Public art triumph

Nice to see some graffiti that you have to think for a moment about whether it’s actually some “real” public art. I quite like it. Could do with some cocks sprutting out some of those coloured circles, but, in any case…By In myTree.Wall-Art-Innaloo-Jan-2013

Well did you?

Niggerheads

It is unclear whether “niggerhead” as a term for the shitty burls that are used to create even shittier coffee tables has been “whited” out officially or by a visitor to Manjimup who had a WTF? and some whiteout handy. Why is this gift from Manji Shire council still extant? WTF Manji? Let’s ask the Manji Shire Council eh? And stop saying niggerhead! “Niggerheads are sought after for a variety of decorative purposes.” Well it’s a bit hard to know how to respond to that. But stop saying it. Seriously, stop saying niggerhead. By Matt. Manjimup timber park. Aka repository for niggerheads.niggerhead1niggerhead2niggerhead3

Outrage Sunday 83 social and cultural merits

There’s a shitstorm coming Alex Manfrin’s way – and deservedly so. The TantaMount Cards tycoon has upset a decent, law-abiding, respectable citizen with one of his “products“…

“Dear Sir/Madam,
On my visit to XXXXXXX bookshop yesterday, I came across a Tantamount greeting card about Armadale mothers. I live in Mt. Nasura located within the district of Armadale and I was highly offended at the nature of the card. I do not think it’s necessary to isolate certain suburbs/towns/cities with offensive stereotypical messages such as depicted in this card. What is there to be gained by such disrespectful material? What is your aim intended with this? I certainly don’t understand your reasoning for this subjective insult about a particular suburb. You and your co – workers, who obviously lack product information and imagination, need to visit the area and take a look for yourself at the many merits, socially and culturally of the district of Armadale and its surrounds. I and my family, would be very happy to escort you around.
I am a university graduate with a degree, (as is my husband) and I have spent most of my professional and personal life in the area for the last 28 years.
I suggest you remove the card off the market. I will be contacting the XXX XXXXX Bookshop with the same request and also my local member of Parliament. As I was with a few of my friends at the time who are also from the area, I will be suggesting to them to do likewise, which I know they will be more than happy to do.
Regards XXXX XXXX”

What is there to be gained, INDEED sir. on Alex’s Facebook another comedian wrote: “i think you should seriously consider pulling the card Alex. i don’t think i could live with myself if i ever did comedy that could possibly offend someone….”

Meanwhile, this guy’s made it to Claremont from Midland via Nollamara in two years. Mission accomplished.

he lives near the UERN

…but why should we care? Clumsy language from the Public Transport Authority. I was grateful to learn of impending track work near Casa Cohen (although the light-sleeping Krazy Kym will be fretful) and appreciated the promise to make as little noise as possible. But then track infrastructure maintenance manager Bill Buckless says: “As someone who lives near the Urban Electrified Rail Network, I hope you continue to enjoy the benefits of travelling on our fast and reliable service.”

Albany Rifle Club

Have I really not put up this lovely carpeting from Albany Rifle Club from Eleanor T. before? Maybe I have but can’t find it. I’m sure Bob Juniper would have trodden a carpet like thisrifleclub.

Wednesday election

First they got rid of roster petrol stations. Then they let shops open on Sundays. Now we have to have an election on Wednesday! The place is going to the dogs, mark my words. Top scoop from WAToady. But I fear asking people to give up their lunch break to vote could lead to nasty spats everywhere.

The Mysterious Case of the Incorrect Picture Caption: How Did It Happen? Police watchers were baffled this morning when, over their toast, they saw a report on page 7 of Teh West with a photo allegedly showing Assistant Commissioner Gary Budge. “Gary? Is that Gary? It looks like Inspector Barry Mann.” Gary, Barry – what the hell! No stress!
