Perth, Australia's hoon capital

Sunday, 22 November 2009 2:07 P GMT+10

Having returned repeatedly to Perth, Western Australia over the last two decades, I've seen a lot of changes. The place practically doubled in population, became ethnically and culturally way more diverse, and is now far more aggressive and fast-

Perth plod's monkey madness

Wednesday, 26 August 2009 1:12 P GMT+10

Over in Perth, a bloke pretending to be a monkey has been arrested by a bloke pretending to be a policeman . Kind of ironic, since that city has more than its fair share of criminal rock apes running free.

Andrew Mallard accepts payment

Tuesday, 26 May 2009 12:39 P GMT+10

Andrew Mallard still isn't happy, even though he has accepted the West Australian Government's offer of over three million bucks. (He originally requested over seven million.) But what's the diff between $7.25 million and $3.25 mill

Cottesloe icon gone

Saturday, 23 May 2009 7:47 P GMT+10

Anyone who has been to pictaresque Cottesloe beach will remember the pylon situated near the groin. I often surfed at that beach when I was a young grommet decades ago, and caught waves only metres from it numerous time. Last time I went there, a cou

Andrew Mallard

Saturday, 9 May 2009 2:55 P GMT+10

Andrew Mallard, who was wrongfully convicted for murder and spent 12 years in the slammer, has been offered over three million bucks in compensation. Yet he reckons it's not enough. While the poor bastard went through hell, justice was even

Beach butt ban

Saturday, 9 May 2009 11:41 A GMT+10

Smoking will be banned practically everywhere in WA, including between the flags on beaches. Bizzare. And what'd be the point? Smoking while swimming is practically impossible anyway ...

Everybody loves Ray

Wednesday, 29 April 2009 2:08 P GMT+10

Just learned that my old schoolmate Ray Costarella has wowed 'em at Australian Fashion Week. It seems he hasn't yet got a Wikipedia entry. He certainly deserves one. Any contributors out there who want to start a page for him?

Another occidental fall

Monday, 26 January 2009 11:06 P GMT+10

Re those spooky Perth plunges: there's just been one more.Alien spacecraft will be landing on the Narrows Bridge shortly, I suspect. (Thanks to Spot the Blog for the link.)

Bermuda Triangle for rock stars

Tuesday, 30 December 2008 2:23 P GMT+10

Pilots still get the jitters when flying near the island of Bermuda on account of all the planes that have mysteriously disappeared there. Now, the south west corner of Western Australia is well on its way to filling well known

Heath Ledger Theatre controversy

Friday, 31 October 2008 2:19 P GMT+10

Still over in the mild west: The Perth arts community is all asquitter over the naming of a new theatre complex. Knowing how petty and parochial that joint is the discord this issue creates will probably last for decades. You'd think that as purp

Juvenile injustice

Friday, 31 October 2008 1:02 P GMT+10

Some troubled teen has got West Aussie social workers worried. Deciding that the the cost of inaction will be greater (and where have I heard that argument used before?) the Department of Child Protection has set him up on an isolated farm with round

Joe and Kev

Sunday, 7 September 2008 12:56 P GMT+10

Here's Joe Hockey's analysis of the outcome in West Oz. He attributes Labor's poor result to dissatisfaction with Kevin Rudd. I reckon he's nailed it. Intriguingly, Hockey and Kevin Rudd are good mates. Amazing that they can keep

Nanny state to get nannier?

Wednesday, 20 August 2008 2:16 P GMT+10

West Oz Labor is a very strange tribe. See, if they win the upcoming election, they're gonna introduce a ban on outdoor smoking, even on the beach! Incredible. But also amazing that they would make such intentions public considering how close the

Blouse lifter condemns chair sniffer

Saturday, 16 August 2008 2:27 P GMT+10

So West Oz Labor is trying the gender card, trying to get still more mileage out of Troy Buswell's chair sniffing. Make no sense to do this. Buswell has gone, almost completely as a result of this very issue. They're clearly desperate.It'

Train wreck in the making

Thursday, 14 August 2008 1:43 P GMT+10

More bizarre goings on in Perth. Kevin Rudd, ironically there to help Alan Carpenter's chances at the upcoming election, yucked it up with Shifty Lifty and some Labor MPs.The two leaders then boarded a train for a laughter-filled 10-minute r

Nyoongar Patrol

Wednesday, 13 August 2008 11:54 P GMT+10

Here's a contemporary paradox: You're deemed a "racist" if you point out that Aborigines are disproportionately represented in crime statistics. You're considered even more "racist" if you endorse a compassionate "

Shifty Lifty's days numbered?

Monday, 11 August 2008 1:11 A GMT+10

Arrogant, blouse-lifting hypocrite Alan Carpenter showed what a brazen opportunist he is by calling the election straight after Troy Buswell quit as Liberal Party Leader. The former hack reckons he can dupe the people. But I reckon Julie Bishop has g

Premier pig

Tuesday, 22 July 2008 12:46 P GMT+10

More sexist behaviour from arrogant blowhard Alan Carpenter. This time, he monstered a heavily pregnant woman. Well, at least he didn't try to lift her top. Still, a truly unedifying display. And shouldn't feminists be condemning&n

Reece Whitby has cake, eats it too

Wednesday, 21 May 2008 1:40 P GMT+10

Journalist Reece Whitby keeps his old gig as a hack for Channel 7, even though he's one of Labor's new star recruits.You'd think that some hacks and/or or pollies would be mightily shat off about this. And surely such a situatio

Troy Buswell quokka-kicking scandal

Thursday, 15 May 2008 1:19 A GMT+10

I hate to ruin the fun for all those enjoying the latest "revelations" about Troy Buswell. But this rumor that he beat the crap out of a quokka is utter crap. And I know it's utter crap because I made it up and posted

Lives destroyed by chair sniffing

Sunday, 11 May 2008 2:40 P GMT+10

So the woman whose chair was sniffed by Troy Buswell feels victimized twice over now that she's been publicly identified. She says: "At the end of the day, it isn't Buswell who cops it. It is me." I think Tro

Jaye Radisich ups the ante

Saturday, 10 May 2008 3:55 P GMT+10

Alan Carpenter keeps saying that he didn't lift Jaye Radisich's top, and that her refusal to explicitly confirm this is related to internal Labor Party power plays.But then why would she go and hire a bloody lawyer? My guess is that it&

Pam Casellas defends a dinosuar

Wednesday, 7 May 2008 8:47 P GMT+10

Mediocre West Australian columnist Pam Casellas reveals that classic double standard of the cowardly PC feminist: It's only sexual harassment if your political enemies do it. Sure, I agree that Troy Buswell has been a bonehead who deserves

Breast nuzzler update

Tuesday, 6 May 2008 5:39 P GMT+10

Crikey! It seems that the function at which the Alan Carpenter was reputed to have exposed bras and nuzzled breasts was one helluva shindig, and almost became a swingers party! Yep, many of those attending started to nude up, prompting admoniti

Chair sniffers and breast nuzzlers

Monday, 5 May 2008 2:17 P GMT+10

The West Oz meeja are going spacko over this Troy Buswell chair-sniffing scandal. But there's another related controversy that has receved little attention yet has been brewing for a while.That's the Alan Carpenter blouse-lifting and br
