I thought I'd freshen up the place a bit. I don't really see the point in a 'News Flash' section (see to your left) because a blog is supposedly for the purpose of posting news flashes anyway. That 'News Flash' section totally defeats the purpose of this posting section. I might get rid of it soon. Please tell me if the colours hurt your eyes. I don't want a long line of lawsuits coming from you people because I have just made you colourblind.

I have a slight problem with this new layout. I don't think I can take myself seriously anymore considering the colours that I have chosen. It's just so happy... (?!), so expect a few tweakings over the next few weeks. Besides, I haven't added my links yet, my tattoo photo is looking rather stale and this pink double border surrounding this text is makes me look as if I'm constipated and/or sexually frustrated, you decide. [Editors note: I have taken off the awful yellow and pink border which Adri describes as "upholstery colours"]

In other news, Uni (apart from assignments) has been going pretty good this semester. I was just talking to a friend today about how 'balanced' this semester has become. Squash twice weekly, trivia weekly, coffee daily, uni work not so daily, days off, crazy days, etc etc. Not to mention grad apps... they are worth atleast 12 credit points. By the way, remember I was talking before about how I had a really great interview session with a company? Well, I am now through to the second round! I'm rather excited because I really wasn't expecting anything less.

My uni friends and I went to see Mark Watson last thursday for the Melbourne Comedy Festival. He was fantastic! I was rather worried about this because I chose the show for everyone, and if he wasn't good I would be on negative street cred for the rest of the year. Well not really... but people might ask for their money back :P.

My house is currently freezing. Our central heating has broken down and I feel like I'm sitting in an oversized Esky except I am not surrounded with beer.

BUT HEY, I was going through more of my archives and I remember stumbling upon a RUSSIAN website with the *funniest* article on David Bowie. I thought I might dig it up again because its so friggin rich!

First Bowie positioned himself as tender "white Duke". Because of David Bowie's amasing charm, many rich women and men wanted to have sex with him. However, he chose his own path to metrosexuality. Some of Bowie's scene images were frightening. "Thin White Duke" not only impressed people with his innovative music, but also opened the new way of following the path of good and evil to them. David Bowie is an extremely well-groomed man. It is shocking to imagine what will men of future look like if they all continue developing in this direction.

Bowie's fame increased after his singing "China Girl" song by Iggy Pope. Bowie admired with Pope, wrote songs for him and sponsored his discs. After Bowie sang "China Girl" and included this song in his album "Let's Dance", poor and homeless Pope became a millionaire.

Some more funny moments of which I found...

• Weird sexuality was among Bowie's features.


• His dressing sense had an unearthly aristocratic flavor contrasted with an earthly routine.


• On the preak of his popularity "Ziggy Stardust" turned into effeminate creature similar to elf.


• The key image was hero dropped to the Earth out of another world.


• Bowie started his career with singing unpretentious ballads and rock'n'roll.

HAHAHAHAHA!
