Sunday of my Life

Just finished watching the Melbourne International Comedy Festival Gala (boy, that’s a mouthful). For those Aussies reading this, if you missed it, you missed a great show. For those who aren’t priviledged enough to have Australian television…you poor, poor deprived people. The cream of international comedy was on there. Greg Fleet, Will Anderson…uh…several other people who names I can’t remember.

I may not be able to remember their names, but I can remember the laughs.

My favourite one-liner for the night (and this is something probably only Aussies will get, so I apologise to anyone from anywhere else who may be reading this): “Television is a powerful tool. But, then again, so is Eddie McGuire”. If I was at all inclined to do net-slang abbreviations, then I would probably be writing “ROFLMFAO” or something along those lines.

Channel 9 was trying to compete with Channel 10 tonight (10 had the Comedy Festival Gala), and so were showing Rush Hour 1 and Rush Hour 2. Something slightly spoiled this on their digital station, where they had a slight fuck-up, shown (sort of) in this screenshot: http://www.geelongforums.com/wp/ninebooboo.jpg

Well, I’m laughing. That was up on screen for about 90 minutes until they finally managed to solve the problem and get it off.

Heh
