Addiction

I have an addiction. I'm not proud of it, but I just can't stop. It first started when I was quite young. A family member introduced me to it and I have never been able to shake it since. The smell, the taste, the feeling it gives me, it has become a part of me. At times I have wanted to get away from it all but without success. Besides there is always that voice from within that encourages me, tells me to never stop. All it takes is one look and I can't turn away. Sometimes I have even given in to my desires at work. So far I have been able to keep it a secret but who knows when I will be discovered. There is always the fear of being found out, the constant looking over my shoulder wondering who is becoming suspicious. The shame if my colleagues, family and friends found out would be too much to withstand. My blog is the only place that I can openly say.... that... I collect stamps.

I saw another amusing fan sign from a member of the crowd from the 3rd Test between India and Australia at Nagpur. This one read...

"If you can read this I am on TV"

Paris, Lleyton, Kim and Delta's Scud Marks



Australian Tennis is in a spin and it's a lot more entertaining than an episode of Neighbours! We all knew it was a bad idea when Delta got together with Mark Philippoussis, we all knew it was an even worse idea for Delta to release a song written about her "relationship" with the Pou. But the questions remains... How come she couldn't see it?

Didn't Delta know The Pou has shagged more supermodels than most people have had hot lunches?

Didn't Delta know that The Pou has gotten through life simply on his natural talent and looks and rarely put any concerted effort into anything?

Lets face it, Delta and The Pou were always doomed. The Pou's lack of class is now even more apparent now that he is sharing his scud marks with world famous skank Paris Hilton.

Lleyton Hewitt is also single again after his fiancee Kim Clijsters dumped him. I do feel sorry for Lleyton, but it has to be said... should people who look so similar really be together?

The only thing left to happen is for Lleyton and Delta to get together! You heard it here first.

I have been immensely enjoying the Foxtel cricket coverage of the India Vs Australia Test Series from India. (I love Foxtel!)
The Indian crowds are fanatical, they chant, scream and yell all day long with no let up. Good on them, I can only commend those who love cricket! However, during my hours of watching the cricket I have noticed that Indian fans create the absolute worst home made supporter signs I have ever seen.

In Australia, we are accustomed to seeing sheets attached to the front of a stand with something painted on it like...
"AUSTRALIA IS TAYLOR MADE TO DECLARE WAUGH!"
Ok, not the wittiest of calls, but at least it makes sense!

Watching the coverage from India I have seen the most ridiculous supporter signs. I have reproduced one here that really made me laugh. It was a sign about Indian fast bowler Irfan Pathan (pictured below) and keep in mind that it was clearly a man holding this sign up. My commentary is in Italics.

P acey (Ok not bad, he is a fast bowler)
A ccurate (fair enough)
T asty (hang on, that's kind of creepy)
H ero (whatever)
A ttractive (I hope you mean his bowling)
N aughty (you weirdo)

Mr Darcy is women's favourite fictional romantic icon. According to a recent poll by the Orange Prize for Fiction, 1900 women across the generations voted for Mr Darcy as the man they would most like to go on a date with.

We all know women rarely know what they want and Mr Darcy is proof of the fact.


Women are always going on about how they want a man who is sensitive, caring and in touch with his feelings, yet these same women are swooning over a fictional character who is the embodiment of the dominant male. Have these women actually watched Pride and Prejudice? Darcy is an absolute wanker!

The sad thing is, they have watched Pride and Prejudice. I guess it makes sense if you are a women.
