If your Carlton Draught just doesn’t cut it or your Pure Blond pulls up a bit bland, you might be interested to hear of the latest tipple from the guys who brought you Tokyo beer, at a punchy 18.2%.

BrewDog’s latest concoction weighs in with a monstrous ABV of 32% is described as “bold, irreverent and uncompromising”, and is aptly named Tactical Nuclear Penguin.

If it doesn’t send you blind it will certainly give you Happy Feet!

Local CFA fire fighters were called out to a suspected gas leak in Axedale near Bendigo, only to discover a fat farting pig the cause of their callout.

Axedale fire captain Peter Harkins says the pig’s owner had alerted authorities.

“He was a little bit embarrassed to say the least. It took us a little while to compose ourselves, to speak to him,” he said.

Not a fat pig farting!

Last night I made a note to write a follow-up to Beware the Butcher of Bendigo following the news that Barry Rochford had been found guilty of animal cruelty, according to United Press International, but in reality I should be commenting on the legal system.

The 6 month prison term handed down by the court was pitiful, in my humble opinion and combined with his current sentence of four years for multiple arson, he would be eligible for parole in early 2011.

Wow! It’s almost enough to make you want to take up a life of crime!

Edit – I just realised I posted this with the title ‘Barry Rochford Found Hanged’. I swear it wasn’t wishful thinking, just a slip.

….and sometimes it’s downright embarrassing! Take this morning’s slender win over the South Sea Islanders Samoa, for example. What the FUCK!! I swear, I was in pain watching and not like ‘The Office’ (UK) either, more like a gay snuff movie that slipped past the  board of sensors.

I put up with a lot of shit because of my nationality. For the locals it’s a novelty that can be summoned upon every F-ing Friday night. God forbid they ever uncover the relentless ammunition served up by the Welsh rugby team.

Cymru am byth and all that but today I was embarrassed to be Welsh!

As the furore over the lip-synching-and-very-little-else debacle plaguing the one-time pop princess Britney Spears continues, an amusing comment on News.com caught my eye…

I find it not a little disturbing that the vast majority of visitors come here by way of a Google search for nude photos of Julia Gillard! This is the reason why they come, ergo the reason the post appears in Google’s search results but is anyone able to explain to me why one would be Googling for images of Australia’s Deputy Prime Minister in her birthday suit?

No disrespect Julia but there’s only one thing slightly more disturbing and that would be the notion that some people search for explicit imagery of Kevin Rudd!

For those of you who have arrived here in the false hope of seeing The Honourable Ms Gillard in the buff, I apologise for the anti-climax but offer the following snippet of trivia instead…

…the Deputy Prime Minister of Australia was born in Wales, no less and if you’ve read anything else on here, the significance of that statement will be clear.

Waving it for Wales!
