Motherly Lesbian Knows Drug Bust Girl Shock!

Friday, July 30th, 2004

Remember how recently James Hewitt was arrested for possession of cocaine at a London nightclub? Well, arrested with him and was CNN newsreader and NZer Alison Bell… turns out Alison is from Wanganui and when I mentioned this to Jan, she was shocked! Alison had been one of her good friends in Wanganui in the […]

Merlin Is Magic

Tuesday, July 27th, 2004

How timely! I just received in the post a very special present from my friend Jek. Seems she bumped into Merlin from BB4 and got him to scribble me this little note! According to Jek, “He was roooly noice. and tall.”
The note reads “Hi Emily, Thanks for the support. Keep representing for the NZ crew […]

Which Colossal Death Robot Are You?

Monday, July 26th, 2004

Can it, you’re Bender!
In the robot world, you are a bit of a lightweight in the colossal death league, but you do mutter “kill all humans” in your sleep - and after all, it’s the thought that counts. We love you because you drink, steal, smoke cigars and gamble away things that aren’t even yours. […]

Reality TV

Monday, July 26th, 2004

I am loving reality TV at the moment. Here are my current top 4 reality shows:
1) The Amazing Race: Any show where you can find yourself cheering as a dwarf carries a side of beef along a Uruguyan street has got to be good value. Plus there is an icky pair of Christian models to […]

Swanson Report

Saturday, July 24th, 2004

We have just returned from a fun day out in Swanson and Bethell’s Valley. It was remarkably quick to drive out there, good timing on the traffic front I think, so we drove around a bit checking out the nice views of Auckland and Rangitoto. Then went and met up with the real estate agent […]

New Xenaland

Friday, July 23rd, 2004

We are going to head out to the West Coast beaches tomorrow for a bit of an explore. We are keen to check out Swanson, might be a good spot for lifestyle properties if we want to go down that track. Also I want to find some Xena locations which are out that way! I […]

Are We In The Matrix?

Thursday, July 22nd, 2004

Just read a freaky article that apparently we are all “quite likely” to be living inside a giant computer simulation.
If there exist civilisations with cosmic simulating ability, then the fake universes they create would rapidly proliferate to outnumber the real ones. After all, virtual reality is a lot cheaper than the real thing. So […]

26 Things

Wednesday, July 21st, 2004

Gonna give this challenge a try - 26 Things - it’s a photographic scavenger hunt. Could be challenging and have to have it done by the end of the month! Doh. I am posting my intentions here so as to motivate myself to complete it!

Which Famous Homosexual Are You?

Wednesday, July 21st, 2004

You churned out a bunch of high quality movies from an uncredited role in Singapore Sue (1931) to Walk Don’t Run (1966), working with everyone from Alec Guinness to Alfred Hitchcock, through Katherine Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe. Your birth name was Archibald Leach - but that didn’t stop you from being a mega-successful, international movie […]

Kiefer’s Down Trou

Wednesday, July 21st, 2004

Seems like Kiefer Sutherland is having a grand time in Wanganui and Raetihi. Just saw this in the paper:
He was spotted at the Red Lion Pub in Wanganui, where he drank and played pool against a New Zealander who beat him without Sutherland sinking a ball.
The penalty for this was a “down trou”, which […]
