Protection Racket

I should start a category of “Coincidence? I think not.” These two pictures were taken a few metres apart. I can’t believe they’re not connected, and yet I’m not really sure how.

And another triumph for The Worst of Perth. You might remember only a few days ago, we reported on how sun damaged blinds were not helping the image of a tanning salon, Bodz. Today they were fixed. A vanished worst.

    The life of a cricketer is a lonely one.

    It is clear what has happened. A self-suppressed onanist has trown off his shackles and given in to temptation. Just think outside the box, LA.

  3. And I didn’t really want to censor, but a picture of a woman playing an ocarina might have been too much for even hardened TWOP readers. An ocarina! Only in Australia!

    Was this stuff found in Allen Park?

    If so, maybe the cricketer box thingie was designed by Gracie to stick over PM’s mouth to muffle his indignation as he punched out his 5000 worder on the evils of cycling helmets…

    Is that a wicket keeper in your pants or your just happy to see me ?

    This may be some sort of protest about Australia losing to India….it has an Asian theme to it.

    I will be keeping an eye out for the memorabilia merch being pushed during the Test series. For a limited time only, you get the autographed box, the ocarina porn, and a certificate of authenticity. Marvellous.

    Wouldn’t have happened in the Don’s day.

    At first glance, the picture of the woman on the viewer’s bottom left is quite odd. From the side-on angle, it looks like her mouth is in a sneering position, rather that the “I’m-about-to-play-with-my-ocarina/nipple/whatever” position it really is in. Mind you, if I was a woman whose breasts could be mistaken for a woodwind instrument, I’d look pretty disgusted, too.

    Midlandia @ 12 – I think an ocarina is actually more similar in appearance and function to a doona flute, rather than a chest puppy.

  14. #13, could be either.

    I reckon Warney’s expressed his disappointment by turfing his box when he saw the promo flyer.

    @14 – it probably says something about me that I leaped to such conclusions. I will leave the expert commentary to skink, in future.

  17. The power of the human mind could turn an innocent ocarina into almost anything smutty.

    That’s offputting… I bought the eldest son his very first box on Saturday, along with a special pair of Gray Nicolls undies with a pouch in front to accommodate the said box… or a light snack when you’re not batting.

    And no, I did not purchase him a stick magazine as part of this retail experience.
