Nikki for a logie

Logie nominations are to be revealed April 2. Is it possible to hold your breath for that long ?? I've got everything crossed that it's possible to cross, figuratively speaking, I don't think I could function being cross-eyed all the time.

Have we done enough ? 11 times I voted. Drew hasn't released how many responses he got about how many people voted. From what I can tell there's somewhere around 300 - 400 reported on myspace. Add on those who aren't on myspace - well it maybe enough to get a nomination at least.

Oh man, QM is really entertaining, they deserve the nom, and in my mind the award as well, the hosts and crew obviously have fun, and that comes across for the viewers. People watch it and most of them become hooked.

But you know when Nikki comes on the whole thing is just elevated to another level, Nikki really is the star of QM, and yeah QM deserves a gong, but Nikki really, really is the 'Best New Talent' on TV. There's something seriously wrong with the whole process if she doesn't get the guernsey.

Oh, and the other thing, sorry if it was too much.

Skin Ads

Those late night skin ads are just ridiculous. Do some guys really go for that ? I guess they must, they wouldn't be there if they weren't making returns, but really ...


'Call me and I'll jiggle my breasts for you, if you're really lucky I might do a handstand leg split for you' Aw gee, I feel privelidged. 'We squirt each other with hoses, teehee' They must have special dispensation from the water authority for that. 'If you call now, you could be in my bed tonight like this dufus here ...' yeah he's got gun, but notice he doesn't actually say anything, just lays there with a leacherous grin. If I was a female I think I'd start running.


Now I have as much appreciation for the female form as any other red-blooded male, but geez, those ads would be an insult if they weren't just laughable.


I was once saw a comedy sketch mocking skin ads, had a really thin weedy looking guy wearing grandpa's too big cotton underpants, posing with a silly grin, slowly nodding his head, haha it looked so ridiculous it was just hysterical, and I wonder if that's how they're perceived by a lot of women, as just being ridiculous. Well this male for one agrees with them.

Where it stops

Doing those things for the photo contest reminds of a quote from a famous artist -

A painting is never finished, it simply stops in an interesting place.

The Secret

The universe provides, we create with our thoughts - I reckon all that stuff is pretty right. Here's an interesting thing I was told once, I reckon it's pretty right too ...

Before the universe existed, outside of space and time, we existed as thinking sentience. However, in the timeless void, we became bored. And with a single thought, we created the material universe. Creating vessels to contain our essence, we entered into the world, simply for play. And to make the game seem important, so that we wouldn't be bored here as well, we deliberately chose to forget what we really are. But to make the game more interesting, we maintained the power of creation through thought. And even though we made the choice to forget, our souls do remember who we are, even if our thinking identities do not.

Or to put it another way, God made the cake, but could not taste the cake. We are agents of God, come here to taste and experience all the various flavours of the cake.

Interesting stuff eh ?

Pan's Labyrinth

That movie was supposed to be good, was it ? Can't see it myself. I just thought it was sad, as in teary sad. little girl lost, living in a fantasy world, dies in the end. Right, just the thing to pep me up.

Was given a very nice present, the best kind, something someone made for me. I was blown away. Another person emailed me happy birthday. I appreciate the thoughts.

Birthday Boy

My birthday tomorrow, Shit, where does the time go ? The older you get the more quickly time seems to pass. Should be the other way round, dammit!

Tomorrow I'm gonna spend a few hours working, setting up a camera and audio for recording some witness testimony, which will be happening Thursday-Friday. Meaning I'll be sitting in a Court on those days doing very little, but the money's excellent so I'm not complaining!

Tomorrow night I'm seeing Anne again, gonna see a movie. I can't wait !

Nikki in FHM

Oh man, if I'd known that FHM thing was in Sydney today I would've gone and checked it out. Maybe Nikki got tanned up specifically for the photo shoot. 46th is damn disappointing, but I like to think that the exposure and publicity of being in the top 50 is the sort of thing that money can't buy, and it is a tribute to Nikki, and her fans for doing their best to support her. I hope that when Nikki is the big star she has the potential to be, she won't forget us little people who loved her from the very beginning of QM, did everything we could to pump up her tyres for the road ahead, and .. yeah .. just fell in love with her basically. But somehow, I get the feeling she never will forget us, and that makes me happy.

I hope she keeps her myspace, I hope she keeps contributing to her fansite, even if as it maybe Nikki wants to move onto somewhere that may lead to more exposure, and more reasonable working hours I guess. Speaking for myself, and no doubt many other fans, I want her in my life, even if in such a .. distant way. Sorry, I'm rambling, I guess I'm in a little bit of shock at some of the things I've read today ...

but you know, it's all good .. It's all good. Nikki's star is on the rise, that's the most important thing. it's all good.

***UPDATE*** I wanted to add something here (feb 6), this last post sounds a bit ... meloncholy. What I want to add is that it is amazing to me, that when I watch Nikki on TV, I think .. That woman there, read my questions on her fansite and answered them. That is really great. It doesn't sound much, but it is really appreciated. Thank you Nikki.

Secret Squirrel

That was an old TV show wasn't it? I wonder if poor old Shinji stuffed up again, maybe he should have left it alone. but what's done is done, if it comes back, I'll leave it.

RSVP3

yeah, that was tonight - went out for a meal, talked a lot, laughed a lot, went back to her place, fixed her TV, talked some more, asked her out again, she laughed at me, eventually said yes, gave me a peck on the cheek, I left. Don't ask me what any of that means, I think too much.
