Midland D’Art

Is this a Midland art installation or just rage? I know there are some trolley freaks out there. From Ryan.

  4. The execution is so masterful that it almost looks casual.

      Firewall issues forced me to follow the Hanson story via comments on the West website. Sweet Jesus – that is nought but a haven for unreconstructed Camilloians.

      Today brought out all the nutcases in force, but it was a few days ago (in response to the story about Perth being ‘8th most liveable city in the world’) that I saw the word “niglet” used in reference to an Arab child. Gareth Parker turns up every now and then to tell them to play nicely, but they’re all too far gone along the road to bonkers – one of them used Pig Latin to get his brainfarts past the moderators.

        I liked the West’s online poll:

        “do you agree with Pauline Hanson?” yes, or no?

        agree with what?

        agree that she should fuck off to the far side of the world?

        or agree with every hatstand statement that issues from her mouth?

    This seems to me to be but a study for the real installation, which will no doubt come into being the next time fresh concrete is being poured.

    Reminds me of the time that I was sitting outside a Pizza shop in Midland (opposite the Coles loading dock at Centrepoint) – Yeah yeah, I was in Midland. Visiting a friend and decided to get some pizza.

    Anyway, there was a bloke sitting on top of a shopping trolley that was on it’s side, skulling back a couple of cans of bourbon, trying to hide them so that nobody saw. Wish I had a camera.

    Is that a large horse-sized condom laying next to the trolley?
