For persons puzzled by Pottage's Mars Methane references. Martian sunrises and sunsets can also be found at that site.

Didn’t he get the arse from 6PR for being too soft on refugees? or am I thinking of someone else?

He might have, but maybe our guru of all thing political My Ning may know more.

Is he so bad? What are his worst credentials?

His West TV reports during the State Election are a prime example :-)

Shallow Spice on speculation on who will get the gig.

But be VERY afraid of this choice.

West investigative reporter Gary Adshead, who has worked for Seven News in the past, is also rumoured to be a possible candidate.

You bastards , you hunger for it, you dream of it, but you’ll never get the gig , commies.
Chong chong san ripped your balls off , No ballsed from the maiden over . In any case you need the blue balls of freedom or freedom balls not red balls. You can’t keep up with the cojonesies required.
We don’t employ weirdos , commies or women in management apart from trannies. We employ a few of them further down the feeding frenzy so we can jerk their chains.( see Needsglasses )
Mosellas you old bag you don’t have any balls so you’re an early scratching.
Personally I woudn’t mind if Bob Normal got up .He’s an old ,slow, dumb horse who can’t write but stays the distance.

You know I depend greatly on up to date information about Mars. Frinstance the tone of my articles is set by that great fillum “ Mars Atttack” : “Ack ack”. Also Muttsie goes nuts when their brains get squished. I just swish “Our Baz” has directed it.
I had woken up and realized I was in a dire predicament, I couldn’t remember writing my column. I return to my columns as surely as Muttsie returns to a yak : even when it isn’t his. So I had to know where to file this Martian one : “ Beyond parody” or “ On the piss”
I had to contact the experts on lunar right symbolism. Rattler or Liar O’Fartlett. Liar O’Fartlett was no good : couldn’t tell the truth if his life depended on it.
Rattler said he thought he could crack the code but the meter was set to $ 250 an hour . I told him to shove it
He didn’t get the right amount of wonga for his house and now he’s hungry as a shark that ate a chunk of wettie.
I had to do the deciphering myself of the Potty code.
Guide to Life on Mars
There is a level of indirection. You have to view things from the viewpoint of a Martian looking at Earth using the West Australian as a source of information. The earth has discovered that Mars is warming caused by methane from cows. But get this …. in reality Mars has no cows so how come its warming ? ( Answer , in reality , it isn’t).
Connect this with earth related global warming mechanisms ?
Dixtionary
Methane …. farts
farts….. methane
Paul Murray………flatulence
milkshakes….scotch
milk……. money
Dix-Ie,,,,,,,,,,Channel 9 reporter Dixie MarsHo geddit !!!
This following bit I could not decipher I assume it was just to get the word count up.
“But now the Martian love of milk and cheese had brought them undone. Just like on Earth, methane emissions from cows, in reality from burping not farting, were proving an environmental headache.”
“burping not farting,” that’s disappointing, and why do I have to keep repeating “in reality”.
Quote some statistic about methane on earth.
Then get emissions based trading completely wrong and voila the compete shambozzle.
I’ll send this in to Psychology Today with the title “Auf die Psychologie der Marsmenschen” and call myself Goethe.
