Meow Meow Madness!!!
I know I shouldnt post so much about A Current Affair, but when it keeps producing the goods like this little report its just so hard not to. its that damn good. Anyways tonight featured a story on "the new drug craze killing our children"... Meow Meow. Meow Meow (or Mephedrone) is a pretty new drug that was starting to become pretty popular back when it was legal and u could order it online. It has an effect that lies somewhere between coke and ecstasy, which makes this video even funnier...
Highlights include the Reefer Madness-esque drug binge dramatisations, some guy describing his hallucinations and his "eating disorder" he has now developed, oh yeah and the same guy telling how the drug turned him into a cat. enjoy...

Hey Dad... Stop Touching Me
This week channel Nine's pinnacle of journalism excellence (A Current Affair) showed just why it is the pinnacle of journalism excellence by "uncovering" news that things weren't as they allegedly seemed on the set of Australia's favorite nineties sit-come Hey Dad.
Child actor Sarah Monahan has confided to A Current Affair (and Womens Weekly) the pain of her ongoing ordeal of being molested by her then on-screen dad Robert Hughs. Sarah also stated she was not Hughes's only victem (poor Nudge?) and that the molestation went on the whole period the show was on air.
Whether Hughes is guilty or not guilty of these allegations is not the point (hes obviously guilty just look at those child predator glasses, the way the screen goes distorted when his face appears, and the way he smiles in slow motion like a sexual deviate in A Current Affair's Story?). No, the point to all this drama is as we journey deep into the 21st century, we as a society need to begin questioning the relevance of the police and court system. Why do we need them when wonder show A Current Affair is there to not only investigate these horrid crimes, but also offer financial compensation to the victims? Monahan obviously has no faith in the police service as she never even called them?
That being said maybe the police need to brainstorm because they appear to be heading the same way as the post office (remember them?) its time for police to workout where they fit into our society, as fighting crime doesnt appear to be their forte any longer.
on a lighter note id like to welcome Matty Johns back to television with the premier of his new show on channel Seven tonight

*Porn Banker Update*
A couple of days ago I posted a video from the channel 7 news where a bank worker was caught in the background of a report looking at porn. Well it has now surfaced that he was looking at nude pics of Miranda Kerr from a recent saucy GQ shoot. With the poor worker now looking like losing his job Miranda Kerr has come out and spoken in his defense saying that she hopes his bosses dont come down to hard on him and if there is a petition going around to save his job she would most certainly sign it (mmmmmm she can sign my petition any day).
read more on the story here
oh yeah... and check out Miranda's sexy shoot over at GQ

Men at Work Lose Kookaburra Case
For those that may of been following this. Men at Work have lost their plagiarism case, with a court ruling that they stole the "kookaburra sits in the old gum tree" flute riff for their 1983 hit "down Under". The band is now looking at coughing up 40-60% of thesongs earnings to the songs origanal creator Marion Sinclair, who wrote the classic australian riff in 1935 for a girl guides jamboree. This is a case that origanlly came about after attention was brought too the song after triple j's Lindsay McDougall ran a competition for listeners to name where the riff was from late last year.

Some Guy checking out Porn on the News Last Night
Caught this on the Channel 7 News last night, pretty funny. When they cross to Macquarie Bank watch the guy in the background to the left of martin Lakos's head. The best bit is when he realises his live on national TV
Pretty Lights
One of my mates in Denver put me onto local boy Pretty Lights's tunes the other day, and I like. Hes a prolific producer with a fresh electro/hiphop sound. I stumbled across this interview with the man himself over on Dazed Digital so check that out.
...oh yeah you can download any one of his albums for free from his website, so you got no excuse, go have a listen. NOW!

Fake Daft Punk Exposed
The fake Justice tracks didnt fool me for a second, but i gotta say i thought Daft's leak The Crash was the real deal for sure. Then when Kenye frothed out on the track on his fashionista blog i thought it was confirmed, but no...
According to urb its the work of Pilotpriest (whoever that is?) and the track is really called body double. So is this new marketing gimmick going to take off? who knows...? i dont really have time to discuss, i have to get my new Avalanches track finished off. peas
Back...
after a few months of my computer being on the fritz, im back. more posts to come stay tuned...
