And the winner is.......

Ok enough is enough, just what is that makes Shane Warne so great? Apart from being able to bowl? He has ABSOLUTELY nothing going for him. He is the personification of the A- typical suburban cricket hoon, all mouth and an ego to match their perceived notion of their own skill level. If he is SMS'ing women here ,there and everywhere and having torrid affairs...Isn't that between his wife and him? Personally, he would've been out the door with his manhood stuffed in his "box" and I would've had the locks changed when the issue first arose...But, hey, that's me!!! This guy has had the cricket world in a frenzy forever, he's not an all rounder and I think there have been better and there will be..He is damaging Australia's reputation and the ACA. HE is the winner of my GRAND WANKER AWARD.

MDA (Medical Defence ????) is back on TV tonight, a great Aussie show about medical law suits and the investigations and the defence team who defend doctors against malpractice suits. It is enthralling and all encompassing...Last years ratings where poor so it may not continue, it has a four part series starting tonight. They have roped in local stars like Sigrid Thornton (god if I could look like her at when I'm her age) to help revive the failing ratings. But Aunty ,you have a good show and with some more promotion, it can and will be great...Look at the cult "Sea change" created. This is the winner of my Best Aussie TV SHOW AWARD.

Now on TV shows, I also watch a Aussie show called "Last Man Standing" on Mondays at 2130. It's like Sex In The City but with guys and set in Melbourne not NY. It's funny and well done but the continuity person has a lot to answer for in Mondays episode...Call it nit picking but it peeved me. In one scene, Adam (complete spunk) enters his work place in a leather jacket, it's raining outside, rain running down the window of the office..His hair is not even wet..But that's not all..He chats with the girl (forgot her name) who he had it off with the night before and she's wearing a halterneck, backless number like it was 39degrees outside...get real guys. On another note, Cam is supposedly landscaping and paving, he's wearing gloves that look like welders gloves, using "brickies sand" instead of a washed sand/cement dust mix and is leveling with a lump of 4by 2 instead of a spirit level!!!!!Now being married to a landscape gardener(no longer on the tools) and a dab hand myself I know that you don't wear gloves to pave as you can't get the bricks/pavers in close enough, I know brickies sand (orange /red) is for concrete and such and that spirit levels come in 1m lengths with smooth edges for just this purpose. Call it picky but a bit of realism please. They was also the gratuitous but ingenious "product placement" they visited a mythical Mega Mitre 10 warehouse in the show, we have Mitre 10 but Bunnings is the king of warehouse hardware places...But in the ad break came ads for the OPENING of TWO MITRE 10 MEGE WAREHOUSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!BRILLIANCE IN STELLAR FORM. Winner of two awards:
1) Stupidity in story line, continuity and realism
2) Excellence in product placement and making zillions in advertising revenue with the story line link

Now to the next award.....The illustrious "I"m with stupid, oh no I am STUPID" I give to past Labour Party leader, Mark Latham. If you are going to be in a party, that's what it is a party...group legislation, assurance on the majority of issues (at least) common goals, etc....You don't go writing a book and kicking the party that fed you in the guts. I have little time for pollies, call it jaded, but saw too much, learnt too much, in too little a time to trust them, their parties or their motives. But I think that if you have the respect and trust of the party you belong to; to the point that they elect you leader of the Opposition...you should honor that respect....Don't ask, don't tell does not apply here...Simply don't tell!!!! He probably had a ghost writer anyway as he was forever being watched by the eagle eyed spin doctors of the party, the guy has the morals of an alley cat and has proven he was never to be trusted. Let Big Kimmy have a go, he might not be a poster boy like Latham but he's got knowledge. So Latham wins the "I'm with Stupid, Oh no, I am STUPID" award.
