I’d only glimpsed Temptation by accident at the gym. To this fella’s highly-trained gameshow eye, it seems there’s been more of a thunderously violent overthrow of Sale of the Century’s format than first meets the eye.
On Monday night, I didn’t see three highly intelligent contestants who looked like their idea of wild achievement was a […]

When the night progresses to you pashing chicks or groping boobs, it’s time to stop drinking (and I don’t utter that phrase very often at all).

My weekday begins any time between 5am and 6am - I like to get to work early, get everything over and done with, then zip back home and have plenty of time to myself in the afternoon. An added benefit of this is that the daily commute becomes the daily “….whaaaa, I just woke up, […]

This week left me left gasping in dismay after learning that our yuppie neighbours actually own their David Jones display home apartment. I can no longer desperately cling to the thin hope that they’ll eventually move out. There’s no longer a distant promise to an end of erupting laughter to constant viewings of Friends repeats, […]

Okay, this has gone far enough. When even one of my favourite artists starts sampling songs which are already proven hits/cult classics, and releasing them as singles, it gives me the shits.
As this decade progresses, there’s been a rise in covering songs for commercial exposure, which have already been proven hits. What shits me is […]

Predictably, certain areas of my body still feel like they’re part of some neverending hydroclauric acid fondue party. To counter this, I’ve been watching some embarassing DVD purchases I’d care not to mention, such as Buffy, Babylon 5, a few DVDs to keep my mind off things.
Incredibly, I’ve now succesfully managed to somehow do my […]

Well, unfortunately I’ve now depleted my supply of post-operation painkillers, and came crashing down to earth around eight hours ago. Before the operation, I was bitter that I’d be forced to lay off the alcohol for a while, but these happy pills kept me in a constant state of happy beer buzz.
My hospital was […]

Ah, it’s almost that time of year again, when we all pretend that we truly understand standard depreciation: time to file your taxes. Or, if you’re Adam, mutter “Ohh, mmm, I’ll do them tomorrow” for 365 more consecutive days in a row.
One of these years, I’ll actually visit an accountant, rather than fudging my own […]

Swigging bourbon straight from the bottle, watching footy on Foxtel (while I wear a Cats guernsey and pump my fist in the air), with my fella sleeping upstairs… how much better does it get?
(Answer: not much, when you’re due for an awful operation in four days)

We took a deep breath and descended deep into Sutherland Shire over the weekend, for a Saturday in Cronulla. Looks like we picked a good day to do it - not too hot, so it wasn’t too crowded around the beaches.
While strolling along the Esplanade which overlooks the beaches of Cronulla, I couldn’t help […]
