| bizarro world | July 1, 2009 | Here’s part of an email I received today: Hi Wendy, My name is (“name removed for privacy reasons”) and I am a producer at TODAY – WEEKEND EDITION with the Nine Network.

| What’s the difference between garlic and academia | June 29, 2009 | Nothing. At last my Refractory paper appears. It’s been almost two years since I sent the initial abstract. I am worried now that it’s a whole heap of crapola that I would never write now but hey….whatever. It’s still nice to see my name in print. Like garlic…all is vanity. |

| “we’re not invincible we’re vincible” | June 28, 2009 | I’ve spent the last week or so rationing myself to one episode per day of Flight of the Conchords Series 1 and finally finished today.

| Black-hole humour vs it’s all about the song | June 6, 2009 | This being a blog that describes itself as all about televsion I should probably say something about the whole Chaser controversy, so here it is: I don’t care. I don’t watch “The War” because I don’t find it funny and never have. CNNNN was a far superior effort by this group of so-called comedians. I […] |

| Friday: Please leave a message at the beep | June 4, 2009 | For some reason I woke up this morning thinking about this absolutely fabulous theme song. So of course I had to share it with all of you. I watched this program a lot growing up as a child and the only thing I remember about it is the song, and the name Frank Lupo (in […] |
