I love her

There is a girl at Frasers work that he sits beside and has his eye on. She has a couple of standout features. Fraser drew them at work together. She didnt turn out as well as hoped.

I had a go at it too, working off Frasers description.

I eat heaps of apples but I still had to go

For the majority of the week ive had a sore ear. Nothing too painful just annoying. On Thursday i'd had enough and called the doctors office to get an appointment. It got sorted and an appointment was set for later on in the day. I left work and walked to the tram stop. Whilst walking there i noticed from the opposite direction some other person walking to the same tram stop. He was worse than trash, he was garbage. Big black hoodie with crap logo's all over it, a cap with a beanie on top and then the hood from the hoodie over the top of that, a couple of chains hanging off his side, didnt move his arms when he walked.....the usual shit. However the most striking thing to me was that he was wearing a pair of black shorts over the top of his blue jeans. Whats up with that?

Got to the doctors. There was no one in the waiting room but me, i dont think thats ever happened to me before. The doctor told me i had an inflammed ear pipe or something. His advice was to pop my ears 4 times a day. That was not worth $52. Whilst in the waiting room i did notice something. The kids toys are always worn down and broken and they always have one of those bead toys, sorta like the one pictured above. Does anyone see the hidden message in this one?

RUNNING SHOCKS FRASER

Just a little clipping Fraser found in the newspaper a few weeks ago. He cut it out and gave it to me especially. What happens next ill never know.

Saturday Night Sketch

We did some drawing on Saturday, we being Patrick, Fraser and myself. Todd doesnt draw, or read. After some drinks and whatnot we moved into some deep and always amusing conversation. The topic of conversation at the time somehow drifted over to Todd owning a BMX bike and cruising around Melbourne. He described his adventures, doing tricks and carving up the pavement. We didnt buy into it. The drawing pad got passed to Fraser and he drew what we were all thinking. Can anyone pick the 'Easter Egg' from a previous post?

We then shifted to the topic of call centres. Fraser told the tale of ringing Australian school kids and them answering "Who's Thiiiiiisssss!?" Again, Fraser drew it.

Patrick recalled all the times hes had to ring Australian deadbeats. The responses he gets are a little bit different. He drew it.
Sadly my little comic I drew for Fraser isnt allowed to be posted. Whilst Fraser was all for it, Patrick deemed it unacceptable. Something about a PG rating and mums :)

Gladiators

Gladiators is back in Australia! On Saturday at Albert Park, Channel 7 were encouraging fit and roided locals to try out in becoming part of the new breed of Gladiators. One can only hope that the great "Wolf" from the British series back in the old days comes flying down to take part. He was one scary dude and easily 20 yrs older than his next fellow Gladiator. Hopefully they produce the show here in Melbourne. That game where contestants had to shoot an assortment weapons at a target whilst a Gladiator was shooting tennis balls at them was always a favourite of mine.

Ooooh a side picture.

Patrick and I became public geeks on the weekend went to the Armageddon Pop Culture expo. It was everything you would expect of a convention like this. Smelly fat dudes, anime costumes, wrestlers, comics, animation voice actors, washed up Sci Fi television actors and actresses, Harry Potter film nobodies, video games, card games and Storm Troopers. At first we just had look around, soaking up the atomsphere, having a look at the booths, grabbing a coffee and watching some video games.
We attended a 1 hour Q/A with animation legend Bruce Timm, mastermind behind the Batman animated series and Justice League Unlimited, and his colleague, voice director Andrea Romano. The crowd was full of nerd enthusiasm but it was definitely the best thing we attended. I also got a book signed and waited far too long in lines. I hate lines. Whilst I was in line Patrick got to the see the grand entrance of WWE wrestlers RVD and Sabu. They were nice enough to charge $30 or so for an autograph and photo, as were the many "stars" of SciFi television. Apparently someone went for the hi-five but got shot down by RVD. Unfortunatly or not I forgot to take my camera but we took Todds video camera so there is a little bit of footage.

Todd, please leave my apartment

Patty saw a haggard prostitute that looked like she had black eyes tattooed on her face. Patty couldnt/wouldnt describe anymore than that. By Patrick.
I was walking to the Supermarket and ahead of me to the right some lady was getting out of a taxi. She had a giant pink trundler suitcase and the shortest skirt i have ever seen. I only saw the back side of her. Sitting outside the supermarket was the safety vest guys. They missed out.

Playing Fifa on Xbox

Im lazy and couldnt be bothered putting pen to the pictures. Any excuse to throw those arms in the air.

The French Horn

Last week i saw two little school kids, on two separate occassions, struggling around with a French Horn case. I couldnt believe it, why is it that the smallest 'runt' children always end up playing the instrument when they end up having a god awful time getting round with it. Its insane.

Tales to Astonish

Ive got a couple of stories today, one that happened today and one thats been an ongoing problem for the last couple of months. The first one happened today at work. Every Monday a big box of fruit is brought up into the office for everyone to help themselves to. We also have team meetings on Monday and sometimes people bring a bit of fruit in to eat whilst taking part in the meeting, a bit noisy when you have something crunchy but whatever. Anyway we have this new middle aged guy with a massive head that started last week and he brought in an apple to the meeting. Every now and then id glance over and check up on his eating progress. When he got to the core i thought, he'll probably put that on the table or in the bin, but to my horror he put it in his mouth and ate it. Im pretty sure that stalk thing at the top of apples was still on it too! He ate it like if he was eating a lollie. Still dont know what to think of him after he dressed like a 14yr old skateboarder on casual Friday last week.

The other story is a bit disgusting but has plague me in every job ive had here in Melbourne. Every time i go to the bathroom i enter the cubicle and someone left something behind. I dont know if its just my rotten luck or someone is doing it deliberately to me. I had a good week last week and think i only stumbled onto it once but today, first time going into the bathroom at around 9.30 and there it is, someones mess. Its shit.

Airwolf

On Saturday Fraser Patrick and myself went to JB HiFi, a music/dvd store. Fraser and I were browsing through the new release DVD section and spotted this show 'Airwolf'. We had never heard of it before but were struck by the uncanny resemblance of one of the shows main characters to Fraser boss, the dude on the right. Fraser also stated that the guy at the bottom of the image looked too haggard to be an actor and should have retired years ago.
