Weekend Worstoff 38

Was a nice week inPerth Worsts. The Chong conspiracy, wormholes in Moora and moor.  As is the tradition some worsts from the wider world for the weekend.

Marjoriex thinks the person believed responsible for the Walrus sculpture in Morley has visited Frankfurt. Perhaps. I think they were going OK until the man’s head. She also looks like she’s performing some sort of vitnary procedure on two cow backsides too. Thanks Marjoriex . unchain my boozies

From Cimbali.

Perth Airport always comes up trumps in any worst of perth discussion but this was my favourite this time – along with the red emergency light on the roof of the ladies toilet with the word evacuate underneath it.
Do you think that this means the bags are made out of road kill?

Yes they probably thought it was clever. I like the sound of the evacuate light Cimbali, but it becomes another worst. A photo opportunity someone tells me about but didn’t take.

And David Fucking Outrage Cohen saw this in Shenton Park. Why? Or perhaps the marketing hook is that the dogs can eat their dinner twice? Thanks DFOC.

then they eat it again

And a final one fromHazel whos dad found copies of the old Western Mail in a ceiling. I think this was before Paul Murray was political editor. There are several more I’ll put up.

    Speaking of the Olden Days, did anyone check out Dace Warner’s essay on Perth in the 60’s & 70’s in the West Magazine. He mentioned TWO of our faves – Hans Merks AND Barrie Barkla :-)

    Dave must have been reading TWOP :-)

    And Dave Warner in the article mentioned in my previous post mentions how the Orbit Inn was one of only 2 licenced premises on a Sunday back in the dim dark days of restricted Sunday liquor laws.

    Just read Stu’s post on the beer festival – hilarious – so much more embarrassing than Basso’s recent Planet Earth Day, the beer fest made that look almost successful.

    At least it wasn’t held in the Town of Claremont – if their botching of the Big DAy OUt is anything to go by and which required Ministerial Intervention once again.

    In fact the Organisers are so pissed off with Claremont Council they are considering bypassing Perth altogether.

    No wonder Perth is Dullsville where tinpot councils can make or break an event.

    Cultural Cringe, the lot of it.
    An attempt to copy something from another culture and environment for the sole purpose of making a quick buck.
    The average mug punter is so sure that anything exotic has to be better than a home grown product that they will shell out to attend the ghastly echo of a foreign festival even when the seasonal conditions are completely out of kilter.
    OctoberFest is held in the seasonal equivalent of April in South Island NZ!
    Autumn in high latitudes for chrissake. Not Mid Summer in the sub tropics.
    That anyone actually paid to get in demonstrates well the inability of people to intelligently discriminate between fact and commercially created fiction.
    But I’m getting all tooo serious again. Am I not.

    Can anyone say El Caballao Bianco ? Herb Alpert made a nice sum in performance royalties over the years as the shows were basically a soundtrack of his entire catalogue.

    Yep, after many years of laying dormant after the original owners went bankrupt, they relaunched it as a function centre for Conferences and only recently brought back the horses show.
