Guys, we just kind of stopped in Cumby, Texas.

I realised the other day that I can re-visit Yorkeys Knob while I'm in Cairns in a couple of weeks!

That sucks Daniel... Hopefully your assignment will be so awesome they'll let it stand.

Haha, awesome.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

Whoever made that should be proud: they've made the first and only meme John Howard will ever get.

Bluesfest third lineup 2013: "A dream come true"

Bluesfest? More like Pastitgeezersfest AM I RITE?

Hahahaha Status Quo on the line-up, DOWN DOWN CREDIBILITY IS DOWN.

 

[bono_212]

There are some OLD acts on that lineup.

 

[The Sad Punk]

Where is the Blues?

Where is the Blues?

That's what I wondered a few years ago when Crowded House was on the bill.

 

[cobl04]

Are you saying Supertramp isn't blues?

 

[Alisaura]

I almost want to go to that so that if Status Quo play the Coles ad, I can throw broken bottles at them.

 

[Axver]

Throw broken big red hands at them.

 

[Slopsy]

You have no idea how much I want to see them perform Down Down (Prices are Down) with the big red hand instruments. Because I would actually die of laughter/shame on their behalf.

 

[The Sad Punk]

I wouldn't be totally against seeing Supertramp - I kinda love Take The Long Way Home, and The Logical Song has killer nostalgia value.

 

[Alisaura]

I was going to say, Supertramp is actually a bit tempting. I keep meaning to get one/some of their albums.

In other news, I just assembled a chest of drawers, and only had to undo two screws cos I'd got something backwards!

 

[Alisaura]

Throw broken big red hands at them.

There's a mash-up with Nick Cave's "Red Right Hand" in there somewhere...

 

[cobl04]

Latest Newspoll has the TPP at 50/50. Both leaders still unpopular as dogs balls but Abbott more so.

 

[Alisaura]

So it's dog balls vs. rancid dog balls?

 

[cobl04]

Yes. Outrage at Dargo | Gippsland Times

Richard Kingsmill: A Taste of Things To Come by triple_j on SoundCloud - Create, record and share your sounds for free

 

[Alisaura]

I suspect that's the same soundbite that Tom and Alex were playing approximately every 30 seconds on this morning's show... and tormenting Mr Kingsmill with as well. It was funny the first two times...

Bahahaa. At least they were nice and fresh! Does that count as endorsement for Ms Gillard?

Why does it not surprise me that Tom and Alex ruined a joke

 

[Alisaura]

If it's funny once, it must be a million times funnier if you play it a million times, right??

I've never seen or heard any of Tom Ballard's so-called stand-up comedy, and nothing I've heard of his work on the breakfast show would induce me to sample it. I've had funnier sneezes.

 

[cobl04]

So I just tweeted "We don't need a referendum. Just have some balls and change the constitution. Too many idiots in Australia #qanda"

I was being a little facetious but at the same time I think I probably didn't totally know that you had to have a referendum to change the constitution. I got schooled by like three different people and i chose to flat-out lie and claim it was all a big joke, but now I'm all sad and depressed. Can you help me by telling me about a time you said something stupid and got schooled? It's my day off tomorrow and I want to be happy when I walk my dog.

Is it somewhat made up for by the fact that I just convinced AJ Maddah on twitter to let Harvest foundation members go on both Saturday and Sunday?

 

[bono_man2002]

Two weeks to resubmit my assessment and pick one of the articles provided.

Better than nothing.

 

[cobl04]

But still a pain in the arse. Bummer

 

[Vlad n U 2]

I hate how an underwhelming exam can kill my excitement for anything after school finishes for good.

 

[bono_man2002]

In trouble today for incorrectly filling in a timesheet from two weeks ago. Ok fair enough, but it felt like it was an "I do it wrong every second week" thing. My boss said that I wouldn't like it if they stuffed up my pay like I did my timesheet, when in truth in the five and a half years I've worked here they screwed my pay up at least three or four times.

If anyone can think of a non financial reason why I should stay in this job, please do tell me.

Guessing the popular demand wasn't quuuiiiite there for 2x Harvest then?
