If you have to ask what jazz is...you will never know.

My statement was no way directed at Clive James Neville, it just happened that I got around to posting this comment at that particular break in the conversation.
I was stirred into actually commenting on it by the people the media selected to promote the 'anti Abbott' line over the Bali executions.

What made it all the more ridiculous was the fact that those idiots simply advertised their absolute ignorance, I am sure not all actors would share the same views as those who were selected to have their lopsided opinions aired.

It is a bit like when the media interview a past politician for comment on current affairs, they generally select someone who cocked up when they were in office and now think they are a leading authority...perhaps they believe they have learned from their mistakes...

Yes Neville, we are all entitled to our opinions, however, the media don't promote our opinions for their cause.

Do "we" give them air time Matt? Or is if forced down our throats?

that's what I said...

Yes Ross, I've always found the pedestals that we place "film stars" on to be rather lofty for what they do, which is just pretend to be someone else.

On that note I guess pollies are much the same - the more successful (not better) ones, anyhow.

It has been said that politics is just show business for ugly people.

The big evener outerer that I find Marty is to picture the so called celebrity or such sitting on the loo.

Halle Berry on the dunny . . . . I'd like to see that

It's probably just like your dunny Marty. ( sans frogs)
