There's a pigeon squashed on the street.

So I hear that Borne are playing here in Melbourne. Alright, it's the outer suburbs of Melbourne ( whittles down those die hard fans who can't be bothered making the trek to Belgrave ).
More info about the gig here.
What I'm more curious is who would be interested in attending? I might be that Friday thus far. Manifest will be over, and I should have some idea of what to get for Gim by then. Now if only I could remember who got me into them in the first place. Fuu maybe? I dunno, I've got so much music on my computer that it's starting to get difficult to remember who introduced me to what.

Speaking of presents for Gim, my cousin Gim Leng is getting married in October. Yes, I'm flying back to Malaysia for that one. After all he's one of the closest cousins in age to me. ... Oh dear god the Teoh's are dropping like flies! Which only begs the question why I seem to be looking after women so much if the thought of marriage terrifies me. Digression aside, I'm not entirely certain what I should get for him at this stage. Seriously, what does one get for a guy who has everything? I was originally thinking along the lines of something wine-related as that is one of his current loves/hobbies. But then I came to the conclusion that perhaps everybody else would also think along the same line and that just wouldn't cut it for simply good stuff. What about Australian wines? I don't have enough of a taste to know what would precisely hit what he likes. *sighs* This is getting far more tricky than how it was for Desi & Kingsley.

Moving right along then, I watched an episode of South Park which had the little town terrified of old people driving so they were going to take away their licenses. Now last I heard there was some aged residents who had to get their licenses re-issued in Australia. But that's just being ageist. Bigoted against just one criteria. Not really reaching the full potential of bias. What am I against? Old, short, Asian women whose eye-height is just below the steering wheel whilst they drive a 4WD or SUV. That's right Ageist, Racist, Sexist and Height-ist! I've nearly been killed twice by such women! Once as a pedestrian, the other time in a car. GET THEM OFF THE ROADS NOW!
