Never will I

Two things struck me today on my commute to work. 

Why on earth is Russian tennis player Maria Sharapova the only one to speak with such a strong American accent? Even Marat Safin, who is seven years older than her, speaks with a thick Russian accent. I know that most professional tennis players go to college in America, but surely the accent is put on! She sounds ridiculous.

The second thing that hit me today is about a train station. Why is Spencer St station called Southern Cross station? It sounds tacky and lame. Never will I call Spencer St station 'Southern Cross station'.

He's famous now

Well Corey Delaney (or is it Worthington now?) was tracked down by A Current Affair again. Funny how they can contact him but his parents have no hope. Here is his famous video from last night's episode. It seems as though Corey may have a new career in mind. Nova have requested an interview with him and he has been asked to host parties all over Australia. Have a watch of tonight's interview live, from Frankston Beach (of all places).

I have no idea what to think of this teenager anymore. On the one hand, he is a complete dickhead, but on the other, he cracks me up. Maybe ACA should be thanking him. He has attracted a ridiculous number of viewers for the program and has not received a cent. 

I imagine he could have earned enough money to pay his potential police fine and them some. Gotta love chequebook journalism...

I hate Channel 9...

I was at work today watching A Current Affair with Leila McKinnon. Can't say I was paying too much attention to it...that was until a teenager by the name of Corey Delaney came on. Read about Corey here. McKinnon interviewed Delaney and, even though what he did was fairly stupid, he provided me with a laugh and a half. As soon as I find the video of it, I will post it on here. Quite possibly the funniest thing I have ever seen on ACA.

I hate Channel 9...but can't help watching tabloid television.

Does Ant-Rid work?

It's that time of the year again where ants make a home in our backyards in order to make their pilgrimage to our kitchens to eat every last bread crumb available.

Over four thousand types of ant species exist in Australia and most of us want the ones that populate our kitchens dead. Oh yes, I am one of those people. With some advice from a friend in mind and $3.50 in my pocket, I bought some Ant-Rid. My kitchen became like a warzone. Bench tops were blotted with the honey-like product and cupboards held the same treatment. Immediately, dozens of the worker ants began consuming it. They were loving it. An excellent video of Ant-Rid in action can be seen on YouTube. I left for work that afternoon, proud of my evil treatment of these ignorant insects.

Whilst it has been relatively cooler in weather over the past week, the ants have not returned. Melbourne will be hit with 40+ degree temperatures over the next two days so this will test the true power of the Ant-Rid liquid.

Does Ant-Rid work?
Heck yes it does!
