Thanks ABC

Thanks for putting Chaser on hiatus. Thanks for the replacement program you gave us. Allow me share an entry from "Australian TV Guide";

Tracey Ullman's State of the Union
Written by and starring Emmy Award-winner Tracey Ullman, State of the Union is a collection of irreverent and hilarious skits that range from sardonic parody and social satire to Bollywood musicals.

I really appreciate the level of thought put into your programming. You showed an American comedy show that failed to make me laugh, smirk or even smile. It looks to me like you've got this all figured out. It seems like you're trying to give Australia a warning. If we as a nation can't enjoy humour that may possibly offend someone, we will end up in a similar situation to America. Comedy that is bland, inoffensive, lowest common denominator crap.

The ABC is trying to make us realise how badly we need the Chaser boys.

I wanted the Black Forest Cake Slice

not the Mud Cake slice. You know who you are.

Hamburgers in Heaven

Recently, the household was subject to a cleanup/throwout session. One particular item flagged for the 'go' pile caught my attention. The RONSON HAMBURGER HEAVEN. Having the external appearance of a sandwich press, but internally having grill sections specifically the size and shape of a hamburger patty. I'm unsure if I was ever aware of it before that day, but something (perhaps from the heavens themselves) called on me to rescue it and put it to use.

This Photobucket slideshow chronicles a utopian lunch gone wrong.

On the matter of drying

Public restrooms, such as those in a restaurant or shopping centre, usually have them present. I am talking about the hand dryer. Here I wish to discuss my opinion on two frequently seen models.

Roache Industries: Terrible. These things wheeze out air. A paltry amount of it. But at what temperature, you ask. They doesn't seem to follow a standard. Sometimes these things get so hot your fingers feel like they're burning, other times they expel a chilling breeze. Neither of these settings seem efficient at actually drying your hands though. On non-automatic versions, a small recessed rectangular button is found. PUSH FOR ONE SECOND. At least one second, because any less and it will not stay on. A very basic looking website claims drying time to be sub 45 seconds. I claim drying time to be sub-standard.

World Dryer: Fantastic. First off, check out their website. These guys know how to innovate, look at the range of drying solutions! I am most familiar with what I believe is the Model A w/Pushbutton Activation (AirMax shown for illustration of pushbutton). This thing blows. It blows hard. It blows warm air. Cycle Time: (30sec). You don't need to wait any longer than 30 seconds to get your hands dry. You shouldn't have to. Look at that button. You can push that thing with any part of your body you have available. Push it once, it just goes. Adjustable nozzle? I'm in heaven. You can aim it directly up and dry your hair on it if need be. This truly is a world-class dryer.

The Wheel Cingulum The Blog

Here is a blog.

Intellective Computer is an ironic celebration of stupidity.
In the absence of forums to post crap on, it will end up here. All signs point to this being terrible.
I'm not a very wordy person like some of us are.
