the graffiti certainly improves the architecture.

That’s not graffiti. It IS the artist’s impression.

I’m drinking stinking Melbourne Bitter in a bar that’s in a literally stinking alley! There is palpable vibrancy spilling out of skips full of shit rotting in the sun. Sweet!

TLA – I highly recommend a visit to Wellington Crescent if you’re up that end of the city.
Classic worst worthy bronze nudie statues, all anatomically intact in various suggestive poses.

I have heard about the Paris End of Collins Street.
Evidently there is now also a New York End of Collins Street.
Which makes one wonder what the Middle of Collins Street is like.
I’d like to think they’d mix it up and include six or seven miles of Manchester.

I think of it as Why The Hell Do We Want Perth To Look Like This Street. TLA should bring back a suitcase of starlings to complete the effect, all the concrete benches and glass shopping malls just feel empty without them.

A young man sits down at the bar.
‘What can I get you?’ the barman asks.
‘I want a Manhattan with six shots of whisky,’ responds the young man.
‘Six shots? Are you celebrating something?’
‘Yeah, my first blowjob.’
‘Well, in that case, I’ll give you a seventh shot on the house.’
‘No offence mate’ says the young man ‘but if six shots won’t get rid of the taste, nothing will.’

Thought I better give The Age a look and to compare with The West. The result? Rather embarrassingly, the Age was equally as bad, today at least. Column Melbourne 3000, every bit as insipid and unfunny as Inside Cover. Perhaps slightly blander. Snoreworthy column by someone called Myf Warhurst which was of the standard, tone and quality of any WAToday female. Rubbishy boring tosh. And the Age has the misfortune to have the enduringly awful Leunig as cartoonist. It’s just time for Leunig to die. Btw has Alston gone senile? Also may be time to join Leunig and Zoltan Kovacs as tins of soylent green.
