Twilight

May 27th, 2009 by Rose

I really really didn’t want to, but found myself enjoying the movie Twilight, so much so I have watched it a number of times now (not gonna tell you how many in total!). I’ve been listening to the audio books while I exercise for a couple of hours each day. I’m not as into the books as much as the movie, the Bella character is very annoying in the books whereas in the movie she is a little more independant. Though this is slowly changing as I get into the second book of the series New Moon.

Robert PattisonSo I have a huge crush on Robert Pattison, he is so hot in the movie though my mother and sister strongly disagree, I reckon he is a lil cutey. I’m looking forward to the next movie coming out later in the year. In the meantime, am enjoying the books.






Full Moon – The Black Ghosts

May 24th, 2009 by Rose

When the thorn bush turns white that’s when I’ll come home
I am going out to see what I can sow
And I don’t know where I’ll go
And I don’t know what I’ll see
But I’ll try not to bring it back home with me

Like the morning sun your eyes will follow me
As you watch me wander, curse the powers that be
Cause all I want is here and now but its already been and gone
Our intentions always last that bit too long

Far far away, no voices sounding, no one around me and
you’re still there
Far far away, no choices passing, no time confounds me and you’re still there

In the full moons light I listen to the stream
And in between the silence hear you calling me
But I don’t know where I am and I don’t trust who I’ve been
And If I come home how will I ever leave

A funny kind of something
wandered by me today.
I couldnt see the reason
nor could I see a way.
Yet thoughtlessly forgiving
the why remains unknown
How far his love would take me
and for what it would atone.

Bushfire suspect Ron Philpott on A Current Affair

May 8th, 2009 by Rose

Those of you who know me well will know my thoughts on the two current affair programs, Today Tonight and A Current Affair, their stories are beat ups, they are like drunken laywers chasing after the ambulance. And so it was only a matter of time before one of them got their hands on Marysvilles bushfire suspect Ron Philpott.

Like vultures to the carcass to feast, it was obvious before anything even started that the lie detector test would need to be inconclusive if it were to satisfy the requirements of their legal team, given this man is a suspect and all…

My own opinions are that the detector test was a farce, the detector monitors how the persons heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate and electro-dermal activity (sweatiness etc) change in comparison to normal levels. None of these are affected by body movements, which in itself is something the detector monitors as seperate altogether.

I really feel for this bloke, for a few reasons – its obvious the guy has had a hard life. You can tell just by looking at him, there is nothing particularly soft or delicate about the man. His use of classic Australian language didnt help him in his original interview shown on Ten news when he described the fire as We got a good one ere, to quickly correct himself to say Bad, I mean bad.

Personally I feel if the police had enough evidence to suspect this man then he would have been arrested as he would be a danger and menace to society. A killer. Under Australias anti-terrorism laws he could have been hauled in for both his own protection, and ours.

I have no doubt he may have been a suspect, as those who tend to keep to themselves tend to end up being the ones who did it, but this guy is just being pulled deeper and deeper into the cess pit that is the unnatural world of the media. Something I have witnessed first hand after the event of the bushfires.

So before you take the side of the media and mark this man as accused, have a closer look at the track record of A Current Affairs, a show that has proven over and over again they are vultures who work like Satan in providing half-truths to people who think everything they see on TV is true…
