Australia Day (better late than never)

How Much Do You Know About Canada, EH ?


Hello to all my Aussie friends, I have a little quiz here to test your knowledge of your sister commonwealth country Canada. You must likely know that we play alot of ice hockey here and we also play our version of football on skates. Our national symbol is the beaver(hot) and most of us live in igloos, we have a lot of snow up here you know.

I know a little about your country like you are really into water sports and kangaroo riding. I know about the sterling record of the ANZACS in both world wars. I also know you are all descended from convicts. Speaking of convicts I know both our countries are unfortunately burdened with the political class of self interested individuals, who just keep in tangling us in red tape. Well any ways take the test and see if you really know whats, what in the great white north. I have a question of my own, according to Canadian slang, do you know what a double, double is? I will inform you latter. The old privytte scored 14 out of 20 on the quiz. Not too bad, but I should do better considering it is my own home sweet home. Well see if you can beat me, and you may receive a Canadian gift in the mail , if it does not melt, going all the way to Australia. Just Give Her, Boyos:

Zombies eat brains

Graaaagh!
Welcome, to the shambling, decaying world of unlife!
As a newly-infected zombie, your raison d'etre is to catch and devour the brains of the living, as clumsily as possible. See if you can trick your closest friends into a horrible skull-crunching death! They'll thank you in the end.

To eat other people's brains, lure them to this website.

If you want to check how many brains you've eaten (we know how hard it can be for a busy zombie to keep track), bookmark

www.brains4zombies.com

Some brains are just naturally better, juicier, and formerly smarter than others, and we've got them here at Brains4Zombies.com. We sell only the highest quality fresh brains, delivered straight to your door. We do the dirty deed so you can spend more time... well... doing whatever the hell it is you zombies do when you're not ripping open people's heads.

Update: Judge rules in favour of Chas

Sutherland Local Court Magistrate Joanne Keogh has found Chas Licciardello not guilty of offensive behaviour.

Read more in today's Sydney Morning Herald.

At least there does to be some people out there with good sense. Now if only the same could be said about the idiots (mostly in the media, but also some of our 'enlightened' politicians) rambling on about the supposed furore Big Day Out organiser Ken West made after allegedly banning Australian flags at this year's Sydney event. What a media beat-up. Read here for SMH reader comments. It's heartening to see some people are not being caught up in the sensationistic attention this issue has received. I was just talking to a good friend who was present when Ken made his comment to the Daily Telegraph, who confirms that this has all resulted from a comment made in a private conversation taken out of context. What a surprise...

Monday 22 January 2007

According to the Sydney Morning Herald, a Sutherland Local Court magistrate will tonight view the unedited footage of a 2006 Chaser stunt, to determine whether highly acclaimed journalist, Chas Licciardello did indeed engage in offensive behaviour.

The old "Hitler Cafe" in Danshui. Long gone now, I kind of wish I'd gone in and found out what kind of "drinks and food" they served and just what, exactly, was in their ovens.


It looks like that Indian cafe wan's the first one to come up with the idea.

Legal News

A real precedence in judiciary has been set in Australian law

 

A seven-year-old boy was at the centre of a Parramatta, NSW courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him.

 

The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulations requiring that family unity be maintained to the degree possible.

 

The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried out that they also beat him.

 

After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him.

 

After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to the English Cricket Team, whom the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating anyone.

The Genius Frosty Hardison

It’s fun but sometimes it’s too easy to dis the world’s only superpower.

 

After a parent who supports the teaching of creationism and opposes sex education complained about the film “An Inconvenient Truth,” the Federal Way School Board in on Tuesday placed what it labelled a moratorium on showing the film.

 

"Condoms don't belong in school, and neither does Al Gore. He's not a schoolteacher," said Frosty Hardison, a parent of seven who also said that he believes the Earth is 14,000 years old.

Joke

Though you might like this one:

 

Billy was at school this morning and the teacher asked all the children what their fathers did for a living. All the typical answers came out, fireman, policeman, salesman, chippy, captain of industry etc, but Billy was being uncharacteristically quiet and so the teacher asked him about his father.

 

"My father is an exotic dancer in a gay club and takes off all his clothes in front of other men. Sometimes if the offer is really good, he'll go out with a man, rent a cheap hotel room and let them sleep with him."

The teacher quickly set the other children some work and took little Billy aside to ask him if that was really true.

 

"No" said Billy, "He plays cricket for England but I was just too embarrassed to say.

 

Boom-tish!

The most famous toilet in Rock'n'Roll - inducing instant constipation in clubgoers for decades.

CBGB, New York City, July 2006.

CBGBs closed October 31 and relocating to Las Vegas, where they'll reopen in 2008. The owner plans to reconstruct the stage and the ambiance, and promises to bring the urinals and the toilets with him. It's not fixtures, though, that make this toilet so notorious - it's the feng shui. It's the elevated crapper lording over the peasants at the urinals. Some question whether CBGBs will be able to recreate their scene in a new city. If they can construct a bathroom that makes you feel just as uncomfortable as this one, than the answer is yes.

The Cult - She Sells Sanctuary

The not so Sudden Death of The Cult

The Cult was an awesome band from back in the 80’s and early nineties.  They had at least two huge international hits with She Sells Sanctuary and Love Removal Machine

 

They died a slow death as a band through the first half of the nineties, which was a shame as they were getting huge in the US at the time.  Whatever, they probably made millions anyway.

 

Read about the band here

This photo was taken from the Urban Legends Reference Page.

According to popular thought, if a guy pisses on an electic fence he risks getting his pee-pee fried. This photo has been circulating the e-waves to show just watch can happen if one takes to relieving himself in such an electrifying manner.

Icky, huh.


However, urban myth debunkers Snopes ascribe the photo to some poor dude with a severe case of herpes who went to a doctor for treatment, which ended up being rather excessive and burnt his member like a snag on a good ol' Aussie barbie (ugh, thanks to my ill-conceived analogy sausage sangas will never be the same again).

Who's hungry?

I remember seeing something similar on an early episode of Mythbusters, where the notion that a guy could get electrocuted from peeing on the third rail of a train track. I reckon the story would be more interesting if they'd tested a chick squatting over the track, but I'm kinda weird that way....

Mythbusters also later tested the Brown Note theory (word up Old Man Brown), popularised on South Park, where apparently some subsonic frequencies can cause human beings to crap themselves. The theory was tested in an empty parking lot, using 24 specially-modified speakers. Hmm, smelly. From memory, it didn’t work.
