The Tale of Burley

Posted by badger | Filed under: News

As you may or may not know, last weeks Freo game against the Bwissie Lions was the Paterson's Guide Dog Game.

Anyway, they had a competition to name three puppies, and I was one of the lucky winners: I suggested the name “Burley” for Luke McPharlin's puppy. It's a long story, but basically the name came to me in a dream, so I am some kind of crazy soothsaying psychic.

So, Lou and I got to go to a corporate function before the game, have an excellent lunch, tank up on free booze, and generally run amok with the VIPs.

Then we got ushered down to the oval at about 1.45 for a puppy presentation and a quick interview with that uber-hack Orion from 92.9.

Standing on the oval was a very bizarre and surreal experience. Not something you get to do every day. Luckily we had my dad's digicam, so we were able to document the moment for your enjoyment.

If you are lucky you will be able to check our photos here.

(If the interweb decides that it won't let you see the pics, I will sort something out next week.)

Oh yeah, and the Dockers crushed the Lions like BUGS. All in all a pretty mintox day.

Birthday Wishes For Fancy Dave

Posted by badger | Filed under: News

Dearest Fancy Dave

We thought that on this auspicious occasion, we would express our feelings through the medium of a poem written by John Lillison, England's greatest one-armed poet:

The Pointy Birds
O pointy birds, o pointy pointy,
Anoint my head, anointy nointy.

For a beautiful webpage rendition of this wondrous poem please visit this page.

But perhaps Lillison's only other surviving work also has some relevance on this important day:

In Dillman's Grove
In Dillman's Grove my love did die,
And now in ground shall ever lie.
None could ever replace her visage,
Until your face brought thoughts of kissage.

Much love to you on your thirtieth birthday (May 23rd)

Kael and Lou

50 Greatest Album Covers? Give me a break…

Posted by badger | Filed under: News

Here's the List compiled by the morons at VH1.

This has to be the biggest load of horseshit I have ever seen. Most of these album covers are total trash, or just mind-numbingly boring.

I have no idea how they compiled this list but I'd say Stevie Wonder was on the judging panel.

Let's take a case in point: Tupac's All Eyez On Me

tupac

Now come on. It's just a freaking photo of Tupac. Where's the genius in that? And it's spelt “eyes” you semi-literate dead hack.

As for that retarded cartoon cover for Snoop's Doggystyle being in the top ten… well, let's just say “great album, shit cover.”
