’ve been having a quick squiz at this plastic surgery blog. There’s a wealth of material on there. If you interested in man boobs and whether or not Britney Spears has had a tummy tuck then this is your site! Besides all the plastic surgery news on that blog, the thing [...]

Jessica Simpson – has she or hasn’t she?

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

If you’ve seen the Dukes of Hazzard movie that came out a year or two back, you will have discovered (as I did), that it is a significantly more enjoyable film if you turn the sound down and skip through to all the scenes featuring Jessica Simpson. The same could be said for her music [...]
