Bouncing Bunny Bloggin'

So it's day two of the MEGA LOOOONNNNGGG Easter Weekend and as I depart Sydney I found Good Friday most services I required were still fully functioning, the movies did a roaring trade, my waxing lady was totally up for asking me "Do you want me to wax your bum, I notice you have hair there", thanks lady. After smashing some Pho and heading out to Strathfield for some frozen yogurt from a swing set it was time for some dreamy Central Coast action.

It always excites me visiting the Tuggerah Westfield, you think bad tattoos and larger brides are exclusive to the Gold Coast well just come on down to Westfield Tuggerah, you sometimes get two for one, the tattoos are fucked, the brides are large and the outfits, simply delicious.

After enjoying some chilled time on the Coast, walking the amazing little Maverick multiple times with multiple poos bags being filled, washing three gosh damn cars and doing a light shop @ Coles Wyong, my day feels really complete.

With dinner looking like a trip off to the Central Coast's own Gold Coast environment Terrigal, the day is really just getting started.

Long weekends and Easter really are sublime, it's time to unwind and get counting down to another holiday in Anzac Day.

March/April in Australia really has to be the most killer time of the year.

Just another friendly reminder my new blog kicks off Monday and I thought I would leave you today with a few of my most recent favourite tunes I have heard road tripping over this long weekend:



Ahhhhh nothing like some fuzzed out stoner rock music for a road trip and how chilled is this song to go along to, loves it.



And staying in that same stoner mind set it's our own famous stoners from Perth, Tame Impala, definitely the album highlight.



One of the best DANCE songs of this year to date, a real different direction to the above songs, so far this list of songs is totally ace, if I do say so myself.



So much bad language for such a sweet song, but Thelma Plum proves "Father Said" wasn't just a fluke.



Not a new song, but relevant for the weekend of Easter.



Bit of a sing a long, till tomorrow, later Easter Bitches.....

Pre Long Weekend + Good Friday (without Religion)

So I am like a lot of Australians who are not religious and basically love Easter for the shear fact we have four days off and the world (or Sydney) slows down a bit for the four day Easter Egg feast.

So here is what I have done and dusted since 5pm knock off time at an institute plagued by strike action all week, seriously co workers work a three hour shift at Denny's in the USA for minimum wage.

So after work it's dinnertime so in fine dining style Slide on Sydney's Oxford Street threw on a great bash that they are rolling out on selected Thursday's called The Gin Mill Social.  What a great little event, great food, great company (thanks Mel & Matty) and some nice music.

If you like the Roaring 20's you will love this event and if you like ace food then this is totally for you, so give it a crack, the next Gin Mill Social is Thursday 18th April 2013.

After a slight rest it was time for a refreshing run (after stuffing my face last night and boot camp being cancelled today) in and around Sydney Uni, with a touch of autumn in the air this was totally a nice and ace way to bring in the Long Weekend.

After running finding a rotten banana (thanks Coles your fresh food really is starting to suck giant big Tony Abbott balls) and enjoying my fresh budget home made coffee of the day I enjoyed the well produced, researched and presented second episode of "The Checkout" what a great little hybrid between The Chase & Hungary Beast.

After smashing some home made pancakes it was time for some childhood fun, Gi-Joe: Retaliation the sequel to the original Gi-Joe film. It was a big improvement and cast really well, the Rock really is coming into his own and Bruce Willis what an action icon, so here is my mini Easter film review:

Whats on at the Movies 2013 {Easter Style} - Gi-Joe: Retaliation

First up so many spunks in this film, the Rock was looking fine, I don't really dig Channing much but I know a lot do, Lee Byung-hun as Storm Shadow (mostly shirtless) was drop dead delicious & D.J Cotrona where have you been all my life.

So enough about the talent, here is the trailer for anyone interested:



The action sequences in this film were first class, mainly between Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow and newcomer Jinx. The film just worked so much more than the original. The only lacking thing was no Joesph Gordon Levitt as Cobra Commander.

Will a third Gi-Joe film rise up, one can only hope!

So for my review rating 3.5 Stars for this fine action film and something tells me I might catch another ace Bruce Willis action film this long weekend.

So in conclusion thank god (or not) for the long weekend how blissful and productive can four days off be. It's so chilled, washing done, house relatively clean and now it's time to plan my new BLOG, Flashing off the Record it's coming Monday and you can bookmark it NOW!

So if it's fish your eating today or just chilling at home, on a road trip or taking advantage of the movies being off and so many fine films on at present (Gi-Joe really is a top pick) or you just could be excited to watch Game of Thrones season 3 this weekend.



Yes HBO's EPIC blockbuster is back for a third season, Cray Cray!

Anyway tune in over the weekend for a new chart, lot's of lolz and fun times ahead.

Drive safe and eat shitloads of Easter eggs and Hot Cross buns, it's Easter Y'all!

Flashing OFF the Record

A new BLOG by little old me is coming soon, it's called Flashing off the Record first post on Easter Monday/April Fools, but this is no joke y'all.

In the meantime check out some hot new releases, I think I mentioned this one earlier it's Ngaiire (she has recorded with Paul Mac in the past and I think her voice is killer) check out her new clip below:



Swimming are fresh from the lovely city of churches Adelaide and this is how they sound, dreamboats ahoy!

Chance Waters has worked with Bertie Blackman and released an album last year, he used to trade under Phatchance but here is his latest work:

Asta was unearthed by JJJ last year for their Unearthed High promotion and here is her latest track:

More new releases and music stuff coming at y'all on Monday on Flashing off the Record, make sure you check it out, bookmark it, comment on it, read it, love it & all the rest.

Happy Easter, 4 day weekend BITCH!

RE: Enemy of Average PART TWO - Australian TV + the Logies (Local Content)

So some people agree with me about our local TV content being an abortion gone wrong but others have said, you know reality TV has a place in society. Hmmmmmm

I just read about the recent media reforms (a little) and I think Senator Stephen Conroy was onto something with getting up the points attributed to Australian content. But I think I have a solution, it's clear Channel Nine, Ten & Seven do not want to make quality Australian drama anymore so be it, let's leave it to SBS and ABC who are making the real decent programs (locally produced and written) and let the other commerical networks off the hook.

By ruling NO Australian content on the three big stations, this would kill off news, current affairs, reality TV (if I don't see another evil villain (who is of another race) on MKR I will be ever so happy) and no more Packed to the Rafters or Winners and most importantly losers.

Channel Seven, Nine & Ten could pay ABC and SBS through advertising income royalties to create new and exciting Australian drama like Redfern Now, East West 101, Miss Fischer's Murder Mysteries, Doctor Blake, Go Back to Where You Come From, Once Upon a time in... and the list goes on, so much quality viewing that would appeal to a more lucid audience than a MKR or the Voice audience who clearly forgot about the contestants after the show.

Poor old Darren Pericval is always doing 2 for 1 gigs, Rachel whatever the blind ones surname is, is about to release another mind numbing coma inducing record and DeBono and who was the winner? Where are they now?

Ricky Martin is already capitalising on the Voice in Australia by prepping a greatest hits to be released. FML Delta back on TV, it almost makes me want to relocate to Iraq from this divine paradise we call Australia.

So Julia G (Ms PM) can I come on board and really shake up these media reforms cause Conroy kinda ruined it a bit for y'all and look it's time to go:

My Kitchen Rules
Big Brother
The Block
The Voice
X Factor
Australia's Got Talent (Just not on Channel 7 or 9)
Masterchef
the new renovation show coming to Seven
Great Bake Off - Coming to Nine
The Biggest Loser

How amazing would that be a world without these reality brain drainers?

Just a thought....

Hey I launch a new BLOG over Easter, FLASHING OFF THE RECORD, it's all music, all the time and hopefully you can join me when I hit the BLOG running over the weekend, the Sunday countdown's will move there, new music previews and more will be found there, it will be fun, so see you then and happy hump day, yeah Friday's a holiday, thank you Jesus or whatever the reason we are off work for.

RE: USA Today - Final Images

So there has been a delay in me getting these up, I found myself struck down by some nasty ass cold yesterday and have spent the weekend finishing up Enlightened which has been such a ground breaking and fun show to watch while blowing my nose 200 million times.

So here it is you saw Vegas (through my eyes), you saw LA and now it's onto San Diego and Hawaii. Plus a little look into Mexico.

So here goes, it's a picture holiday:

Yeah so that's me @ San Diego Zoo, LOLZ

How did I get here, yikes!

Hawaii/Honolulu by late Afternoon, view from Trump Towers, DIVINE!

They even put on fireworks for little old me, oh I love Hawaii!

A holiday always needs a good slab of culture.

A tidy ass Wal-Mart, somewhere random, Oh boy! America!

This show is stalking me y'all!

That's it for now maybe some more pictures to come, full new countdown coming tomorrow AM maybe even before I head off to Boot Camp.

Happy Sunday
